Strike Water Temperature Calculator

T_strike = ((0.2 / R) × (T_target - T_grain)) + T_target

Calculate the correct water temperature needed to hit your desired mash temperature.

Water-to-Grain Ratio (qt/lb) Target Mash Temperature (°F) Grain Temperature (°F)

Enter values to calculate strike water temperature.

Tip: Most grain is around room temperature (~68–72°F), but colder storage conditions can affect your mash.
