My efficiency has been fluctuating recently, and I'm wondering if it's something to do with my sparge technique.
I usually batch sparge by recirculating, then draining slowly while keeping the sparge water around an inch or two above the surface of the grain.
I've been reading around and have come across some comments suggesting that in batch sparging you should drain quickly and stir the grain bed either before or after recirculating.
Am I doing something wrong with my sparge? Can anyone suggest some improvements to my batch sparge method?
