I was rinsing my mashtun after a brew and I heard a big boom. I looked in the mashtun and the bottom was a dome instead of a cone.
My hot liquor tank is below the mashtun, so I assume the hot water(180 F) had something to do with the expansion.
Has anyone had any experience similar to this one or heard of this happening?
Do I need to put really cold water in the hot liquor tank?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
