I have an All-Grain recipe (jamil's cream ale) that I just finished mashing. It includes a late-boil addition of 1lb of dextrose. the software seems to be counting that when figuring my pre-boil efficiency. When I leave the dextrose out, it has my efficiency at 80% (in line with what other calculators are giving me), but when I add it back in on the design page (marking 1min boil addition, or 'add after boil') it drops the mash efficiency down to 69%.
This shouldn't be happening, since the dextrose doesn't happen until after the boil's almost over. What am I doing wrong? I've tried it as both an AG and Partial Mash boil, but nothing's making a difference in the way the software interprets it.
Help?
