    I've done a couple all day mashes now and haven't had a single problem. the beer do tend to dry out a bit but that's all. I'm actually planning one now and I'm thinking of mashing @ 158 just to see what happens.

    kegerator... classics never die.

    On the 19th batch i tried a fan...

    if it adds oxidation then alot of my beers are probably going to have it.. i plan on using the fan alot. even after knocking down the flame some you still end up with foam issues and boil over. In the past too when i've knocked down the flame I never seem to boil off enough and end up with more...
