So I just did my first all grain batch yesterday using the biab method. I had a quite messy brew day (pot was too small, my hydrometer broke when i tried to take a gravity reading) but my biggest problem was inconsistent temperature. I was mashing with the lid in an aluminum pot. i had quite a bit of loss of temp, it went down to 140 for a short amount of time, and when i either put the heat on very very low for a minute or two or added a quart of pretty hot water (tried both) it shot up to over 160. I tried to keep it as consistent as possible, how can i fix this problem in the future?
