when using grains and the recipe says to steep with 2.5 gal and then sparge with 2.5 gal, couldnt i just steep with the full 5? i was just wondering on if sparging was really that necessary.
How much grain are you working with?
In defense of the OP- my "CLONE BREW" book has several "Extract" recipes that instruct the homebrewer to steep specialty grains (not base grains) and then sparge.
