Hi
I batch sparge and use a converted keg as a boil pot.
I find my brew house efficiency tends to be in the 60-69 range.
I have about 1.75 gallons of deadspace under my brew kettles spigot.
I am wondering if I could increase my brew house efficiency by reducing that deadspace. If so, would a dip tube of some sort with a screen help?
Is there a relationship with this dead space to my final brewhouse efficiency or am I dreaming?
