I currently do a batch sparge. I plan on going to a fly sparge system in the future when i go to a temperature controlled mash system. I see most people say that you need to keep 1-2 inches of water above your grain bed when fly sparging. Does this mean that your sparge water volume must equal your pre-boil volume? For example if you normally start a 60 min boil with 7 gallons of wort, you will need 7 gallons of sparge water.
