Dead Space

How would/do I measure the deadspace in my mash tun?

Measure in 5 pints / a couple of litres (whichever system you work to) of water then measure what you get out of the tap. Subtract one from t'other.

Do dead space MT calculations account for the grain or not? :wha:

Depends what calculation you use. I use a separate fudge figure for the grain absorption ratio :thumb:
