This may seen like a stupid question to some people, but how else am I gonna learn? I want to mash in my pollarware 10 gallon brewpot with direct heat. If I mash with the false bottom installed a mash/water ratio of 1:1 would make the mash pure dough since about a gallon and a half of water can fit under the false bottom. Should I use a use a ratio of 1:1 then add a gallon and a half compensating for the space under the false bottom? The alternative (which I have been using) is mash with out the false bottom, transfer to a bucket, install the false bottom, then transfer mash back into the brew pot. Needless to say this feels like I'm working to hard. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
