    Concept of fly sparge

    Thanks for opinions, stpug and Ravenshead. There is no need to use clear water, since circulation allows to use liquid created during mashing. Certainly it may seem similar to RIMS/HERMS, but here, surface of the liquid in main vessel does not have contact with grains, just liquid going from...
