Guys, I've search the forum without luck for this question. I've just converted to 100% electric and my mash tun is a converted keg. I used to preheat the mash water in the MT on a propane burner. However, I will now use an electric HT. I am therefore wondering what should be my water temperature before it's been transferred to the MT, considering the temp will drop. I made some calcs and for 5.5 gal of water, I would need in theory to overshoot 5F above stricking temp. But I think it's not enough.... Could your experience? Thanks!
