I agree that most people empty the tun for each batch, but there is a group that believe you should not empty the tun as it leads to stuck sparges. If you talk to 10 people about what batch sparging is you will likely get 10 different answers. Adam,

Do you know what batch sparging is? by definition batch sparging is running the grain bed dry then refilling. and NOT having water running into the lauder tun during the sparge. “If fly sparging or batch sparging, it is important to keep the grain bed afloat with a small layer of water above the grain bed.”
