Hey all,
I already have a batched planned for Saturday, but I got the brewer's itch something bad (at least I hope thats what the rash is), and I want to try to squeeze out two batches.
I get the house entirely to myself on Saturday for about 6 hours or so, which is easily enough time to do a single All-grain, but I am not sure if it will be enough for two. Due to my current equipment setup I cannot do two simultaneous batches at once, and getting new equipment right now isn't going to happen. I have a couple hours in the AM on Sunday that would give me enough time to boil and cleanup the latter batch.
So I was considering this as a plan: Mash and collect the wort for Sundays boil first thing in the AM, leaving it 24hrs in a sanitized fermenter and freeing up all my brewing gear for Saturdays brew session. Brew Saturdays as planned.
Some reading on the site led me to believe this could lead to souring the wort, but I maintained the temperature of the wort well it could be avoided. I am curious if anyone has done this before?
