So I just finished my 3rd batch on my new B3 rig and got to thinking: what temp do you guys generally keep your HLT at for the HERMS?
I have just been setting it to 168 so it's ready for the sparge and having the pump kick on when the mash drops below my set point, but wouldn't the small amount of wort in the HERMS coil get de-natured when the pump kicks off and it's sitting for a few minutes in 168F water?
Prob a duh moment, but appreciate the help.
