Mashing Process

1.Clean the potatoes with a produce brush.
2. Cut the potatoes into small 1 inch cubes and cover them with two inches of water in a stock pot on the stove.
3. Turn the heat to high and boil the potatoes for 15 minutes.
4. Mash the potatoes with a potato masher or an electric immersion blender.
5. Transfer the mashed potatoes and any liquid from the stock pot into a large mash pot. We recommend transferring the potatoe mash to a mash bag. We recommend using the mash in a bag method for this recipe.
6. Add water to reach 7 gallons total volume. While adding water keep an eye on the temperature of the mash. The temperature after adding the water should be around 140 degrees.
7. Add 5 pounds of crushed malted barley to the mash bag while stirring well.
8. Add heat if need and hold the mash at 140 degrees for 20 minutes.
9. Raise the temperature of the mash to 150 while stirring.
10. Mash at 150 for one hour. Add heat to the mash tun while stirring as needed during the mash.
11. Take a gravity reading with your refractometer or hydrometer.
12. If the starting gravity is below 1.065 add sugar until you reached 1.065.
13. Use a wort chiller to cool mash to 70-75 degrees.
