OK, Ill try to make this easy. Myself and my nrew buddy are brewing today. Its her turn to be the brewmaster, so Im just her lackey for the day. We have reached an ambiguous point in the process and i need advice. here's the recipe instructions verbatim:
"To collect wort from mash, recirculate about 2.5 qts of wort, then add 180 water to cooler until its full. Draw off wort and add to brew pot until the liquid level inj the cooler is just above the grain bed. Add 180 water to fill cooler again. Repeat this proccess untill you have ciollected 2 gal of wort."
Ok, First question is this, The guy at the brew store said "cooler" refers to the brew pot. Yet in the same sentence, the two are differentiated. Could some one please explain this part of the process in laymens terms? I know, Im a newb to brewing, but thanx.
