Uugghhh, Copper that doesn't make me feel good. Have you read any about mashing longer, possibly instead of dunk sparging? Or mash temp? You mentioned upping the grain amts...have you seen a formula for that? How much would you add? Sent from my iPad using Home Brew

So Northern Brewer has a Quad Core kit. Basically a way to do 4 small batches at the same time. I love doing beer flights. Wouldn't this be a great way to try a bunch of different beers without being stuck with 5gal of something? Am I missing something? You just use a fifth of any 5gal...
