How the calculation works
Strike temperature uses the standard infusion approximation with mash thickness and a tun-loss adjustment.
What to verify
Calibrate for your mash tun, grain moisture and measured absorption over several batches.
How accurate is this calculator?
It is a transparent planning calculation based on the entered values and stated assumptions. Verify inputs and obtain professional or supplier confirmation where the decision is consequential.
Does it use U.S. defaults?
Yes. U.S. units, terminology, pricing conventions and rules are the primary defaults where location matters.
