Temperature
The temperature on the digital controller reads the temperature at the bottom of the boiler
near where the elements are mounted. It is important to understand that this is not the
core temperature of the mash. If you recirculate long enough the mash temperature will
eventually be close the measured temperature displayed on the digital controller. With that
said if you want to increase the temperature of the mash it is normally fastest and easiest to
overshoot the desired mash temperature by a few degrees while using a secondary
calibrated thermometer in the mash to keep an eye on the core temperature of the mash.
The phot to the right shows the placement of the
probe. The probe placement has been designed like
this as it prevents the element from overheating and
scorching the wort by taking the temperature of the
wort closest to the elements. This is why your strike
temperature needs to be accurate!
The BrewZilla includes Ultra Low Watt Density
Elements (ULWD) meaning brighter beer can be
brewed with the fear of scorching and burnt off-
flavours.
