So I ordered a ruthless rye clone kit from AHB. I was in a rush tonight and did not pay attention.
I went ahead got my water to temp. and added to the (pre-warmed) tun. Put my grains in and noticed it was much more difficult to stir. I thought the husks looked a bit bigger than usual, but, again, was rushed.
Upon checking my order, I realized I screwed up and ordered UNmilled grain. I don't have a mill. The grain is currently mashing in 152* water. I haven't started a boil yet.
What could/should/can I do? I *know* I don't have enough DME to make up for the lack of gravity. The grain is no longer any good right? Did I totally lose this batch?
Thanks.
