As I was messing with the batch sparge utility some more I noticed that the lauter tun dead space volume is figured into the sparge volume. Seeing as how most homebrewers lauter/sparge in their mashtun. Is there anyway to get Beersmith to figure this dead space addition in the dough in volume. If you do not figure this in when doughing in, then you are actually mashing in less than your desired water/grain ratio. I have a 2 quart deadspace at the bottom of my cooler, so if I do not take this into consideration when doughing in I am actually mashing with a water to grain ratio of 1.05 vs. 1.25 that I wanted. Just a thought.
