I have never brewed before and would like to start with a Hobgoblin Ale clone. I'm pretty clear on the procedure, except for the sparging. My instructions call for "sparging the grains with 0.5 gallons of 150 degree water". Ok, so does this simply mean running 0.5 gallons of 150 degree water through the grains? Or do I need a special setup and let it sit, etc, etc....
Thanks in advance...
I use an old gallon jug for measurements, normally I fill it about 1/2 way up with warmish-hot water and pour it over the grains into the water, normally by the end of it the water coming out gets relatively clear.
Thats what I do at least...
Here are some tips on sparging.
