If someone were to do a decoction mash at 136F, 148F, and then 158F, and beta amylase are denatured at 160F and alfa at 170F, does the denaturing of the enzymes during the decoction boil reduce conversion resulting in a higher FG?
If your goal was a more complete conversions, would it be better to slowly add hot water to raise the mash temperature?
