I'd say used flaked maize as an adjunct with some 6-row. I don't know if that's alpha-amylase or beta-amylase. I'd thought about buying some sweet corn from someone selling at a stand, then mashing with base grain.

If you really want a 100% corn mash, try looking around for maize malt. There is such a thing. If your local homebrew supply doesn't sell it, go google for it.
