That’s a great idea. Do you compensate for the lower gravity from this by adding a little extra grain or just deal with a little lower gravity in your finished product?[/quote]
I will add just a little more base malt at the beginning. Maybe 5%. The reality is that I am really straining out the last of the available liquid from the grains that you normally don’t have the patience waiting for to start boiling. I tilt my cooler toward the valve and let it just drip for the next two hours while I boil and chill and you would be amazed at how much comes out.
