This is my first partial mash beer.
The instructions say to soak the grains in 2 1/2 gallons of water @ 155 degrees for 45 mins. After that to dunk the bag a few times in and out and then place a strainer on a pot and put the grain bag in that strainer. It then says to pour 1 quart of water per 2 lb of grain and allow the bag to drip into the pot...
My question is... do i place the strainer over the same pot that i steeped the grains in, or do i use a new pot??? If i use a new pot it seems like i'll only have a gallon max of liquid...
Sorry if this is a dumb question...
Thanks for the help!
