I have been having a lot of trouble reaching my target mash temps. I use a square 40-45 qt square ice chest as a mash tun. It seems like no matter how high put my strike temp (I stay below 189 bc I heard that will extract tannins when it comes in contact w the grain), I cannot get over 150(150 is high, I normally hit somewhere around 145-148). What can I do differently to hit my temps? Thanks
