Sparging

Has anyone tried using a coffee maker for sparging grain?

Not yet but I've read this article on how to brew in a coffee pot.

I wouldn't waste that much time on that little brew.

I meant doing enough for a batch.
Pot, after pot, after pot, all poured into the big brew pot.

most coffee makers have a 12 cup capacity... 12 cups is 3 quarts... to do a full boil for a batch of 5 gallons you would need 24-28 quarts (6-7 gallons)... do the math... not worth the trouble... use a 10 gallon cooler with a Phalse bottom
