Parti-Gyle - Barley Wine and Something else

[hockeygreg44]

This will be my first time trying a parti-gyle style brew. I plan to make a Barley Wine with the first runnings then I am note sure what to make with the rest. Below is my Barley Wine recipe that I came up with.

My plan is to mash in and let it sit for an hour, then fly sparge with a few gallons of water to get close to 5gal. After that I was thinking of adding some additional 2-row, maybe 3 pounds and letting it mash for another hour and then spare like normal. Thoughts on this idea?

My other question is what should I make with my second runnings? I was thinking an IPA because I have a lot of extra hops in the freezer but I am not sure.

if u have the ability to boil 2 batches at the same time u could mash the small 3lbs separately (biab would be easy) so you dont have to wait a whole hour after u just mashed the original batch...But if you only have 1 burner, then stick with your plan so the 2nd mash can convert while the barleywine is boiling.
2nd runnings - an IPA or hopped up Pale Ale would be good. if ur 2nd runnings come out low, can add .5-1lb of table sugar to bump it up and dry it out.
