    Batch Sparge and Temp

    So, what is the reason for batch sparging with warm (168F) water instead of simply pouring cold tap water on for the wash?

    Brewing on well water?

    ajdelange, Thanks for the expanded explanation and concerns. So basically I gather that I may need some additional filters and softeners (which would be desirable even if I were not brewing) to make my water 100% brewing friendly?

    Heading to Germany tomorrow

    Doubt you will find any IPA's. If so they will probably be seriously lacking the hops that you are used to. Try some traditional German beers like Hefe and Dopplebock. Try stuff that you cannot get in the states. Belgium is were the beer is in my opinion.

    Do I crush flacked corn and rice?

    Thanks, I always mash with a bag in my 10 gal cooler. Works great for me and I don't have to use rice hulls or worry about a stuck mash.
