I think I may have some subpar pilsen malt and I'm looking to verify this by mashing 1# of this pils for 60 minutes.
When I plug this into BeerSmith it wants me to sparge with 1 qt. of water then actually boil down to 1 gallon to hit an OG of 1.027. I'm not going to do a boil for this little experiment, so the preboil gravity estimate of 1.025 seems like a reasonable goal to me.
Am I doing this even remotely correctly? Any recommendations?
