I received an Extract w/grain kit for a Pale Ale from Austin Homebrew. 7lbs of LME and 1/2 pound each of crystal 60L and American 2-row.
What's the best way to steep this. Normally I would "tea bag" it in 155 degree water for 45 minutes. What is throwing me off though is the addition of 2-row, I have never steeped this, I have done partial mashes with it.
It was my understanding that 2-row required a mash of some sort, why would AHS be putting it in for steeping?![Confused :confused: :confused:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
