Title: smoke milling question
Post by: hassettbrew on March 24, 2017, 01:11:33 PM
has anyone milled peated malt or smoked malts with noticable unintentional smoke/peated malt flavors on later brews ? I am planning a smoked malt  beer but I dont want my mill to end up tainted with a smokey flavor ?
cheers

I've made loads of smokey beers (though never with peated, though you probably won't be using very much of that), I've never had a problem.

Err, why not wash the rollers and the mill?

You mill the dark/smoke malts first then the pale malts. You shouldn't get any taint of the smoked malt left over

I did 2 smoked malt brews in a row and then did a double brewday of 2 pale(ish) ales on Friday, now you have me worried.  ;)
