Did you take a gravity reading?

Not sure you hit any starch conversion on the rice?

Sake uses bacteria and polished rice to convert.

I cooked the rice separately for 45 minutes to gelatinize it before adding it to the mash.

Not sure if being mixed with barley adds enzymes needed or not. Amylase is usually needed as rice lacks enzymes. Sake is done By some with 12-18hr mash to get starch conversion.
Interesting project none the less

I've used Jamaican Red Rice for a 7 bbl batch twice.

We would cook it down to a gelatinous goo, boiling it and stirring with  paint mixers in drills. I think it was about 100 lbs worth. Took about 2 hours to get it all in the mash.
The rice didn't add any color and no problem with the run off. We stopped making that beer, to much of a pain to clean everything up, burned on rice sucks.

It was a good drinking beer though.
