Yesterday, during my brew day I mistakenly mashed too high @ 158F. My intention was to mash at 148F, but I became distracted and made the error. It was about 30 minutes before I realized. I lowered to the temp I mashed at 148 for an additional 50 minutes. My mash efficiency was 83.9% according to BeerSmith.
My question: Is it possible to for the beta-amylase to become active when the temperature is brought down, or once the temp passes that threshold does the activity of that enzyme cease?
I'm asking so I can get a picture of what to expect as a finished product.
Thank you for your insight in advance!
