This was only my 5th time brewing so the different steps are not yet solidified in my brain. Add to that I was trying to do this while taking care of a 5 month old screaming baby and I messed up the steps.
I was making a hoppy IPA partial mash and I'd be reading the forums here and the 150-155 temperature got stuck in my head. So what I wound up doing was heating to 152...adding my extract, my bag of grains and then 'boiling' it all at that temp for an hour, adding in my cascade hops at the correct times. But it was never above 155 the entire time and the grains remained in for the full hour. I then chilled to 70, added the yeast and put it away to ferment.
Will this be drinkable? What will the outcome be for how I did this compared to the 'correct' way?
thanks guys
