Second batch Ag going up this weekend.. First had 9 pound grain bill and this one will have 11 + . First went well although slightly off on OG/FG but wandering about the strike/mash water volume this time round. Using beer smith at 1.25 qt/pound and the roughly 3.5 mash / remaining 3.5 gallon sparge volume seem small for the extra 2 pound grain.. Seems like this will give me a thick mash and very small volume to split for batch sparge?? alittle confused. doc
