I brewed my second all grain BIAB batch this weekend and everything went great except for one issue. After a 60-min mash, which my temps stayed right around 153, I started turning up the heat on my electric stovetop to get it up to 170 for a 10 min mash out. It was taking a long time for it to heat up, and when my thermometer was showing 163, I thought I had time to take a quick leak (damn homebrew).
I get back like 30 seconds later and my temp soared up to 194! So I quickly turned off the stove, took it off the burner and started stirring it. At that time I started counting down 10 minutes, and the temp got about as low aw 184.
So basically my mash out temp was way too high. What kind of problems could this cause?
