So I am in need of some extra brain power to figure out what is going on with my efficiency and why it isn't anywhere close to what I should be getting. You can see all of my equipment at http://terrytownbrews.blogspot.com/2011/02/my-brew-day-equipment.html. I'm not sure if my designs are wrong in my mash tun or what. I am able to mash for 60 minutes and only lose about 3 degrees if that. So I don't think I have a major heat loss issue. I am working a fly sparge and usually try to make it last about 60 minutes, though it is a little hard to get it dialed in exact. I am getting great tasting results, just a piss poor efficiency, in the range of 62-70%. I am hoping to get to at least 75-80%.
