Just been trying to fill in as much data as possible in the Session Data tab in BS 2.3.7. I note that the end of running field defaults to 1.010 until you enter your actual numbers.
I have measured my last running from the mash tun for the past 2 brews and they were 1.033 and 1.030 both brews had a pre boil gravity of 1.048.
Should my end of running gravity be that high?
 
Greetings vancutan1 - No, it should not.  Typically, I keep a close eye on my end running and shut down the process when I'm approaching 1.010 (and if your equipment profile is correct, you should be reaching your pre-boil volume at about 1.010 or slightly higher)  You shouldn't really go further because you'll start drawing harsh unwanted flavors from the mash.  However, at 1.030, you're still extracting fermentable sugars and you should keep going.

Hope this helps!
