I've enjoyed doing the simple stove AG BIAB's and I've started to brew a german style lager with the stepped mash process - so I'm looking at getting a boiler to make bigger brews and simplify the process even further!
I've surfed the forum and I'm trying to get my head around the Burco mash and sparge (there is a thread but can't see the photos)! Can anyone confirm to see that I'm on the right track?
So here goes.. for a 10L brew for example:
At the moment, using the Stove top - 2kg grain in 6L mash with say 9L for sparging then boil the total amount - fine
With the Burco - do you mash with the 15L to start with, then sparge using the existing wort and suspended grain bag with the temp control set up at 80C? And how long would you sparge the grains for - 10mins?
I would still like to use the BIAB method but in a Burco with no additional stove pots if possible.
Any help appreciated, many thanks. :thumb:
