Schedule:
I use an unorthodox mashing method. I dump the grist into the mashing vessel (5 gallon Rubbermaid MLT) and top off with hot water to bring the mash to 153 °F and let it set for 30 minutes. Drain off the first runnings, then repeat. Drain off the second runnings then sparge with the remainder of the 8 gallons of water I started with.
