Hi All
Currently I don't have the equipment to Fly Sparge only Batch Sparge.
I'm interested in two recipes of whet beer both by default was with Fly Sparge.
the first one was a "Single Infusion-Light Body-No Mash out" (Fly Sparge) and i just changed the profile to "Single Infusion-Light Body-Batch Sparge" in the Mash area i have one Mash In Step and 3 Steps batch Sparge my questions are:
1. Should I drain the initial Mash In before Sparge (I noticed some Profiles in beersmith specifically call for draining) so if it is not stated I shouldn't drain?
2. Why I have 3 Steps? How long should I wait between each Step? Should I Drain between each Step?
The Second Recipe call for "Double Infusion-light Body" (Fly Sparge) but there wasn't any same profile for Batch Sparge so I created one by Copy the original and changing the batch Sparge to true, the Mash is a 3 Step mash - Protein Rest, Sacchairification and Mash Out and 1 Step batch Sparge with specifically stating to Drain Mash Tun Before (Even that I didn't choose this check Box in the Profile), My questions are:
1. The Protein Rest Step is actually the initial Mash In?
2. Between each Step of the Mash should I drain the Mash Tun?
3. Why in this case I have a Draining step before the Batch Sparge , Why it is added automatically? and why here is a 1 Step sparge unlike the 3 Step in the previous Recipe?
Thanks for all the Helpers and Sorry for this long thread
