Set my mash temp in software at 68 deg C (154F). Strike water came from the software at 75C (167F). I preheated the mash tun (a cooler) for 15 mins with boiling water, dumped it then proceeded to mash.
The strike water was a bit high at 80C (176F), but thought it would drop down during the 40min mash.
Checked a couple of times and at the end of the mash and the temp was a constant 76C (168F) inbstead of the ideal 68C (154F).
What effect will this have on the final beer? Brew was 100% pilsener grain.
Thanks in advance for any input!
