I recently brewed a recipe using a printout of a brewsheet that was dead-on, up until the Cool and Prepare Fermentation phase:
If the estimated post boil volume is only 2.6 gallons with a 1.060 SG, then I add water to achieve a fermentation volume of 5.0 gallons, the SG will, by necessity, drop precipitously.
Why does Beersmith show the same SG for both before and after adding water to the fermenter? This seems like a significant bug, since the calculations based on the batch size (measured into the fermenter) would need to be based on information entered about malt.
