Alright, so this week I'm going to do a partial. I would like to do a full but I don't have the equipment (can't afford it yet). Still, I would like to learn about sparging, mashing, balancing PH using gypsum and CaCO3, starch conversion, various grain types, and all that good stuff. So partial it is.
I have a good idea of the general process...it's just so hard to find a decent recipe for a half mash! So, got any good ones? Open to any style...although a hefeweizen or some sort of belgian wit would be nice. Something refreshing for labor day weekend.
Now, there may be a better option. Is it possible to take an all grain recipe and convert it to a half mash? Maybe substitute a certain number of pounds of 2 row pale grain to light DME or...something?
