Hi, I am brewing my first AG this week-end. I want to estimate my strike temperature for my mash, and I want to calculate it by myself.
It is a simple thermodynamic problem, but there is 1 unkown and it is the Specific Heat of grain.
I looked on the internet and I haven't found anything.
I found this website : http://www.brew365.com/mash_sparge_water_calculator.php which look interesting, but the strike temperature doesn't change with the quantity of grains and therefore, cannot be right (according to thermodynamics)
Does someone have this values?
Thank you
