Hello everybody,
I am doing my first all grain today with my dad. My recipe calls to mash in at 152 degrees. I preheated my 5 gal.gallon cooler with water @ 130.
When I poured in my mash, it has not risen above 141.9. uh-oh. should I take part of my sparge water to raise mask temp and subtract from final sparge quantiy?
HELP? I've got 35 min to go on the mash. I'm doing a 3 gal. brew.
Thanks,
Kevin
