Pancakes in mash

dendron8

Has anyone tried putting pancakes in their mash? If so, did it produce any pancake flavor?

DBhomebrew

Do you mean maple syrup, or the relatively non-flavor of Bisquick?

I dont mean maple syrup. I am just talking about pancakes.

Not in the mash,but when I was a kid my buddy's mom made these doughy pancakes that would stick to a hook and catch a mess of bluegills! she thought we loved'em.

I can't imaging you'd get much from pancake flour or batter.
But there's a brewery back in the NY town I used to live in that throws a bunch of whole pumpkin pies into the mash while brewing their pumpkin ale.

Maybe treat it like Kavass, in place of the rye bread use a bunch of pancakes.

When I think of Bisquick pancakes and waffles it's vanilla and caramelized batter.
Seems like one could work from there...
Cheers!

I saw a guy on YT who put a whole pan of cinnamon rolls in his mash.

I’d be worried about oils in the batter ruining my precious foam.
There’s a local cider place that places whole pumpkin pies in the fermenter. Of course, no foam worries w cider.

My buddy threw in 12 glazed doughnuts from the bakery in his mash, beer came out pretty good, did have a slight doughnut taste to it.
