Maybe split it with 6 row to up the enzymes. As far as freeze concentration goes its perfectly legal, it is not categorized the same way distillation is, it is a PITA though. I'm not sure about the flavor, but if you just want to get rid of it why not, might be the best thing you ever drink.

How long are you leaving this in primary? Green beer? https://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=77957
