My brew pot holds about 3 gallons. So far I have only done extract brewing kits. After steeping the grains in a bag I let them drip for a while, then added the extract and started boiling. I found a lot of additional "goodness" dripping from the bag later. (I read somewhere not to squeeze the grainbag so I resisted that). On my next batch I steeped the grains in only 2.5 gallons, and then rinsed the grainbag with .5 gallons of hot water into the brewing pot before continuing. Is there anything wrong with doing this?
Thanks, Patrick
