RIMS always seemed like too much work. I used a multi-step infusion. I designed the Excel spreadsheet to take into account even altitude changes to the water boil point. It worked like a charm and was extremely easy. I used a Schidling Easy Mash in a picnic cooler. If I did it over again, it would be a Gott cooler with the easy mash.

Triple infusion: 95-130-155 then mash out to 170.

I think the secrets to turn good beer into fantastic beer are sparg water Ph, good water quality and proper fermentation temp for the yeast.
