Hey,
So I really would like to knock up a begian wit tomorrow. I have a recipe which looks right up my street.. but it asks for 2-row American Malt.. which I'm out of. I have Marris Otter Pale. Can I substitute?
It also asks for Rice Husks to not block the Mash Tun. I don't have any Rice Husks and can't get any by tomorrow. Is there anything else I can use? I understand that the Rice Husks don't adjust the flavour at all, and are just to stop the mash tun blocking, however I have a false bottom.. Do you think I'll be okay to skip out the husks?
Now I come to check, I actually don't have flaked oats either I have flaked wheat, but not oats. Could I use flaked oats off the supermarket shelf? Porridge oats?
Cheers,
Jon
EDIT: I do have malt wise:
Belgian Munic Malt
Rhar White Wheat Malt
Extra Pale Lager Malt
MO Pale Malt
MO Extra Pale
Caramalt
Weyermann Carahell
Cara Vienna
Dingemans Cara Vienna
Weyermann Cara Munich
Flaked Wheat
I was going to use saaz hops for this as it's not really supposed to be a hoppy beer.
