<p>Maltytasking: /* External Links */</p> <hr /> <div>__NOTOC__<br /> [[image:Mash_paddle.jpg|right|thumb|Mash Paddle]] <br /> <br /> <br /> A '''mash paddle''' is a device essential to mixing in your strike water and breaking up dough balls (dry pockets of [[malt]]) during the [[mashing]] process. This a very basic piece of brewing equipment, and it is difficult to do all-grain brewing without one. <br /> <br /> A mash paddle has three basic parts: the handle, the shaft and the base. The handle is used to hold the paddle while stirring. The shaft is used to extend the base into the hot mash. The base is the part that does the important work, namely stirring the mash.<br /> <br /> Mash paddles are made of three different materials: wood, plastic and metal. Most commercial version are made of either plastic or metal. Many do-it-yourself homebrewers choose to craft one out of wood, usually maple or oak. They usually have a hole in the handle to facilitate hanging it up after the brew session is over.<br /> <br /> ==External Links==<br /> * [http://www.maltytasking.com Malty Tasking, LLC] - Personalized Mash Paddles [[Image:NHOTY.jpg|right|Award Paddle]]<br /> <br /> <br /> [[Category:Equipment]]</div>

<p>Maltytasking: /* See Also */</p> <hr /> <div>An '''International Bitterness Unit''' (IBU) is a measure of the bitterness in beer. One IBU is equal to one milligram of isomerized alpha acid per liter of beer. Isomerized alpha acids are the main bittering acids derived from [[hops]]. IBU's can be estimated using one of several equations if one knows factors such as the alpha acid of the hops used, boil time and [[specific gravity]] of the [[wort]].
