Did two batches yesterday. First, a rye IPA that worked like a champ. Second batch I brewed an English bitter. All of 6 lb of marris otter and 1 lb of crystal 40. Threw in some rice hulls just b/c I always do, mashed in at 152. 1 hour later, nothing but a dribble. I use a 10 gallon igloo water cooler with braid. It seems to me that a stuck sparge is just completely random, as I do things that should cause it, like rye, and no problem, but brew a small beer and BAM - no brew for you.
