cereal mash calculator

Sat Mar 03, 2012 8:23 am

I'm doing a cereal mash for a lambic and I'd like to be able to know what temperature I need to have the my main mash at in order to reach my infusion temp once I mix the two. Anyone know of a calcuation that works or if you can do this in Beersmith?

Mike-
It should be the same calculation as for a decoction.

Here's a calculator from quaff:

See you next week?

Thanks BDawg,

I thought it might be a little different since I'm not mixing everything initially and then pulling the decoction. I'm just starting out with two separate mashes and mixing them together.

Yep, I'll be at Larry's a lot next week!
