Mashing
The full mash brewer takes malted grain, steeps it in warm water and then drains it off to produce a malt ‘wort’ – a lovely smelling sticky substance. They then boil it with hops to add bitterness and aroma, cool it and ferment it with yeast to make beer. Sounds familiar? It’s exactly the same process that the world’s best brewers use, just on a smaller scale.
Again, there is a good guide to a full mash brewing session at The Homebrew Forum and good instructions to get you started in Jim’s Beer Kit.
In US-influenced circles, full mash brewing is known as ‘all grain’ brewing.
