Hi,
new licenced user here. I'm sorry if this is obvious or has been answered many times before, but I am wondering how to set up BeerSmith for my system.
In my BIAB setup I have two 17 liter kettles. I use 8-11 l in the first one for mashing (depending on amount of grain). Before the end of the mash, I heat an appropriate amount of water in the second kettle, and after the mash move the grain bag to the second one for mashing out (or you might call it a batch sparge). After a while I remove the grain from the sparge kettle, and then collect the contents of both kettles in one of them for the boil.
I want to set up this procedure so BeerSmith can estimate the appropriate temperature to get my desired mash and mashout temperatures. However, using an ordinary mash step it tells me to add the water and then heat, and it doesn't look like the batch sparge option works for me either. Is there a way to set up my procedure in BeerSmith, or is it too eccentric?
Regards,
Morten
