When to rack the wash/mash

Putting older posts here. Going to try to keep the novice forum pruned about 90 days work. The 'good' old stuff is going to be put into appropriate forums.

When to rack the wash/mash

Post by tracker0945 »

There seems to be a bit of confusion as to the best time to rack a wash for clearing.
1) when the S.G. reaches 1.000 or less?
2) after the foam cap collapses?
3) after 3 days have passed?
4) when the airlock stops bubbling?
5) when the airlock bubbles slow down?
All of these have been quoted at various times.

What type of wash/mash do you do and when do you rack?
