I made a Belgian Saison last night, somehow I steeped the carapils and unmalted wheat at 180 deg F instead of 155 for 30 minutes. I did NOT boil them...the highest they reached was 180 and by the end of the 30 minutes it was 170ish. My guess is that my beer will turn out just fine since I didn't boil the grains...but is there any negative effects from steeping too high? And if I would have reached a boil what would have happened?
Thanks and happy turkey day!
