Looking for input on how this could backfire......
Every year, I brew a Red Ale for Chiefs' season. Last year I included a box of Kelce Krunch (essentially Frosted Flakes) in the mash.
I would have done that again this year, but there was no Chiefs' player cereal release this year. So I brewed my Red Ale a couple of weeks ago and was getting ready to keg it this weekend.
However....... my brother passed away a couple of years ago, and as I was unexpectedly going through his old sports memorabilia collection today, I found a 2-year-old box of Mahomes Magic Crunch.
I instantly regretted not finding it in time to add it to this year's Red Ale (my brother would have been 100% onboard with this plan). And then I wondered if I could just BIAB the cereal in 1 gallon of RO water, mash for 30 minutes, quick boil, cool, and then add it to the fermenter as a late additon and wait another week to keg.
There is plenty of space in the all-rounder fermenter for another gallon. But I am just not sure if adding more wort (and that type of wort) at this stage may result in something undesirable. Good or bad, I will be drinking this beer for as long as the Chiefs' season lasts. So I would really prefer not to doink it up.
To the extent it would impact you advice, the recipe was basicly Irish Red malts, German noble hops, and Omega Kolsch II yeast.
I appreciate any suggestions anyone may have.
