Microwave adjunct

Hi. Just curious to know all possible angles to "renew" the four ingredients in beer; what would be the effect of soaking i.e. wheat malt or two row, toasting them in the microwave and then adding a propriate amount to the mash? I've toasted in oven with amazing results...

You're not going to toast anything in a microwave.

I guess you could possibly make a quasi-crystal in a microwave, but temp control is going to take a TON of trial and error.

Its probably as effective as putting all your silverware in there and trying to get it to melt.

I'd imagine the starches would expand and explode like popcorn
