Cristalián de España, as the text is referred to, was printed twice in its full book form, four parts and 304 folios. It was also well-received outside of the peninsula, and published twice in its Italian translation. This incunabulum is quite a contribution to the chivalric genre for many reasons. It is not only well-written and highly entertaining, but it is the only known Castilian romance of its kind written by a woman. This detail cannot be over-emphasized. Chivalric tales have been enjoyed for centuries and throughout many different mediums. Readers and listeners alike had been enjoying these romances years before the libros de caballerías reached the height of their popularity in Spain.

  • How-To-Partial-Mash.Pdf
    Partial Mashing Partial mashing, sometimes referred to as mini-mashing, may appear similar to steeping specialty grains, but the crucial difference is partial mashing actively converts a bulk of the grain starches into fermentable sugars while steeping grains provide minimal fermentable sugars to the wort. In other words, the base malts that are soaked in a partial mash usually replace up to half of the malt extract normally used in an all extract or extract with specialty grain recipes. The benefits of partial mashing affect brewers of all skill levels. New brewers experiment with partial mashes to get comfortable with the mashing process before moving to all-grain brewing. Apartment and small-space brewers are attracted to partial mashing because of the minimal equipment it requires while still being able to mash some base malt. Homebrewers of all skill levels who utilize mostly extract will sometimes partial mash in order to use grains that require a mash step. Converting to Partial Mash For the purpose of this partial-mash example, we will be using the recipe used for the extract with specialty grain tutorial, Port O'Palmer Porter. In this recipe, there is 6.6 lb (3 kg), or two cans, of liquid pale malt extract, where most of the fermentable sugar for the wort is derived. For the partial-mash, reduce the liquid malt extract to 3.3 lb (1.5 kg), or one can, and the remaining fermentable sugars will be extracted from pale base malt during a mini-mash process. To determine the amount of base malt needed to replace extract, two conversions can be used.

  • Brew in a Bag (BIAB)
    Brew in a Bag (BIAB) For many homebrewers, one of the most intimidating aspects of all-grain brewing isn't learning to mash or worrying about efficiency, but the money needed to upgrade to the necessary equipment. There are alternative means to all-grain brewing that do not involve building or purchasing a mash tun and additional kettles, one being brew in a bag. Brew in a bag, commonly referred to as BIAB amongst the homebrewing community, is a form of all-grain brewing that eliminates the need for a separate mash tun and allows a brewer to conduct the entire brewing process in one kettle. What Is Brew In A Bag? In simple terms, brew in a bag is a form of all-grain brewing that can take place entirely within your boil kettle. The grains are placed in a bag which is submerged into the kettle for a mashing process (hence the name, brew in a bag). When the mash is complete, simply pull the bag of grains out, much like you would an oversized tea bag, let it drain of all the leftover wort, and continue on to the boil. That is it! The method of conducting the entire process in one kettle with no additional sparges is known appropriately as single-vessel, no-sparge brew in a bag. From this most simple point, homebrewers can add sparge steps, which will involve additional kettles, amongst other customizations. Because of the simplicity of the process and equipment, BIAB has become a popular means of all-grain brewing for homebrewers new to mashing, living in small confines, pinching pennies, or brewing small batches.
