Hi,
I have a suggestion for improving the software.
I just started batch sparging and love it. It has been recommended to me to make the runoff volumes from the mash and the batch sparge equal. So what I am having to due manually is calculate how much water the grains soak up, subtract that number from half of your desired boil volume and then I get an amount of hot water to add to the mash tun before the first runoff to end up with equal wort from the two runoffs. Make any sense? If not, check out this link: http://hbd.org/cascade/dennybrew/ About a 1/4 of the way down the page you'll see "Formulae and definition of variables" and that is what I am talking about.
Is this something that I could set up myself in the program or does it sound feasible for the next upgrade?
Thanks,
brian stevens
