I would start with batch sparging. The other advice I would give is to buy 5.2 from 5 Star Chemicals. It is good way to control your mash ph while you are figuring out everything else. Mash ph plays a big role in the outcome of your beer. You can test it and try to adjust it, but at this point 5.2 does it really easily.
