So I have 13.5 pounds of grain for my IPA. At 1.25 quarts per pound that puts me at roughly 4 1/4 gallons for my strike water.
Unfortunately, my mash tun holds only 5 gallons.
How do I resolve this? I was thinking I could do a thick mash and triple batch sparge, or split the grist in half and mash twice.
Which of these ideas is better? Other ideas? How badly would this hurt my efficiency?
