Questions: I am doing constant recirculation with direct heat on Mash Tun and my Asco valve/Love control take care of burner on & off. I have a Thermowell that sticks in about 5" about 5" above false bottom. I will turn down gas valve to about 1/4 to lower btu's and for a more stable temperature profile. As no transfer takes place of the wort what steps do I use? Is it all mash in? Once my hour is up I plan on sparging from Hot Liquer Tank while transfering to Kettle until I get 6 gallons (may up to 7 based on real losses including Primay troub loss).
Second Question: If I do a step mash, say 120, 140, 150 ish with the above constant recirculation and no water loss/addition what steps do I use? I am not sure this is actually a decoction as the whole mass is heated equally and constantly.
Anyway any insight helping me find the light would be greatly appreciated as I plan on brewing a Moose Drool clone next Saturday.
Thank you very much for your support and time in helping me kick off my new brew system FrankenBrutus!
