After stirring for a couple of minutes and letting the mash sit for a couple of minutes I take my temp reading.



154....boom....right where it should be. Online calcs are so nice. Those old guys who brewed in the 80s-90s must have been wizards with math.

So I'll let this sit for 30 minutes......I only mash for 30 minutes vs. the 60 minutes most books tell you to. I have not seen any difference in my efficiency....always sh*tty....or the beer taste. I read about this 30 minute mash on some blog. He actually recommended 20 minutes of mash.

You use the Brew365 mash and sparge calc tool? That is the only thing I use to determine my mash/sparge volumes and temps. It's money every time. I use Beersmith for recipe calculations, then Brew365 for mashing.
