Would like to know if there are people doing protein rests with their RIMS and how they are doing it.
I have attempted to do a protein rest with my RIMS a couple of time and have ended up with scorching on the element. One time I ended up dumping in the middle of the mash and the other times if mostly just caused a darkening of the wort. I have seen some posts about other people having similar issues but did not see any solutions other than switching to a HERMS.
I have been having a issue with chill haze with my lagers and want to see if I can clear it up with a protein rest. I used to use gelatin but after getting a whiff of the heated solution I have been trying to avoid it if I can.
I am using this 1650W foldback element.

I don't get scorching if I mash in close to 150 or after any ramps upward from that point, only when I tried to start in the 130s. The look of the mash definitely looked different very milky. I do a fairly thin mash with about 5gal for 9 or 10lb of grain. There is only about a quart of liquid in the RIMS and associated tubing.
I use a ezboil DSPR300 now, but also have a DSPR310D for a panel upgrade so I am thinking about trying that one next attempt to see if playing with the Mout option helps.
I use weyerman pilsner malts in my lagers, both the floor malted bohemian and the standard process too.
