Hey all,
I don't really understand the boil and sparge runoff volume. For a 5 gallon batch of pumpkin ale it says to have a 3 gallon sparge runoff and 5 4 gallon boil volume. Does that mean I mash with 4 gallons then after I drain it in the pot sparge with 3 gallons and drain that into the pot aswell?
