So, I've made one batch of AG thus far (bottled last wknd) and understood a majority of the "new" steps. Now, I've got a recipe I'd like to make and it requires a mash at 122F for 25 min and 152F for 90 min. Here's the rookie question...how do I pull this off?? It's not clicking for me. I'm getting confused w/ the two different temps! :drunk:
Thanks for any help!!
 
First off, it doesn't really require that 122F step if you use well modified malts. That temperature is a protein rest and most often isn't necessary. Hint: Most US or Canadian malts are well modified,
 
Agreed, I would just do a single step mash at 152oF but if you want to post the recipe other thoughts could be offered

If you have a tun that you can apply heat to it is straight forward... Mash apply heat and mash. If you are using a cooler tun then it gets a little more tricky... Can be done tho. Having the recipe would help to come up with a solution. But as others have said... The multiple rests are probably not needed and single infusion will work with today's grains.
