Getting ready to brew a big beer (DIPA) this weekend. All grain doing mash/sparge technique(first time). Doing some calculations on TastyBrew.com. I know what batch size is (5 gallons). What is the Boil Volume? Is that the total amount of water I will be using for this batch? Or is this the amount used for the mash. My mash water will be around 4 gallons (14.5lbs grain) & my sparge is around 6 gallons of water. For a total of 10 gallons. Thank you.
