Too easy to get a stuck sparge adding grain to water, and you can easily get inconsistent temperatures that way.


Why would this be the case? Why would it be different? Obviously if you were using a RIM system to recirculate the water it would make sense to add the grain first, but if you were going to stir the crap out of the mash anyway to get the grain and water incorporated together why would it matter which you added first?

I'm just going with what i've read. But i also fly sparge, so that could be why my views differ.
