I have a 20 gal Stout kettle for my Mash Tun and I think it is in need of insulation.
I use a RIMS tube for heating and I like it, but the temperature of the wort coming out of the RIMS tube and the temp measured lower in the grains is 5-7 degrees lower. I adjusted my RIMS temp up 5 degrees and I finally hit my estimated numbers. But I think it would be better to insulate the Mash Tun and not have to adjust the RIMS temp.
Does anyone have any good ideas for insulating it?
