So I'm entirely aware that this is a question for someone far above my brewing experience level but curiosity is what makes us better right? I'm very soon to be the proud owner of an eBIAB setup (in the mail from the Great White North as I type this!). With my new found precision in the way of temperature control I realized that the fabled "step mash" was something that I could incorporate into my arsenal. However, after an admittedly cursory search through the forums I mostly found threads that were several years old amd referred to slightly older brewing methods. The main reason I found in favor of the step mash was that it would help break down unmodified grains better. So I guess my question is this, with the technological superiority of today's grains would I gain anything from a step mash? If so how would I go about converting a single infusion recipe to a step mash recipe?
