Per this calculator:
http://www.brewheads.com/strike.php
I'm trying to find my strike water temp (which has been a big problem for me so far). I'm using this calculator and have 2 questions:
1) What is the "standard" temp for grains? I've read 72 in some places...Is this correct?
2) Under "thermal loss of vessel," I'm assuming because I'm doing BIAB and heating all of my water at once, I don't really have a thermal loss of temp due to the pot since it's being completed heated up by the water anyway...right? Would I put in a "0" in this field? The default says "3" if you don't know.
Thanks.
