Blending different recipes?
Posted: Sat Nov 18, 2023 4:46 pm
Advice please
I have 7 litres of Hearts of the Appalachian sweet mash recipe from the Tried & Proven section. I followed the recipe so it’s mostly grain and a little sugar.
I then decided to use the spent grains for a sugarhead. I added 4 kg of corn to it plus 24kg of sugar (raw sugar because I didn’t pay attention in Woolies).
I’m stripping that now. The 7 litres will only come to 10 ish litres at 55% and I was hoping to fill a 20lt keg for aging.
Should I (would you?) blend the sugarhead hearts in to make up the volume?
