Hello,
I've been reading through archives and figured I would just post this question because there is so much info about this, I'm having trouble deciding the correct answer.
I'm batch sparging my all-grain brews in a 10 gallon rubbermaid MLT.
I'm confused on determining the temperature for my sparge water. I don't do a mash out, so I realize I need to heat the grist above 170 for sparging but how do I calculate the temp for this. Can I do this in beersmith??
I usually just guess and I add sparge water that is about 180. What is the easiest way to determine this because I'm sure if you do 2 or 3 batch sparges of different volumes, this would be a factor also, right?
Thanks.
