Has anyone worked out the equipment profile for a Picobrew? Especially which mash profile best matches how the Picobrew works.
TIA

PKennedy said:Nobody seems to have created one of these profiles so I took the liberty of doing so. Annie uses a different program and doesn't have a Beersmith profile. Personally, I like the PicoBrew (I also like my Blichmann 10 Gallon RIMS setup, but the Pico is easier and I have 3 kids so if I'm going to brew often...) but their SW needs a LOT of work (efficiency setting, mash profile creation, etc). I've brewed three batches using this profile and updated/corrected it each time. Feel free to use/hack/update as you'd like. I set the brewhouse eff. at 65% based off of using the supplied profile. The eff% will probably change quite a bit as I modify the profile.

Should be able to just download and import. Let me know how these work for everyone and I'll try to keep them updated to reflect group findings/measurements.
