Help please; I think I must be missing some setup adjustment I should be making.
After utilizing the very good info on adjusting efficiencies (also previously a problem; no longer) that came up when searching for when I'm asking after here, I still didn't locate what I know I must be missing.
Here's the issue: I do BIAB in a keggle.
Using today's results for details: strike water in the vessel preheated to 161 (ish) when BS2 says I should be at 158 to hit proper mash temp of 153.
However, after I mashed in, I found the actual temp to be 152.5, 1/2 a degree low despite being 3 degrees high on strike temp.
This is just using current data for a repeated problem; I never seem to be able to rely on the temp values BS2 says I should use in the mash tab.
What do I need to adjust?
(I've got the vessel material specific gravity set a tad higher than the stainless level suggested in the equipment profile, but if I've got "adjust for equipment" unchecked, it shouldn't matter anyway, right?!)
Thanks for help!
