Lets say I am mashing in at 150f for 60 minutes. In another pot I have 170f of water-
After the 60 minutes- my idea would be to pull grain bag out, let drain a bit- press- push- get as much out as possible- Then letting the bag go back into the pot- and adding the 170f mash out water-(( yes will be higher temp- because of the drop from adding it into mix..)) for the final 10 minute - tea bag / mix / paddle -
do you lose efficiency this way because your still mixing all that new water into the same pot with the original mashed wort?
Would it be better to dual pot ( like I did the first time ) (mash in one, mash out/sparge in other ) separately? I didnt find that to be too hard- but im wondering if I can effectively do it on one pot- and will I gain anything or lose.
Looking at getting the most from the grains as possible- yet not adding any off flavors etc.
