Hello all,
OK - I've done some searching and am still lost.
I've just completed my 3rd AG batch and I'm trying to figure out what amount of grain I need to hit my required gravity.
I've done a pretty good job of keeping all my stats:
Measured Mash Efficiency (about 80%)
Pre Boil OG
Pre Boil Volume
Boil off (% / Volume)
I know what volumes I want going into the fermenter (about 6-6.5G) and what I want coming out of the fermenter (about 5.75G). I'm boiling off between 0.8-1G for a one hour boil. I don't want to do 2 hour boils to bring the volumes into check so I guess I need to add more grain (cause I'm missing my Fermenter OGs).
If I'm missing anything here to help diagnose this issue - please let me know. I just need to know where in the software i can "dial in" so that my grain bill gives me the right OG with my present mash efficiencies.
Also - as you progress with using BS2 - will it "learn" your efficiencies for future brew sessions? If not - where do I need to concentrate? What do I need to know to get the proper OGs?
