Hi!
I'm new to all grain, and I plan my first IPA next saturday (recipe attached) with batch sparge. I'm setting my equipement (see attach).
I think everthing is under control. I mash in a Coleman chest 45 liters with a max of 42 liters of mash volume.
I'm just a little worry about the boil over and foam. As my boil kettle (45cm diameter for 38cm height) is 60 liters, my boil volume is targeted to 50 liters.
After your experiences, is that ok or too close from the top/limit to have a boil over and a messy fight against the biomorphic foam?
Thx in advance for your help and advices.
A future hoppy all grainer!
