    Planning to do a partial grain batch this weekend, but a little short on time to get everything done. Has anyone tried mashing your grains a day ahead of time (like Friday night), putting the wort in the fridge and the continuing with the process the next day (Sat morning) with my extracts?

    Could likely be done, you might want to heat the fresh wort up a bit to say 200 degrees to kill any nasties prior to storing it.

    I'm going for it. Doing the mini mash right now. Will sparge, bump temp up past 170 then put it into the cooler until tomorrow morning at which time I'll add the rest of my water, extracts and boil away. Think it should be fine.
