30. Revenge Wheat (fest)

Let’s get back at the catastrophe from yesterday. This time try with a single decoction to avoid having to raise the temperature in the pot while mashing. Unfortunately, the mash got stuck again while sparging, but I managed to get 17L of wort out of it anyway.

2,5kg pale wheat malt

Mash in @ 50°C
Protein rest for 23 min @ 50°C

Single decoction with 15 min rest @ 75°C, boil for 20 min. Decoction was too thin, should have been a bit thicker.
