Hello everyone out there.
So, I do malt my own grains at home, kiln them and grind them myself. (not by choice, but due to the unavailability of anything that has to do with home brewing where I live)
My question is has anyone ever tried to mill and mash home-made malt without separating it from its chits?
If so, I wonder that had any negative impact on the flavor and the aroma of the finished beer?
Se my last 2 batches had the same detergent-solvent-almost-bleachy sort of off-flavor... And I am going crazy trying to trace back what may have caused that?
I brew ales, mostly with us 05 yeast. I use food grade plastic buckets with rigged up spigots for fermentation....
Thanks a lot for any help...
