Hi everyone,
At what temp should you batch sparge? I generally use water at around 90 degrees. However, I have just read in John Palmer's book that it should be no higher than 77 degrees. My beer turns out fine, but I'm wondering how much better it might be if I use a lower temp. In the the book it says higher temps can lead to astringency.
Cheers in advance for any advice.
