Hey all! I am wanting to try a cereal mash using 2lbs quick grits, .4 lbs base malt and 1 gallon of water. This would be 2 qts per lb of adjunct and 20% base malt per weight of adjunct. The plan is to let it sit around 158F for 20 min or so, bring it up to a light boil (maybe simmer) for 30 min, cut the heat, then store in the refrigerator overnight until it's time to brew the next morning. Would this end up forming into an unbreakable mass of gelatinous goo or would this be more like cold oatmeal? My line of thinking is use the robobrew to hit the mash temp, toss this in first with a brew bag, let it get back up to temp, then toss the rest of the grains in and treat it like a normal brew day.
I've never done a cereal mash so it's just on the list of things to try for experience tbh. I've heard don't bother with quick grits or minute rice and that's ok. I just want to go through the motions for experience sake is all. Anyone ever had luck with letting this sit in the fridge overnight?
