So, I'm probably doing this backwards, and I'll be happy to accept that criticism. I'm attempting to enter a recipe for a partial mash that I did this weekend, and I can't seem to get the program to allow me to enter my process correctly. Here's what I did (and I'm happy to modify my process if someone points out a glaring deficiency!):
1. Add about 3 gallons of water to the "mash tun" (no false bottom, so I don't really consider it as a "true" tun), and bring it up to temp (in this case, about 165 F)
2. Put grains in bag (in this case, 3 grains in 3 different grain socks), and hang in the "mash tun"
3. Let grains steep for 45 minutes, occasionally adding heat to keep at proper temp
4. Pre-heat about 2 gallons of water in a separate container (I guess this would be an HLT in all grain?) to 160
5. Drain wort from mash tun to boil kettle, and drop hop socks to bottom of empty mash tun
6. Pour (ok, sparge) HLT water over hop socks, and drain runnings into boil kettle.
I can't seem to figure out how to directly adjust the sparge amount. I either get 0 gallons or 4.83 gallons.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
