k, so been brewing 1.5-2 years. did 2 batches of extract kits, then me and pickles quickly moved to all grain. in doing a 3 floyds gumball head clone a few weeks ago, I accidentally messed up (picked up 1lb of special b off counter instead of the caravienne sitting beside it), and i decided to experiment. I am now doing 30 minute mashes, vaurloffing for 10, for a total of 40m in mash, and collecting between 6.25-6.5g runnings within 25 minutes (total time from mash in = 65 minutes (fly sparge, single infusion)) with ~76% eff for a 60/40 wheat and ~80-82% for a largely 2 row bill. I have done this about 4 times now (for pale ale type beers with og around 1.053) and have cut massive times off brew day. The last one, I collected 4.5 and put it on to boil, collected another 2g and added to boil pot, and shaved another 25 or so minutes off brew day. i have not had a chance to taste any carbed beers from this process, but do not notice any off flavors. I also recently increased my sparge water temp to 180F. The two times i measured mash bed when done, they were 167-168 which seems ideal. This seems to fit all the "normal" parameters with a lot less time. anyone have any input? what's your experience. FYI the beers i have done this with are more standard type pale ales that don't need to be extra dry.
