Hi Guys,
I'm running a Coopers Pale Ale AG on the weekend and was thinking instead of chucking the spent grains in the bin why not try a whisky mash of sorts and kill two birds with one stone! It's about 5kg of grains. Plan is to add 5kg of sugar, some DAP, a crushed multivitamin, and 50-80gms of bakers yeast. The mash will still be quite hot from the sparge out (I'll just sparge for a bit longer and fill the mash tun up as I'll already have 70deg. Water left in the HLT). Has anyone done this before and can offer advice? Is I the worth even doing it considering a lot of the sugars will have been extracted from the grain in the mash process?
Cheers.
