    Brew day complete log should say "Kettle Volume" when batch target is kettle

    Oliver is right. Or, you can simply change the target right in the recipe. Look at this example. 1. https://photos.app.goo.gl/log2UYhpyzdsPuhr2 2. https://photos.app.goo.gl/mHZyYx1a2ciS7Wg32 3. https://photos.app.goo.gl/I7KOvfBxTpwABBF13 4. https://photos.app.goo.gl/OLTlcRM0P8bovH682 Cheers

    Brew day complete log should say "Kettle Volume" when batch target is kettle

    Hey BF, When brewing a recipe that has a batch target type of "Kettle", the brew day complete log entry says to enter the fermenter volume. Entering the fermenter volume produces the incorrect brew house efficiency. It should say "Kettle Volume" in this case. Entering the kettle volume...

    Boil Gravity Showing Much Lower than OG

    I've reported an issue in another thread. There's an open bug where the dead kettle space is treated as boil-off. This throws off the gravity calculation. Very misleading. I have change my recipes to a target type of "kettle" instead of "fermenter". Then just add the amount of wort left in the...

    Grain absorption with BIAB

    Hmmm I now think I'm experiencing the kettle dead space issue as discussed here: https://www.brewersfriend.com/forum/threads/pre-boil-gravity-calculation-error.3403/ Once I drop that to 0 and artificially increase the batch size by the dead kettle space, the numbers add up. Is this issue still...

    Grain absorption with BIAB

    I was considering efficiency to be more about how much you extract from the grains, not how much you squeeze/drain the bag. If I were to brew with less mash water and squeeze the bag to get the volume, you would consider that a higher efficiency than if I were to brew with more mash water and...

    Grain absorption with BIAB

    I actually have a recipe that shows gravity readings as such: Starting Boil Volume: 7.83 Boil Gravity: 1.057 OG: 1.081 This is with a 1 gallon boil-off rate. This does't add up. The gravity after boiling down to 6.83 should be 1.065. I believe this might have to do with the OG calculation...

    Grain absorption with BIAB

    When you change the grain absorption, the "total mash water needed" for a recipe changes. For example, when I reduce the grain absorption from .5 qt/lb to .3 qt/lb my recipe shows a decrease in total mash water needed by around 1 gallon, depending on the amount of grain. Less mash water should...

    Grain absorption with BIAB

    Hey Gang, Question about how the "grain absorption" setting feature works for BIAB setups. Since any wort lost due to grain absorption is removed from the kettle when the bag is removed, I would expect the OG to change when I change the grain absorption. The default value of 0.5 qt/lb is too...
