I know this is a total noob question, but I need to know if I am way off. I just got into all grain and the batch size for many recipes say 5.5 gallons. My carboy is only 5. Is the 5.5 due to residual water stuck in the grain and boil off? Is there only a .5 gallon residual and boil off loss?
Thanks! I am working on building my mash tun. Will post pics on the DIY. Was thinking of throwing a sparge manifold in as well instead of running sparge water through a colander. Excited!
