I did my first 5 gallon all grain batch recently and had a questions regarding the desired temp for sparge water. I heated 2 gallons to about 170-172-ish, which is the most common temp i've seen for most recipes. when i added it to the mashed grains and checked the temp, it went down to around 164-166.
what i was wondering is if the 170 target temp is for before you add the water to the grains or what you want after you add it to the grains. thanks!
