I have been a satisfied Brewsmith customer for a year but recently ran into a hopefully simple question which prompted me to create an account here in search of an answer.
The Brewsmith software reports both a 'End of Boil Vol:' and a 'Final Bottling Vol:', the latter of which always appears to be smaller than the first. For example for an upcoming 10 gallon batch it shows
End of Boil Vol: 11.44 gal
Final Bottling Vol: 10.17 gal
My question is, what accounts for that 1.21 gallon difference between the two? Also, is there a place in the Brewsmith documentation found using the Help menu where this question would have been answered? I searched and couldn't find it.
