Brewed an AG porter yesterday. The grain we ground way to fine, other batches were good, should get better effect. with finer right? No, nothing but stuck sparge big time. We have 10 gal tun with hose. Had to stir and scrape away from hose, I figure that was bad just stirring up the sugars. Had to add third water for batch sparge just to get the gallons, it was so thick. Used smack pack yeast, usually get bubbling in 6 hours. Been 24 and nothing. Did we not get sugers when mashing? OG was 1.072. Second, are tannins something to worry about if too hot? I thought they were, but heard that thought was old school and not true.
