I am brewing tomorrow for the first time with rye. My rye is about 9.2% of the grist. I am looking for the beer to come out crisp and more dry than malty. I usuually mash at about 152 for 60 minutes, but thinking of mashing at 150 degrees for 60 minutes. Is this too low?
here is my breakdown
Briess 2-Row Brewer's Malt 8 lbs, 0 oz lbs oz
Briess Flaked Rye 0 lbs, 15.2 oz lbs oz
Gambrinus Dark Munich 0 lbs, 8 oz lbs oz
Weyermann Pale Wheat 0 lbs, 6.4 oz lbs oz
Mt. Hood Pellets 2 oz @ 60 mins oz @ mins
Hersbrucker, German Pellets 1.7 oz @ 15 mins oz @ mins
