Just conjecturing, but grits need to be gelatinized. Cereal mash or boil. Although they will gelatinized at typical mash temperatures it might not take place quick enough to have time to convert. I've done it accidentally a few times - brewday brain fart. It worked out OK, but I wouldn't trust it on a regular basis unless I was doing a really long mash.What do you think you're gaining by using popped corn as opposed to corn grits normally used?
Guessing again but I would think air popped corn should be similar to torrefied grain - maybe the same. It should be gelatinized and ready to convert assuming enough diastatic potential is in your base grains. Interesting and I may try it sometime. Don't know if I would be patient enough to pop 3 - 5 lbs of corn though. I'll ask the wife if I can borrow the clothes drier some brewday.

hmmm - I can't get that image to workwell I hope the clarity improves a bit but it is damn drinkable on these hot days - the stout on the other tap barely gets touched with this puppy nextdoor. Here's a little pr0n even though it's a touch cloudy. There is a definite corn flavour, I think you would get it from grits or flaked as well but definitely not from rice or corn sugar. Worthwhile, very little work and people love that it's made form popcorn.

Is that the ringwood? lots of diacetyl??Try some 1187 to give it that buttery flavor.
