I have an 8 gallon kettle which I'm using for BIAB. The Kettle acting as both Boiler and Tun.
I have brewed several beers using Partial Mash (DME being added after the boil) with this setup and am transitioning to a Full Grain recipe.
I now realise that my 8 Gallon kettle is a restriction given that the water, plus displacement of grains for most 5 Gallon recipes exceeds the "Mash Volume Needed" of my Kettle. I want to brew as much beer as possible for the volume of the Kettle.
I can create an Equipment Profile of say 2.5 gallons and then use "Scale Recipe", find I can squeeze a little more in and so create a 3 gallon profile etc, but is there a way to have BeerSmith dynamically scale a recipe to maximise the batch size for the recipe/equipment?
