100% Wheat for BIAB Sour? No Boil?

[MarshmallowBlue]

Is it possible to use 100% Red Wheat Malt as base malt for a beer that's going to be pitched with ECY 20 Bug County

This is the Recipe I'm thinking of for 3 Gallons
-----------------
5Lbs Red Wheat Malt
1Lb C120
-----------------
NO HOPs

I was also thinking about doing no boil and just do a 180 Degree pasteurization. What are your guys' thoughts on this?

Yes. The wheat has enough enzymes to convert itself, and you don't need to worry about stuck mashes with BIAB.

Any reason for the 120? I would just do the wheat and keep it simple.

Go for it,just do a good long "mash out" step at about 80c

C-120 is going to be very flavorful and a full pound seems like too much. personally i would go with a quarter (maybe a half) pound.
