here but you don't have to you could use say three or four smaller fermenters if you wanted to you're going to need about NUMBER_TOKEN maybe NUMBER_TOKEN liters of fermented space in total just be aware that you're not going to be able to use the full volume every fermented you have you're going to lose some volume to head space because you don't want the stuff bubbling over as it ferments and this is an awesome time to tell you about today's sponsor into the am they make these awesome very very cool graphic t-shirts in fact if you've seen that me wearing a t-shirt on this channel and you've thought to yourself that's cool t-shirt it's probably an into the am t-shirt the graphics are just really freaking awesome and the range is intense so pretty much whoever you are whatever you're into they're gonna have something to get your juices flowing and right now they have twenty percent off store wide i know it's getting kind of late for uh christmas gifts but perhaps you have to get some late gifts for someone perhaps you didn't spend as much money as you thought you were going to and you can get something nice for yourself options and even better if you use the link or the code in the description down below you're going to get a further NUMBER_TOKEN off so that's uh that's NUMBER_TOKEN off pretty freaking awesome all of the ingredients we're using today are highly modified brewers ingredients so to be honest you probably only need maybe NUMBER_TOKEN minutes to get NUMBER_TOKEN of the conversion done but even so uh at this point i like to give it a really good stir cover it up again leave it for another NUMBER_TOKEN minutes and then we can start the mash out so using the claw hammer setup i just crack the valve at the bottom and start draining the word out into a bucket i can use that bucket to transfer over into the fermenter once all of the work was drained out i didn't worry about trying to get every last little drop out because today we are actually going to do a sparge and i'm doing a batch sparge so close the valve and start filling it up with hot water you want the water to be NUMBER_TOKEN degrees celsius keep adding the water until the grain is just sort of covered give it a bit of a stir let it sit for a couple of minutes and drain it back out again keep in mind we're going to add water later on so we're not worried about the gravity being lower now we're just increasing our overall yield of sugar from the grain we've got but a little note if you do get down to about NUMBER_TOKEN gravity it's probably about time to stop things can go a little bit pear-shaped if you sparge too far i filled the pots back up one and a half times and i was happy with that result all of the runnings that came out went over into the fermenter so in your fermenter you're now going to have your inverted sugar syrup and all of the runnings from your mash if you want to you can add some gluco-amylase into the fermenter at this point in time this is just a enzyme that is going to ensure that this ferments out super freaking dry it's entirely up to you i'm not going to go into it too much in this
START_SPONSOR_TOKEN and this is an awesome time to tell you about today's sponsor into the am they make these awesome very very cool graphic t-shirts in fact if you've seen that me wearing a t-shirt on this channel and you've thought to yourself that's cool t-shirt it's probably an into the am t-shirt the graphics are just really freaking awesome and the range is intense so pretty much whoever you are whatever you're into they're gonna have something to get your juices flowing and right now they have twenty percent off store wide i know it's getting kind of late for uh christmas gifts but perhaps you have to get some late gifts for someone perhaps you didn't spend as much money as you thought you were going to and you can get something nice for yourself options and even better if you use the link or the code in the description down below you're going to get a further NUMBER_TOKEN off so that's uh that's NUMBER_TOKEN off pretty freaking awesome END_SPONSOR_TOKEN
