So next week is TANTHB, and I'm going to be gathering with many of my fellow brewers in a parking lot behind an LHBS to brew me a batch of beer...away from my precious beersmith, OR the greenbay rackers mash temp calculator....
So I'm going to be in a parking lot, on November 1st, in Michigan 5 days after what is supposedly going to be our first meeting with snow flurries..so who the heck knows WHAT my grain temp will be...
So what is the actual formula for calculating strike water temp based on grain temp, and the desired mash temp?
I usually just take the temp of my grain bed, enter numbers on the greenbay rackers site, then walk back an heat my to the temp I'm told...So what is the formula that the calculator uses to tell me?
I need to mash @ 158 degrees btw.....
