Hey guys,
I did my first "real" (non-BIAB) AG batch the other day and after a gallon or so had drained, the first runnings and then subsequent sparge runnings slowed to a crawl. They never stopped entirely but slowed down reaaaally sllooowwwwww. I eventually collected 6.6 gallons of 1.048 wort with my first runnings and then two batch sparges of 2 gallons each, but it took over 1-1/2 hours after the mash finished!
Is that normal?
Thanks!
Nick
