I ran into the byo article about doing partial mashes with a 2-gallon cooler and i am going to give that a shot before i get into all-grain (full boils, turkey fryer, 6 gallon pot, etc..). I already picked up some base grains and specialty grains for a chocolate/oatmeal stout. My question is do i have to mash all grain (base, and specialty) in the cooler, since it is limited in size. I am thinking if I don't have to, then i could increase the base grain, and either steep the specialty in the wort before i add the extracts and start the boil, or could i steep the specialty grains in the one-gallon of water that i will be pouring my runnings into from the cooler?
any suggestions would be great, thanks!
