I ran into the description of "mashing" on Wikipedia. There is one phrase that I think is critically wrong.
"and decoction mashing, in which a proportion of the grains are boiled and then returned to the mash, raising the temperature."
Its my understanding that boiling the grains is not good. It should read "decoction mashing, in which a proportion of the wort is removed from the mash, boiled and then returned to the mash, raising the temperature."

Right?
