I just bought a pound of honey malt to use in a recipe. I was thinking of steeping this but I'm pretty sure it has to be mashed to get the flavor and fermentables out. Am I right on this? If so, can someone inform me on how to do this without all the fancy equipment. I have a 3 gallon stock pot and your ordinary kitchen stuff.
Also, do I have to mash with a base grain too? All I have for grain is the honey malt. I'm going with 6 lbs DME for the base of my wort.
I want to do a honey lavender ale. Anyone have any experience using lavender? Any suggestions? Anyone know lavender's IBU
Thanks for the help.
