I'm going to test out the 30-minute mash theory tonight and I have some Iodophor on hand.

Any thoughts on whether or not this will adequately tell me if conversion is complete, or is there other stuff in this product that will hinder the identification of starch in a mash?
 
I do it. You could take some unmashed grain, crush it up, and test it to make sure you're getting the color change.
