I've only done extract brews before but plan to soon move to all grain. I have two turkey frying burners and two pots... both are 6 gallon. I could build a mash tun but, instead, here's what I'm thinking:
Heat the strike water in one pot... and mash in it via a bag.
Heat the sparge water in the other pot... after mash is completed, transfer bag (and grain) to sparge pot. As sparging is occuring, I'd be cranking the heat to the first runnings in the mash pot.
After sparge times out, remove the grain / bag... but, instead of pouring the sparge water into the first pot, pour the heat to the sparge water with the separate burner.
After both have boiled down a bit, put them together in one of the pots to achieve target volume.
What do you-uns think of that? Wild idea?
