I've been doing some sleuthing around different forums for big, dark, complex beers and I stumbled on one that includes the following instructions for a sugar addition to the mash. Other then intentionally boiling off summer of the sweet wort and increasing the gravity I don't really see the point in doing this but I find it interesting nonetheless. What do y'all think of these instructions?
Take the first gallon of run-off and mix in one pound of muscovado brown sugar. Boil until the total volume is approximately a half gallon. Add back to the run-off. Mix the remaining pound of sugar into the run-off before the boil begins.
