i am making stout and screwed up big time. I ran the flaked barley through the grinder.
It mashed perfect but when put in the sparge bucket not a drop of liquid. I tried everything and had to go to another sparge system. I finally got it done and it is boiling now.
I had to shut off the fire quick at the boil point, foam was coming up FAST. I got it stirred in and got a good boil going again. Hops are in.
Work to do yet to filter and cool so I can put in the yeast.
