Here is how I do it, tell me if this is right. I posted this in an earlier question I think so sorry if you read it.
After the mash is done I collect all the wort into the kettle.
Next I take the sparge water heated to 169F and pour that in until it is at the top
I stir and let sit for 10 minutes then drain that into the kettle
I take rest of sparge water and dump in (whatever's left)
Again I stir and let sit for 10 minutes then drain
Now I'm hoping I figure the sparge water amount correctly but that's another post. What I'm getting confued on is I keep seeing that it should be equal runnings if doing 2 stage (is that what I'm doing? It's two amounts going in). I don't do that for any other reason than the fact that I have a 5 gallon cooler and it can't hold all the sparge water.
Thanks!
