Found the following but it's for sweet potatoes: "These results suggested that rapid heating of sweet potato mashes to 80°C may be optimal for starch conversion and handling of sweet potato mashes prepared for ethanolic fermentation."

I made a sweet potato alt last year. I boiled the potatoes before adding them to the mash.
