Why dose BS want me to add so much water ?
(10 L IPA whit a Brewcrafter25, 3 KG of malt)
If I mash with 3.5 liters per kg of malt, and add the 2.7-liter up to the mash filter (such as Brewcrafter25 is to be filled)
It gets 13.2 liters of mash.
I estimate that about 3 liters get stuck in the malt, etc. so I get 10 liters left.
But then BS wants to pour 9.12 liters of water in ...
That's 19.12 liters before boiling (another part of BS want it to be 13.94 ..)
Estimated 2,5 liters disappears in the boil =19.12 - 2,5= 16,6 liters.. that's over 6 liters to much...
what do I do wrong ?
