I love the easy method. I only brew 3 gallon batches so your method is perfect for me.

Well, you should check out the three gallon all grain kits that Ben's Homebrew now sells. You can check them out here on the website.

Can any all-grain recipe be adapted to smaller counter-top recipes, or are there any tricks for smaller batches? Will I need to add any DME?

[benshomebrew]

@TheAmericaninexile

All all-grain recipes can be down sized. I'd suggest having at least 1 lb dme on hand for all all-grain batches.

i only ended up with 2 1/2 gallons of wort do I need to sparge more water?

[benshomebrew]

@XXMetalfishXX

You can, just make sure the gravity of the run off doesn't go below 1.010.

Nice to see that i am not the only dad that lets his little one brew with him.

hey ben,where did you get that false bottom?

[volsrock07]

what temperature is your sparging water at?

[GinSoakedStranger]

Great way to get into alll grain! When you added your mash water did you heat it up a bit higher than your desired mash temp? I suppose the grain would cause it to drop so just wanted to know how much to compensate. Do you add much more water to make up for what's absorbed by the grain? Thanks for the vid...hope it turned out well

i checked the gravity on the batch and it was right at 1.0
