When I received some feedback on my watery bitter (1.013, 3.3%) I knew the issue was my multi-rest mash schedule. After some reading I found that at the 40c rest, beta-glucans are degraded and their mouthfeel properties are lost.
Then there was the 58c rest (15 min) which supposedly breaks down large proteins whilst maintaining the level of medium ones due to the 2 different enzymes (protease and peptidase).
Does this sound correct?
Should I change to a 2-step or single infusion mash?
