hi...i slowly trying to move in the AG direction all be it on a smaller scale...biggest pot i have is 27 litres...mash tun 25 litre esky...i use a large grain bag ..big enough i'd say for 5-6 kg of grain and i figure my current process is a little ordinary...
i mash (with grain in bag) doing a single infusion...no problems there...but sparging..well my method is probably right crap i'd say...i fill the esky again with say 12-14 litres of water at 75/c and swirl the bag around in it a few times...and then bung on the lid for say 20 mins then just tip out the resulting liquid...
boil her up and thats that...
what i'd like to find out (don't mind building a lauder tun ) is what exactly is batch sparging ...i've searched this site and the web but cannot find out the basics of what the hell the process is :blink: ...plenty of info everywhere on the specifics but none on the basics..
cheers ST
