Hi,
I hope someone can help me understand the boil of setting. Here is what I don't understand:
My batch size is 5.5 gal
Boil time 60 min
I set the boil off rate at 1 gal and I checked 'hourly boil off rate'
End of boil Vol shows 5.72 gal
Why isn't the 'end of boil vol' 5.5 gal?
Now I created exactly the same equipment but I unchecked the hourly rate setting. Now the final volume shows 5.5 gal and the hop quantities are lower.
So what exactly is the 'hourly rate' check mark and how can the volume be greater than 5.5 if boil off is 1 gal and boiling for 60 min? That doesn't work out.
Thanks,
