In the seemingly eternal road of upgrades to my brewery, I'm looking to employ my pumps more. For years, I've batch sparged, but I have fly sparged in the past with gravity. I've got two Chuggers now, fitted with camlocks.
The question is really about how you vorlauf with a pump, and then start moving wort to the kettle during sparge. Do you just move the hose over? Do you recirc thru the sparge arm? Do any of you use a manifold/3-way valve?
