I've read from various sources on HBT that grains should be steeped anywhere from between 150-170 degrees.
I just realized (by looking at the directions on my latest LHBS kit) that they are telling me to remove them at the moment I achieve boil. That would mean I am steeping grains at 200+ temps, is that okay/not so good/bad/really bad?
I don't want to get tannins and crap in there I don't want.
Should I throw my thermometer in there and remove grains when I reach 160 ish?
