Hello again,
So, we have brewed a total of 3 - 5 gallons and 1 - 1 gallon. So, on the 5 gallon, the directions typically state to start with 2.5 gallons (or there abouts) of water and then add the rest of the water at the end to get to 5 gallons. My questions is, is it better to go that route (half now, half later) or do the full 5 gallons to start with and then add what is lost in the process at the end before transfer? We have done both ways, but was curious what all of you suggest.
TIA!
