Just upgraded my mash tun from a 5 gallon to a 10 gallon beverage cooler.
Now I will be able to add the mash out step to my routine.
In the past I've heated my sparge water to the 185-190 degree range which would raise the grain bed to 168-170 degrees during fly sparging.
I'm assuming now with performing a mash out, I only need to heat the sparge water to 174-176 degrees (accounting for a 6 degree temperature loss when added to the HLT cooler).
Just wanted to make sure I'm thinking correctly.
