Just curious what everyone else does. I'm in the middle of steeping right now using a turkey fryer. The temp hit 155 and I turned down the heat, then added the grains. I monitored the temp and it continued to rise as I continued to decrease the flame. At 170, I completely shut off the propane and just let the grains steep (flameless) as the temp slowly rolled back towards 155. At 155, I'll crank it up again and try to keep it low. At this point, there's only 10 minutes left of the 30 minutes. Hopefully, that doesn't ruin anything. I just wanted to stay under 170.
edit: FTR I'm using a thermapen for temp measurements. The thermo that came with the fryer kit is horribly inaccurate.
