Yes 5 gal. Batch.. thank you for your help

More info: I actually used a sous vide to heat the water in the container, so guess potentially I only lost the initial heat adding the mash. 5gal batch/ all grain bill, 10 lb 2 row pale malt, 1lb munich mash time 1.5 hours (doing other stuff figured it wasnt going to hurt it. Yes I sparged...
