So earlier this week i was at the LHBS talking with the guy working about growing hops etc etc. and i grab my 10lbs of 2 row pale and some choclate malt to make a porter. So just my luck i keep talking and dont crush my grains.
Now fast forward to today i set my mash tun up with hot water to get ready to mash and notice my grains arnt ground up.
So question is can i get by not crushing them by.... mashing longer?
Btw i just rolled the grains in my hands to half ass crush them and tossed them in. Did i fark myself over with this beer or am i just paranoid an RDWHAHB
