I utilize RIMS and am a big fan. I have a coleman extreme cooler as a mash tun (all though I debate switching to stainless all the time, but that's another thread). I have the temperature probe pretty close to where wort re-enters the mash. But I'm left wondering, if my RIMS is set to 154, is my mash 154? I put a hand held in the mash and am always close to set point, but I'm not that far in the mash. Anyway, I am more curious about this than wondering if my beer suffers.
I am getting a Bobby M. weldless thermometer solution to get some science to see what the difference is. I think a long term solution might be getting an RTD probe talking to my control box via quick disconnect to my tun. Does anyone do this, or am I over-thinking this?
