Mashing a recipe that calls for 11.75 lbs. of grain. Papazian suggests 1 quart of strike water for every pound of grain. He then suggests .5 gallon sparge water for every 1 pound of grain. Even after boil off and grain water retention I am left with about 7 gallons of wert. I am shooting for a 5 gallon batch with an OG of 1.050. Do I need this much sparge water with an infusion mash?
