I started THIS process to make a caramel malt with pale 2-row. Cliff notes:
1. soak grain for a few hours
2. convert starches to sugars in the oven at typical mash temps
3. dry grain at slightly warmer temp
4. roast to desired level.
I'm currently at step two and the following question hit me, "Am I'm supposed to be doing this with un-milled grain, instead of milled grain?"
Can anyone weigh in and give me a realistic expectation of what I'm going to end up with by making caramel malt with milled grain?
