Looking at having a crack at my first AG brew on a much smaller scale as money and space aren't on my side. I was going to use the following steps:
1) Mash the grain bill in a pot on the stove (15L Stainless, no tap)
2) Syphon the first runnings into the kettle through a mesh strainer with a chux in it.
3) Add sparge water to the residual grain in pot, stir and let settle, repeat step 2.
Does this seem like a decent plan? Any improvements would be appreciated.
And Finally, since I can't recirculate the wort using the grain bed as a filter, will my wort be cloudy and full of tiny grain particles , and will that affect the clarity or flavour of the finished product?
Thanks guys :icon_cheers:
