So I brewed my Belgian brown today and I have a question about the pre-boil volume. I add the amount of water exactly that brew smith tells me to ( mash in, and sparge)... and I batch sparge emptying the tun first. I always end up with way more wort than I should. I was targeted to achieve a 6.8 pre boil volume, and ended up with 7.65.... Am I supposed to shut the mash tun valve when I approach the recommended boil volume or drain the tun completely? This obviously has dropped my efficiency to low levels and has effected the desired outcome of my beer. Please help!!!
