Hello all. I'm a bit confused about the eff numbers in Beersmith. Here are the numbers from my brew session today.
Brewhouse Eff
Actual OG 1.063 Actuall Eff 67.3 Estimated OG 1.063 Brewhouse Eff 67.0
Eff inot Boiler
Volume into Boiler 7.10 OG into Boiler 1.056 Palnned Boil volume 7.25 Est OG into Boiler 1.048 Eff into Boiler 77.3
Eff into fermentor
Batch Volume 5.50 Planned Volume 5.50 Eff from Actual Volume 67.3.
Can anyone explain what these numbers mean. I thought I understood but I guess not. How can the Actual volume be 5.50 the planned be 5.50 and the Eff from Actual Volume be 67.3. Shouldn't the Eff in Boiler and Eff into fermentor numbers match?
I usually set the brewhouse eff to 75% thinking that is my mash eff. If not how do I enter my mash eff to get the Original Gravity Estimate setting to match my mash eff of 75% or so?
