How fast should the Sparge go? I'm new to AG and did a brew and it sparged fast and I hit my gravity. Should it be a slow drain?
Like stated, good numbers can be had from both types of sparging. Pick the one that best suits your brewing setup and timeframe.
I typically flysparge over the course of 30-45 min for a pre-boil volume of 13 gal and usually net 80% efficiency. I will slow this rate down to an hour or so for higher gravity beers, as I notice lower % when fly sparging at the same rate.

Do you think I would get higher efficiency with batch or fly?
