I was getting hung up on the heat factor. Let it sit or heat it? I think that while the draining process takes a decent amount of time I could hit it with the flame a little. Thanks for the posts. I have another question, as I am extreamly new to all grain.
Just wondering if I have the batch sparge process correct..???
Mash 1 hour @ 150-158 degree F
Vorlauf
Drain Slowly
Measure amount of collected wort
Calculate amount of sparge water needed
Add sparge water @ 170-175 degrees F
Mix and let settle 10 mins
Vorlauf again
Slowly drain over the course of 45+ minutes
Good enough or am I missing something???
