different mash material option(s)

Post by TheonetrueGPS »

Hey all,
I was just wondering if anyone knew of any differences between using liquid molasses vs. powdered molasses. I'm running into a cost issue with the liquid kind and seeking to know if powdered molasses is a viable replacement. All of my research on powdered molasses hasn't necessarily been fruitless thus far but all it's done is to tell me that a) it's sometimes cheaper and easier to get in bulk and b) it's not all molasses sometimes, it may have other stuff in it. If anyone has used powdered molasses or knows about it I'd very much appreciate any kind of feedback!

Thanks all! Cheers and happy mashing!

Well, there is a few threads around discussing (cussing) powdered molly. Use the HDGoogle search and do your research. I think you’ll find the answers to your questions there.

Not trying to sound stupid here, but do you mean within this forum or actual Google? I tried once to search powdered molasses in the forum search bar(stupidly after making this post) and wound up looking at my own question.
