So i thought i'd save a few bucks and get a $15 meat thermometer. (i've already burned thru 2 $30 one's in just a few months. Anyhow, mashed in at 154° - perfect. 30 mins passes and it 156° - well, that's unusual i thought. so i opened up the tun and stirred...it went to 158°. I started to freak a little...was getting ready to dump some cool water in and i decided to check with two other therms i have. it was like 147°. I hope the POS them was correct when it said 154° at the beginning but I have no idea. So, worst case scenario the mash sat at 147° for an hour. Am i gonna have an extremely dry Boo Slobber or what? What might that change on my OG?
