I was wondering if when using a herms system to brew do you just get your water to mash temp fill your tun and start recirculating or do you need to get to strike temp like normal to hit mash temp and proceed from there?

Follow up question:
So do you drain your first runnings, prior to hitting your mash-out temp?
Very true, I'll try that on my next brew. That brings me to another question for thought. If you grain bed is already at 168, and you have mashed out, do you even need to heat up your sparge water??
