The Mash in is the step where the grain bill is combined with the brewing liquor. The mixture is the mash. The brewing liquor is heated to a temperature that will equalize at the desired first rest temperature when combined with the grain.
Important Note: If you are not heating your mashtun directly, you must select equipment from "Heating Vessel" AND "Mash Vessel" dropdowns. If you select a heating vessel then BTP assumes that the water is heated and then added to the mash vessel. If no heating vessel is selected, then BTP assumes that the water is heated in the mash vessel.
