There could be another issue.
With reaction-field you always introduce integration errors.
With water this leads to a temperature of 305 K when Berendsen coupling
to 300 K with tau_t=0.1 ps and the Gromos cut-off setup.

In Gromos there is/was a problem with inconsistent ways of determining
the temperature. Therefore the effective temperature in the simulation
can be several degrees higher than the one reported in the paper.

What coupling method did you use and what is your real temperature?

Berk.
