Can't say that I have.  So what's the plan?

They have a low gelatinization temperature.  Crush and throw them in the mash.  I don't see a reason to do a cereal mash.

Is the difference between this and malted rye just the malting process?

 

I just saw an ad on Ebay that says it can be sued as a winter grass for the garden. sounds pretty interesting for ground cover to be honest.

It's just unmalted rye as far as I know.  Rye grass is a different animal - some warmer  golf courses overseed with it for winter to keep the course playable when warm weather grasses go dormant.

I'm using thesein the next few days.  If my plans don't change I'll do an extended mash, maybe 2 -3 hours.  Any input?  I would rather not mess with boiling and cooling to mash temps before tossing it in the tun.
