hello all,
i brew in a bag in a 32liter in a bucket with electric element and temp controller.
i often have bit of a issue when all the grain is in there to keep the temp steady and evenly though out the bucket.
i would usally mash for 1.5 hours then batch sparge for another 30mins at 80c.
could i split the gain bill in half and mash one lot for a hour and then dump it, then mash the rest for another hour, then sparge that last half for the last half hour at 80c?
is there any effect of doing it this way? just want to get the mashing temp more even and accurate.
i havent brewed in a while but my targets where always a bit off not massively tho , cant remember by how much now tho.
thanks for any help :fro:
