Just dissolved some sugar in warm water and tipped in a scoop of grains out of the fermenter,see if it works or not....or am I wasting my time :think:

I've got cracked corn and some wheat from the produce store, does the wheat need to be rolled or ground for this recipe?
Does malted barley make a noticeable difference in flavour ?
Also if adding the hot backset back into the fermenter, won't this kill the yeast or do you add another 5g of yeast to start it up again ?
Kind regards,
Victor

Another question is that with each generation what you take out of the lees you put back into the hot dunder to invert the starch into sugar?
How much sugar do you put into the beginning of each generation is it the full 3.5 kg or part thereof to substitute starch which is turned into sugar?
