Reverse FooMan WBS Prep * 7
    #24884022 - 01/01/18 09:51 PM (6 years, 27 days ago)

Reverse FooMan WBS Prep


Simply Put, I do everything the same way FooMan preps his WBS. The only Difference is I do my rinse before my simmer. So I'm just gonna adjust his original tek to reflect that difference.

=================================================================================


Edit: I have made a few changes to the wording of this post. It was suggested to me by another member that the "Soak & Simmer" title may make people think that this is a 2 step process, it's not. I have also changed the word "soak" to "steep" where appropriate because that's what you are actually doing here.

OK, first off, this method that I am about to explain isn't anything new or revolutionary. This is just the way I prepare my WBS prior to PC'ing. It is basically just steeping your WBS, which is soaking it at near-boiling temperatures. This hydrates the WBS in a fraction of the time it takes for 12,24,48 hour soaks.

Before you start, get your quart jar lids set up with your inoculation holes, Tyvek, polyfil, micropore, SFDs, etc. I'm not getting into detail on that because there are a bunch different ways that you can set up your lids.

The first thing I do is take my quart jars and fill them a little less than half way with my dry WBS:



You want to do this for however many jars you'll be preparing. The WBS I'm using here is Pennington's Brand Finch Seed. This will work with just about ANY brand of WBS.

Then rinse the seeds well:



The next step is to get a pot of water boiling on the stove. You want it at a full rolling boil:



Once it's at a rolling boil, turn off the stove and move the pot to another burner. Then take your quart jars of dry WBS and pour them into the just boiled water:



The reason for moving the pot to another burner is that the one you used to boil the water on is still very hot and I find that I get more bursted grains if I don't do this. With a gas stove you probably wouldn't bother with this step. I am also using a small pot filled only about half way with water. You will need a pot big enough to hold your WBS and water. Remember, the water will rise when you add the seed in! :blush:

Then put the lid on the pot:



The lid should be tight fitting because you want the steam to be held inside as well as possible.

Now you just wait for about 30-60 minutes. You can let it go longer, even all day. The good thing here is that you can leave your house if you want because you're not leaving the stove on or having to keep an eye on the pot for any reason.

Then open the pot:




Pour the pot out into a strainer:



I myself don't wait a half hour or anything for this step, I just shake the the strainer like a chef does on the cooking shows until I don't see more than a drop or two of water. :thumbup:

Once this is done, load up the jars:



The seeds will have expanded now, so just divide them evenly into however many jars you used. Some brands of WBS may expand more then others depending on the types of seeds used. As you see here, what was once a little less then half full is now a little over half full



Once they're filled, cap the jars and put foil, coffee filters or whatever else you use to stop water from dripping on your lids and place them in the PC.



I cook the jars for about an hour @ 15-20psi. If your PC maxes out at 15psi cook them for 90 minutes:



Once the time is up, I turn off the stove and leave the PC overnight or until all it cools completely. It's best if you don't open the PC to remove your jars until your work area is ready- SAB/ flow hood and transfer the jars directly into the work area from the PC.

The finished result:



Note: If it comes out of the pc a bit clumpy, Just shake the shit out of it before you knock it up. That should break the grains up. :super:


Some Examples of my jar's I've prepped this way. and a few results.

With birdseed and most other grains rinsing is beneficial.  Whole oats are the exception.  They do fine without a rinse.

Nice, will try this. You didn't mention it, but I assume you scoop out floaters after the 1 hour soak?

updated OP, noticed that the grains came out a bit clumpy after my last PC, batch but that's okay, it can be fixed simply by shaking the grains and or hitting on your hand few times before you knock it up. Just like you do when you shake the grains when its partially colonized.

I personally love my grain prep tek but its old school and takes 2 days to complete. I usually prep 20#s of WBS at a time and pressure cook several times in one day or freeze it.
I would need a pretty big turkey pot to simmer 20#s. How ever i am going to try this tek with 2 row brewers grain (malted barley):thumbup:
