I was doing some all-grain brewing in my kitchen today. Here are two problems I ran into. I thought posting them here might help out others.
1. When you are heating up your sparge water, make sure the burner that you turn on is the same one your pot is on. Otherwise, you may spend 20 minutes, like i did, trying to figure out why the water's not getting any warmer.
2. When you are transferring hot liquor from your mash tun into a boil kettle that has a ball valve on it, make sure the valve is closed first. Unless you REALLY like cleaning the stickiest substance known to man off of your tile.
It's been one of those days.
