Tips on Batch sparging please.
Im really interested in what a good flow rate from the tun would be when Batch sparging. How long should it take to run 15L from the Tun?
 
I open the tap around 3/4 this get a good run and much reduces the chance of getting a stuck sparg, glenalt i do in less that 20 mins or so
 
i believe a flow rate of 1L per minute is supposed to be optimal. so 15 mins for 15L
 
Hmm, I thought when batch sparging as soon as you have 'clear' wort you can run off quite fast :? could be wrong there :?:
