Fresh corn mash

Looking to do a fresh sweet corn mash and was wondering if anyone has just ground up the entire ears of corn (corn and the cob itself) and mashed it instead of just stripping the corn off the ears and grinding it up and throwing the cob away.

Thoughts or suggestions?

I'm my experience cob is kinda bitter. I went lazy way once ruined whole batch ,worse than scorching. But that was me if you go forward let us know how it goes.

I had a suspicion bitterness might be an issue.
