I've been pondering an automated brew setup, and one area I always trip over is how to handle the dough-in. It's conventional wisdom that you need to stir the mash to eliminate dough-balls....but none of the appliance-level automated systems do that (Picobrew, Grainfather, Brewie, etc.)
So it begs the question, if you recirculate the wort in your mash, do you ever really need to stir it? I'm assuming the answer is no, but would like to hear from some people who have either fully automated their systems, or use a brewing appliance like those mentioned above as to the impact of not stirring the mash.
