I want to steep some flaked oats in my next batch.
From what I understand they need to be steeped with munich to convert the starch to sugar.
I was planning on a half pound of each. Is that ratio ok? Or do I need more munich than flaked oats?
I am planning on mashing them in muslin bag. Add them to a half gallon of 150 degree water. Bring that up to 154 and let that sit for 30 minutes. Drain the bag and sparge with 170 degree water.
Do I gain anything by doing this in a separate kettle then adding to the main boil kettle or should I just do it all in the boil kettle?
Should I figure out the correct strike temp so the grains are at 154 right way?
Is 154 where I should do the rest? Do I want to try to do a multirest mash at 104 - 140 - 158?
Thanks
