I just activated beersmith 2 and am having issues with differences in attenuation calculations. For example, I have my avg attenuation for US05 set to 80% for a recipe with an OG of 1.052. In Beersmith 1 the FG estimate is 1.010 and in Beersmith 2 the is 1.008. I have made sure that mix/max attenuation figures work out 80% attenuation. Any ideas?
 
Ok I now see that the FG figures are affected by which mash profile is chosen. Is there any way to deactivate this so that it behaves similarly to BS1?

I found the area where you can deactivate that function or customize it. I was able to add data from my experiences in order to predict FG more accurately for my beers...just had to do some more digging...
