The recipe I'm about to brew suggests a 170-deg. mash out, and I do batch sparge.
Disregarding whether or not mash out is actually necessary, do I figure the mash out water volume against the general 1.25 qt/lb or do I do the mash at 1.25 then mash out volume is above and beyond that and reduce batch sparge volume accordingly?
So, what I have in brewsmith (in round numbers) is 12l @ 164 for the mash, then 6l @ 209 for the mash out, and 13l @ 168 for batch sparge. Sound about right?
