So brough some Biscuit Malt up to boil and took it out and continued with cooking. i HAD NO CLUE Biscuit Malt had to be mashed!

What should I be expecting; Im really afraid now!
 
Biscuit malt is supposed to be mashed, but I've steeped in in the past along with crystal malt and others without any problems. You may get a starch haze if it didn't convert, but otherwise it'll be fine.

Keep in mind that no matter what kind of grains you're using, you don't want to bring them to a boil. You can steep at 150-160 degrees, but you must remove the grains by the time the liquid gets to 170. That's the only concern I would have in this instance.
