Ahh... so as long as you're only disturbing the top, say 60% of the mash, the rest does the filtering? One of my brewing buddies uses a large, rectangular cooler for mashing and raking 6 inches down...

I'm curious... do any folks here with RIMS or HERMS type systems rake the mash? That's fly sparging, right? I thought one of the benefits to having the runnings recirculate was to set the bed. Seems...
