Shouldn't the munich, wheat barley and oats be mashed?

I have never had it, but based on a tripel I just did... I would guess most of it is the pilsen... like 75-80% 2.5% Oats, and 2.5% Aromatic (or more depending on the amount of pilsen you use.) 15% candi sugar (I see some recipes with as much as 20%). I used WLP500 for my yeast, and have...

Well I was shooting for +50% wheat, and I am still there (~52%) so I am happy!

Hmm... I think I found it... it says 55/45. :-\ Kinda lame it isnt marked on the package.

Nah... Its DME. Packaged by "Crosby and Baker"

Muntons Wheat... I saw some packages listed as like 50/50 or 60/40 or something, and these just say Muntons Wheat. Anyone know if they are in fact 100% Wheat malt?

Wow! Thanks for all the replies. Part of this was for the experience, but I am all about practicality. Will the stepped mash effect this brew at all? Yes, I am looking for body and head retention, and maybe a bit of extra flavor from the flaked wheat. Are your thoughts that the other wheat...

Some notes from the Chat: I'm going to reduce the Choc Malt to .25 lbs, and probably skip the 133 for 10 minutes.

hmmm... seems I should have posted this to 'Recipes/Ingredients' could a mod help me to move my post?

The second picture is what I took after I ran it though the Kitchenaid. Is that comparable to your experience? You think I will have the same issues if I stove top bag it for a partial mash? (4.75 lbs of grain)

Yeah... that is kind of what I was thinking. I watched them put it though their mill... I had some chocolate malt that went through that looks crushed for sure. In any case I only have 4.75 lbs of grains for this recipe... if I have to roll them by hand I will do so. If this Kitchenaid...

There was a small amount of flour.... but I could definitely produce more. And if I had to describe it, I would say a combination of chopped and crushed. The Kitchenaid grinder is a plate grinder like a corona mill.

Note: I have searched the forum and noted the numerous posts were people ask if a Kitchenaid grinder works to mill malt. It seem the overall answer is "probably not" or "don't bother since it costs so much" or "it will take to long" The wife has a Kitchenaid with grinder attachment... cost...

I am going to attempt a stove top partial grain batch, and I would appreciate some comments on this recipe. Lots of ingredients, but I am trying to use some of the grains I have sitting around. *5.5 gal batch* Grain (4.75 lbs total): ***************** 1.75 lb Munich Malt - 2 row 1.00...

I took my kegs apart, and cleaned them well. I then made sure that all the rubber (o-rings and poppets... etc) were coated with grease. This helped a couple of my kegs to stop leaking CO2.

I too had a recent order from Keg connection and have been very happy with the service. I had a bad valve on the air manifold, and Ben was very quick to talk to me about it on the phone, and then send my a new one with extra clamps to get it setup right. I will continue to do business with...

Thanks! I bought the freezer used from a guy at work for $60 + a bottle of mead. To buy the freezer new I think they go for $180-$200. I still have some work to do on it... securing the air manifold and finding a way to keep the co2 tank standing with the regulators attached. (I should...
