I have a 12 gallon batch created but don't understand how BS 2.0 is coming up with sparge numbers.
I'm using 27.5 lbs of grain at 1.4 qts/lb. I selected batch sparge using 90%, use equal batch sizes, do not drain tun. The MLT is a 12 gallon rectangular cooler with .25 gallons of deadspace. Estimated pre boil volume is 13.48 gallons. Since equal runnings I should get 6.74 gallons for each sparge step. BS says to drain tun, batch sparge with 2 steps (7.41, 3.70). Already I see that you get more than the 13.48 gallons. The sparge water should be 7.41 total but it has 7.41 + 3.7 gallons. If you add mash water after absorption that's more than 13.48 gallons?
Here's my BS 2.0 file. Notice what happens to batch sparge steps when you check/uncheck the drain tun box. Volumes look correct if you select Drain Tun but don't look as expected if you uncheck it.
Thanks.
