Confused as usual. I want to try my hand at making an Octoberfest so I got some Munich and Vienna malt (among others) planning to steep the grain. Using 0.5 lb and 0.25 lb respectively. I am new to all this and remember reading somewhere that munich and vienna malts have to be mashed and cannot be steeped. I asked the woman at the brew shop about it and she seems to think I can steep this stuff. So I am officially lost. I don't want to waste this grain and I dont have the equipment or know how to mash as of yet. Input?
