I've just mashed 6.5kg (14.3lbs) of grain in 16l (17qts) of water and batch sparged with 23l (24qts)of water. I fill the kettle to 30l (32qts) to boil down to 25l
I thought I'd test my spent grain to see what gravity any further runnings should be. So I put another 10L of water in for five minutes. The run off was at 1014. So there is obviously some sugar left in the grain that I could use to increase my efficiency.
I don't really want to collect more wort and increase boil time.
Any suggestions?
