I've come to the conclusion that my thermometer reads 10-12 deg. high. I bought a new digital to compare and when I get up to 153 my old thermometer is reading around 140 - 142. The new thermometer also reads dead on with the stick-ons on my carboys full of sanitizer. So, i'm wondering. I'm checking on my last two brews, the amber is almost a month in the bottle, fully carbed. Tastes really thin, watery, some buttery/cider kind of tastes. Are these symptoms of mashing in the low 140's possibly high 130's? I did hit my OG dead on.. Thoughts?
