So, after a long hiatus, I am getting ready to get back into brewing, using my new diy brewery (partially seen here: Typicalnervecells typical diy electric brewing build. ).
Now, I'm pretty sure I did the maths, but this was prior to covid even, so I suppose a second opinion wouldn't hurt. The thing is, due to needing the malt pipe to clear the heating element, and the general size of the boil pot, I need to fill approximately 10 liters before there is any liquid inside the malt pipe. For a lot of all grain kits, 19L or so of strike water is common, so here is my question: would you simply use the water amounts in the recipe as is, or would you do any adjustments?
For the record, I will be using a circulation pump.
