I am a little new to this and am considering trying my luck at all grain. I picked up a 10 gallon igloo cooler that I would like to go electric. I already have all the materials but had a question about sparging. I know I can bring my temp up slowly with the 110 volt heating element, but when I want to sparge at lets say 180, do I need to have my propane burner bring a kettle of sparge water up to 180 and go from there, or is there an easy way that Im just not understanding? I've been doing a lot of reading, and somebody mentioned bringing the sparge water up to 180 in the electric mash tun and batch sparge, but It seems like that would be a lot of time for the water to reach 180. Any info is appreciated. Thanks.
