The silicone that keeps my mash tun from leaking around the drain has stopped sealing. I dumped my strike water in, and within 5 minutes had lost more than 1 cup. I'd hate to abort the brew day, is there anything I can do?

Maybe put a container under it and catch the leakage, and pour it back in? Then, later when you're not brewing, take it apart and figure out what's really wrong.

That might work... I'll give it a try. Thanks!

That seems to be working pretty well. Additionally, it looks like I panicked... It's not actually leaking very fast at all, but it looked like it was because the puddle was growing so quickly.
Glad your brew day was able to continue! Cheers!

Thanks! Everything went pretty smoothly after that.
