In a BS2 recipe, I add the amount of glucose/corn sugar that I will add when I finally rack the beer into a barrel for conditioning. That added glucose will, of course, raise the SG at barreling time, and then ferment out in the barrel to condition the beer.
I'm guessing that BS2 will add the glucose sugar content to its estimated OG figure, as I can find no means of specifying that it be added at kegging time? However, my actual post-boil OG will - I further assume - be lower than BS2s estimate, by the amount of added glucose. And thus BS2s calculated efficiency will be down on reality?
The only way I can get BS2 to come up with the right figures is to fudge the OG... knowing that 180g of priming glucose in 23 litres will raise the SG by 3 degrees, then I can add this 3 degrees to my measured OG and then BS2 should correctly predict ABV and efficiency.
Or is there a better way?
Cheers all.
