WARNING: Kettle losses > 2% detected which throw off OG calculation for extract/partial mash recipes in batch target 'fermentor' mode. Solution: Reduce kettle losses, misc losses and hops absorption in equipment profile, OR set batch target to 'kettle' and do a full wort boil. See batch target FAQ.

Notes

"Crystal malt" is malted buckwheat.
It was prepared by wetting the buckwheat groats (purchased form a co-op health food store) grain in strainer for approximately 2 days, rinsing about every 8-12 hours, until the rootlets/sprouts are about slightly shorter than the length of the groat. This keeps the grains moist, and also rinses away any molds that may also be growing.
I air dried the groats on a cookie sheet for a day before oven drying at "warm" heat for 6-8 hours, then increasing heat to 250 for 2-4 hours to caramelize the sugars in the dried groats.
They taste mildly sweet, like grape-nuts cereal, and have the same texture.
