Ok when I am done next 4 beers I was thinking of doing a parti-gyle brew day. Don't know why but, it is causing anxiety for me. I have a 2 burner horizontal brew stand. I let my buddy have my other burner stand I had before I had stand built. Now I was just going to do something simple like an IIPA then maybe an amber ale. I was going to do this:
-Strike water so I have enough to get 7.5gal pre-boil.
-2nd strike water would be ready by time 1st running is boiling.
-Add 2nd strike to MT with maybe addition of 1lb of some Crystal.
-When 1st is done chilled and in fermenter I would then add 2nd runnings.
Now I know having 2 burners would make it so I can be boiling at same time but, since this is my first time I want to keep it simple. Plus it would only add another hour to my brew day and would have 2 batches. Now my question is for 2nd batch do you collect 1st runnings and thn sparge just like a regular batch?
Edit-I know there is another thread on Parti-gyle now but, didn't want to jump onto it with another question.
