During the 30 min mash, Ive stirred the grist thoroughly with my spatula two times taking care not to splash. From here on out, splashing is a no no as it could cause oxidation of your beer down the road. I always cause some minor bubbling and I don't know how to avoid that.

Now that our 30 minute mash time is up, I place my tubing into a glass pitcher and fill this pitcher up. You'll see grains floating in the wort (liquid). I pour this pitcher of wort back into the mash tun slowly. Then repeat 3 or 4 times till you don't see any grains floating.

Now I can start transferring my sweet, sweet wort into my boil kettle. I open the valve just slightly so as to allow the liquid wort to slowly drain over the grains and catch as much sugar as possible. It may take 20-30 minutes to drain it all.
