The past few brews I've done have all come in with low OG's. My pre-boil volume and gravity are correct and my post-boil volume is correct but the post-boil gravity is always lower than the software predicts. Here's what I don't get: if I start with 7 gallons of pre-boil wort at 1.033, the post-boil gravity assuming 1 gallon loss to boil and evaporation should be 1.039 (rounded from 1.385) yet the software keeps telling me I should have a post-boil gravity of 1.041. (33 points per gallon in 7 gallons = 231. 231 points in 6 gal = 1.0385)
My equipment profile is configured correctly from what I can tell. The boil off rate is set to 1 gallon/hr and the boil time is 60 mins. What gives? I'm increasingly annoyed by always missing my OG.
