Hi all, I am in the planning stages here, and I am trying to write down my process from start to finish to identify any equipment I may have missed on my list.
I am intending to mash using a 6 row and potato mix (or potato and enzymes even). Hot water will come from a propane hot water on demand source.
So my questions are these:
1. What happens after mashing? Should I plan to do a boil, similar to how one would prepare beer wort? or do you chill, and pitch right out of the mash?
2. If I do need to chill, what do you use to chill? Wouldn't a plate chiller get plugged up with the grains/potato? Chill coil like home brew?
THANKS EVERYONE!

Already setup some training at a local college... Just trying to work on a business plan, and equipment is part of that (gotta list the stuff I am going to spend money on).
Anyways, I guess it doesn't hurt to plant to buy a boil kettle with a glycol jacket and a big huge chiller.
But, that being said, anyone have opinions? I've done a bunch of no boil beers, and they turn out sour usually (thats the goal).
