Mash Notes: Derived from Noonan, "New Brewing Lager Beer". A pure infusion/decoction mash with no temperature steps. The book recommends adding boiling water for the second step, though it appears it would come in too high in temperature.
The first two decoctions are from the "heaviest" part of mash while the third is from the "thinnest".
He also recommends you hold Dextrinization until it passes an iodine test (probably more than 20 minutes)
