Chris is right! Whether it works or not you should put down another ferment anyway. Always stay one step ahead. This way, if it doesn't work, you'll have a glass of home made to cry into. Kiwi Bruce

Re: Burn wash leaving burnt taste
When mashing corn I've come to be lautering before the ferment instead, seems easier to manage than separating beer from heavy sediment. My third rinse is still about 8°Bx so boiled that to reduce it, with some sugar.
Forgot to stir, burnt its bum. Yes I chucked it. Could it have gone into the ferment and got cleaned in the strip and spirit runs?
