Hi all
Hopefully looking forward to not only doing my first ever beer but also going AG from the start, so I've just done my first temperature test on my insulated mash tun this evening and lost 5 degrees in 90 minutes. I believe this will be better when the grain is in the tun, but is this good enough? The coolbox is an igloo 44 litre box. The lid is not insulated but is one piece so I cannot get any insulation inside, unless I use a foam. Will this be any better?. I have also made a box to fit over it from 60mm foil backed solid foam insulation, which was also used.
Any comments are welcome.
