I got one of the ALDI coffee grinders and it seems to work well. Although I only tried it on a small amount as my grain was already cracked by my LHBS.
Also put down another batch using my spare fermenter as a sparge vessel and it worked surprisingly well. The only problem was when I moved my ~77C water to the fermenter it cooled down to 70C. When I put the grain in for sparging the temp settled at 75C so Im a little confused what the overall temp goal of the sparge water is. Should the end result with the grain be 75C or should the water be 75C before adding the grain? Or does it not matter too much?
