I've heard the venerable Jamil mention in two separate broadcasts that you can mash rice to make a starter wort as rice produces maltose when mashed. I'm interested in trying it out as I don't have quite enough barley to make the size batch of starter wort I'd like.
From the little I've found I'm thinking of using about 30% rice to 70% barley to give it the sufficient diastatic umpf.
Has anyone tried this out? Any advice?
