So far I have only done extract brews. Quite a few, all 5 gallon, and they have all turned out well, but my stouts, porters and brown ales all lack any kind of head retention. I know that flaked barley should improve that and give it a bit more body as well.
I assume if I am gonna try to do this I will need to add a mashing step for the flakes barley. Anybody know what temp to mash at? I assume 155 F. How long? An hour? Any idea how much flakes barley for a 5 gallon stout?
Thanks
Tom
