So, as the title states, what's the huge difference? When can I click the "Partial Mash" button in Beer Smith? The instructions in a recipe clone I want to use, talk about "steeping" the grains at a certain temperature, and then pouring water over the top to rinse the grains. Isn't that essentially what mashing is?
I know you need specific grains to convert the enzymes to sugar, but how do I know what those grains are, and when I've gone from steeping to mashing?
I can post a list of the grains in the recipe and perhaps I'll technically be doing a partial mash. Specifically, it calls for Flaked Oats, which I've heard numerous times is non-fermentable unless it's been mashed and not steeped.
Thanks
