So I just finished sparging my first AG, its on its way to a boil now.
First, I dropped my thermometer into my full hot mashtun, lucky I have 2.
Then I tried to sparge but epically failed. I have a square mashtun and just put some tube in and drilled holes in to sparge with, the holes clogged immediately and I had zero flow. Lucky I had a 5 gallon paint bag and a spare bucket, so I strained through that, then added the second thing of water and reintroduced the grains, waited 10 minutes then repeated the paint strainer trick. Hopefully my OG isn't TOO far off and nothing else goes wrong.
