Well, after 60 minutes of a steady 151 degrees, 15# of 2 row, and a half # of crystal 60 I just don't have the conversion that I should. All that grain is in about 3-3.5 gallons of water. The water is still a little hazy, and a refractometer reading came in at 1.030. I am planning to let it sit another 15-30 minutes, maybe with the lid off to try and get the temp down a couple degrees in hopes that a lower temp could help my issue..
Any ideas as to what I can do to get my starches into sugars ASAP?
I use BIAB btw, and plan to tea bag the bag of grain in warmer water to sparge, but the refractometer reading has me pretty dissapointed at this point. I'm obviously new to AG, so any help is greatly appreciated.
