I don't think the definition of the word sparge says that it has to be a totally separate process like everyone is arguing

Old thread I know but I am thinking of doin this in a pot under the false bottom. I don't see how it could scorch the grain there esp while recirculating, any thoughts?

Thanks sd, that clarifies for me. I just ordered a pump and I already have a temp. Controlled electric mlt and I use propane for boiling so I think I'm gonna put them together to build this. My plan is to put the elec mlt on top and add my water to it then set my pid to dough in temp then at...

I guess the first part of your argument answers my ? Only one runoff. But I guess it could still be considered a sparge somewhat BC it is still introducing water at the end of the mash so it isn't instantly homogenous like it would be when you just lift a bag out?

I'm still trying to understand the process, could someone please tell me if this is correct. mash as usual for your one hour or whatever recipe calls for. Then, instead of running off then sparging you add your sparge water and recirculate

I am thinking of doin a two vessel system. I am currently doin biab and love it but since I just ordered a pump for a plate chiller I figured I should try brewing with my pump too. My idea is to use a pid temp controlled e mlt on top that is gravity fed into a propane bk then use the pump to...

But doesn't it just give you a way to mash out?

So you are recirculating during the whole mash time with the entire amount of water used in the batch? If wanted a true sparge and not just a "mash out" then a third vessel is required

Hmm. I don't get it why not just heat up the water in the mlt otherwise whats the pt. of it even having a burner

I'm trying to understand the two vessel gravity/ pump system. so you heat your water to strike temp in in the mlt then add grain then turn pump on and recir. through bk and back up just to keep temp even. Then you turn off pump heat sparge water in bk then recir. Again?

Ben, on your ten gal pots if I have my own ball valve can I just screw it on? Does it have female threads on outside or do you need a nipple?

Cause I would need you use 220v element and I only have 120v in the garage. My breaker panel is way on other side of house in laun. Room:(

Cool I had an idea of putting a e heating element under it for the mash then turning on the propane burner for the boil. Has anyone done that? Wonder if it would damage burner

I brewed it with t58 dry yeast and it took off in like three hrs and after twenty for hours its not doin nothing hope its ok

Think I'll be ordering the ten gallon with steamer from you since I do biab. How far does it sit from the bottom? Sorry didn't mean to double post

Nice!

Nice!! Good price too

Ok I have been through a turkey cooker, a canning pot, a sankey keg which it's very wasteful of propane, and currently a mega pot which is extremely efficient but just too short and fat. What would be a good option? and not the obvious one in the boiler maker BC they are over priced and out of...
