Hello everyone,
This my first post on Homebrewtalk but thanks for all the information you have given me so far. I started brewing with a Mr. Beer kit in early October. I loved it and quickly purchased a better kit and started doing standard kits. I moved on to doing my own extract recipes and then to all grain. Although I have done 4 all grain brews, I'm still very green so excuse anything stupid I might say.
I just purchased a used brew stand with (15 gallon kegs) hot liquior tank, mash tun and brew kettle. I wanted to break it in right and do a Parti-Gyle beer. My plan is to make a Imperial stout and a Southern English Ale with the second runnings. My question is I planned on doing a single infusion mash and fly sparge with the stout. How should I do the second runnings? Should I continue to do the fly sparge until i get a second 6.5 gallons or do another batch sparge, let it rest for 10 mins then start the second runnings with a fly sparge? Thanks!
