I know most kits say to steep your specialty grains at 155° for 30. Should you then "mash out" with 10 minutes at 170°?
And I have been bringing my water to 160 or so then adding the grains which drops it to 155°. Is this correct or should I put the grains in and then heat the water and time the 30 minutes once the watt reaches 155°?
I have brewed 2 kits so far and neither has had much body and has been fizzy with little head. I think I am following property sanitation.
