This topic is one I have read opposite opinions on. How fast should I let my wort run out of my mash tun? I have read some say, as long as you use the correct amount of water, it shouldn't matter and that faster is almost better, baring getting a stuck sparge.
I have also been told in person from others that the slower, the better.... One person said they ran the exact same brew back to back. He said the first one he collect from the mash tun quickly (10-20 minutes) and the second batch he collected the runnings slowly (60+ minutes). He said his original gravity increased by 10 to 15 points.
My question is what is the real answer? As fast as a you want or as slow as you can?
