Anyone played around with cooler-than-75ºC sparge temperatures?
Instant hot water here is 60ºC so I'm trying that for this batch. It's after mash-out so shouldn't matter really for enzyme temperatures, and I can't see the viscosity being too different between 60º and 75º.
I see http://braukaiser.com/blog/blog/2009/05/12/cold-water-sparging/ tried 15ºC sparge water, made a bit of a difference.
