I'm brewing a KY Common in a few days and my recipe uses a few pounds of corn grits that are cereal mashed separately before being added to the main mash for the rest of the process. I'm planning on doing three different AG brews on Tuesday and I don't feel like spending a bunch of that time screwing around with cereal mashing the grits. As long as I left the cereal mash fairly runny so it doesn't congeal into one big cake, could I do the cereal mash through the boil the day before, throw the pot in the fridge, then reheat to mash temp and add it to the main mash the next day when I brew? I'd think that the boil segment would preclude any souring...it makes sense to me anyway. Anything I'm missing?
