Subject: Commercial sparging
I don't believe I have ever read how much wort volume is typically
collected from a mash in a commercial brewery. I suspect it is
directly proportional to mass of the grist, but it may vary
significantly for very large beers and very small beers. Does anyone
reading the Digest have any figures?
