All Grain Brewing
All Grain Brewing
All Grain Brewing differs from extract brewing mainly in the wort production stage. As an all grain brewer, you will make your wort from malted grains and water. The basic idea behind all grain wort production is:
You soak crushed, malted grains in hot water to change starch into sugar, then drain away the resulting sugary liquid, which is your wort.
Once your wort has been created in the brew pot then everything can be handled in the same way as in extract brewing.
