Question: Will rice syrup solids convert its starches into fermentable sugars when brewed with sorghum syrup (malt extract)? I ask because I experimented with sorghum syrup as my base adding flaked corn (maize), instant rice and simply could not get the corn nor rice to convert. The second I threw in a small amount of barley malt (not extract) the corn and rice converted immediately from starch to sugars.
So will the rice syrup solids convert? Or even better question, is it already converted from starch to sugars?
