I run a HERMS system at home and have taking 60-80 min to finish my sparge and transfer to the BK with a 10 gallon batch. This might be a stupid question but im moving up to a 2bbl system and am having a hard time getting my head around the sparge and transfer process and time it would take to complete the task. Does anyone have any input on this?

I'd say it totally depends on the proportions of the vessel... I was taught that you want the fluid level to basically be just above the mash volume in both outflow and the addition of sparge water. This was from a gentleman who first worked at New Albion and later with AB.
So far as runoff rate/time goes, I don't have a clue without more info.Kevin Shertz
