Ok thanks for that!

Forgive me for asking a possible obvious question - but I just need to clarify something.

When you say 30 mins at 135 then 40 at 145, does that mean you use strike water to get your grains up to 135, hold for 30 mins, grab some of the grains and heat them to a certain temp so that when you add them back to the mash the whole thing hits 145, then do the same for 160 then 170?

Something like the way this guy does it?


Thanks again

Hunt

Yup. I hit my target temp with strike water (135) held for 5 min then decocted and boiled part of my mash to raise the temp to the next temp., rinse and repeat.
