They were new recipes.HBHB said:Are they the same recipes as you were using before?
If you're hitting the numbers (gravity and volumes) then i assume your scales used to measure the grain are on the mark.
What method did you use to calibrate the thermometer? and was it calibrated at 65 degrees C? ie calibrating at 100 deg C is pretty pointless with a lot of cheap themometers.
Do you test your pH in the mash?

I calibrated at a couple different temps. with both an aquarium thermometer and a cheapo one.
I have never tested my PH, i wouldnt know what to do or look for.
