Raw/ungelatinized corn requires a cereal mash. 10% malt at 78°C is sufficient to [[liquefaction|liquefy]] maize [[starch]]. Higher temperatures result in lower extraction since retrogradation takes place if there starch is not liquefied by enzymes.<ref name=esslinger/>
Raw/ungelatinized corn requires a cereal mash. Since the typical gelatinization temp is 70-75°C, 10% malt at 78°C is sufficient to [[liquefaction|liquefy]] maize [[starch]]. Higher temperatures result in lower extraction since retrogradation takes place if there starch is not liquefied by [[enzymes]] (alpha-amylase).<ref name=esslinger/>
