morning all, 3 questions if i may..
where do you lob the adjuncts into the process, in the mash or the boil. the books i have are both silent on the subject but one suggests that any sugars go in the boil halfway through.
Next up whats all this 2 and 3 row barley malarcky and what is the practical upshot ?
just one more.........
I have read that 2 days into fermentation that the head is skimmed and the whole works given a good sound thrashing to re aereate it.. sounds a bit dodgy to me,( certainly not PC) anyone else do that.? To be fair never have much trouble with fermenting, I pitch a hefty yeast starter but just wondered if it would affect flavour or speed.
would be most grateful for the benefit of your knowledge, wit and wisdom please.
cheers. stegnest
