Hi -
I have noticed that my mash water quantity is not being calculated correctly for my particular system.
I have a MLT where 1 gallon of wort sits underneath the screen. If I use the 1.25 quarts per pound of grain for 10 pounds of grain my mash in total volume should be about 12.5 quarts - which is correctly showing in the mash instructions. However, if I put 12.5 quarts of water into my MLT, a full 4 quarts will not be contact with the grain when I add it, reducing my mash thickness down to 0.85 quarts per pound.
Is there a setting to ensure that the mash-in quantity accounts for the gallon under my screenn? I have tried changing the "Lauter Tun Deadspace" to 1 gallon but this has no effect.
Thanks!
