Stuck sparge?
- Has your wort stopped flowing during your sparge? There are two ways to fix this:
- Try opening your lauter tun outflow valve and blow back into it. This may clear the path and allow your wort to flow again. Be careful with this technique because if the flow starts again you may end up with a mouth full of 170 °F wort.
- Reset the compacted mash bed by gently stirring the mash again. You will need to recirculate again to achieve a clear wort. Continue the sparge.
