I use a generic 48 qt cooler for my mash tun. My heat loss is generally 2-3 deg per hour. But this past weekend I brewed a 1.035, which obviously had much more head room in the MLT and I consiquently lost about 7 deg in 40 min! I've noticed that the hinge for the top is where most of the heat seems to escape. Can I just cover with a blanket and hope for the best, or is there a better method?
