    Smashes are a fantastic way to go, particularly if you want to evaluate a new (or new to you) hop variety. Even when you have the equipment and skill to do crazy stuff like triple decoctions or sours or whatever. I regularly go back to the good old smash, drinking an (almost) smash with wai-iti while I'm waiting on the latest oatmeal stout. Lots to be said for the KISS approach.

    I once did a "smash" beer with "maris otter" & "simcoe" hops, wasn't great lol was a bit cat pee like, haven't ventured back to smash beers but now I'm experimenting with "Golden Ale grain bill" with UK/England Hop additions, single hopped. Cheers!!

    @michaeljames3509 Před 2 lety

    Yes, you skipped a number of steps, you skipped the steps that are used when ale and lager are produced and that's why you made the easiest beer that anyone can brew. The single infusion method is the quickest and simplest brewing method on the planet and that is why it is used by moonshiners. The brewing method, brewing ingredients and brewing techniques in home brewing came from moonshiners during Prohibition and were used for making moonshiners beer that went into a still. A recipe that recommends high modified, malt, rest temperatures at 149, 150F, fermentation temperature above 55F, high power yeast and yeast nutrient, clones authentic, moonshiners beer. Any recipe that recommends single temperature infusion clones moonshiners beer and the only thing that will turn moonshiners beer into ale is a magic wand.
    Conversion doesn't occur at 149F liquefaction occurs and that's when Alpha releases simple sugar, glucose and sweet sugar from simple starch, amylose. At 149F Beta rapidly denatures. Beta is responsible for conversion, which has nothing to do with starch. During conversion at 140F, Beta converts glucose into fermentable, complex sugar, maltose and maltotriose. Maltose and maltotriose are the sugars that produce ale, glucose only makes the alcohol in beer. When conversion occurs, secondary fermentation takes place due to maltose. The conversion step is skipped by moonshiners because they don't need to spend time on a step that converts, highly fermentable, glucose, that is already present in the extract, into complex sugar, purchase a secondary fermenter, and have to wait for secondary fermentation to occur when an enzyme in yeast converts complex sugar back into simple sugar, glucose, so moonshiners skip conversion. To ensure that Beta gets wiped out they use 149F. When the conversion step is skipped the beer is moonshiners beer regardless of the title on a recipe.
    To offset the drying and thinning that occurs in beer made from low temperature mashing the steps that forms body and mouthfeel in ale are used. Moonshiners aren't concerned with body and mouthfeel, and they skip the steps. In the infusion method brewers throw away with the spent mash the richest, starch in malt, called amylopectin, that contains tasteless, nonfermenting, complex sugar and pectin, which forms body and mouthfeel. Moonshiners sell the starch for making baking ingredients. To take the place of amylopectin recipes recommend ingredients that loads extract with Beta Glucan and protein sludge, which reduces the quality and shelf life of beer, and to get rid of the goop finings are purchased. To ensure that you get all of the sludge out of a grain bed make sure you squeeze as much as possible out of the grain bag.
    To produce pseudo, ale and lager the step mash method is used. Let's say there is a brewer that wants to produce beer that can honestly be called ale and he uses the step mash method and the more expensive, malt that goes with the brewing method, then, let's say there is a brewer that uses single infusion and less expensive, malt and produces quick and easy moonshiners beer that he calls ale, which brewer is more honest?
