Hello,
I have searched and read many threads but still cant seem to get my Estimated OG to where it should be.
I have a recipe that when at 70% efficiency will yield a 1.052 OG
When I enter in this recipe and set the brewhouse efficiency to 70% beersmith is showing my OG estimate to be 1.062. This is not the 1.052 That I expected.
I had a friend run this same recipe at 70% efficiency on another brewing program and he came up with the numbers that I was expecting ie 1.052.
Your help is appreciated.
Here is my sheet.
