Does anyone else think the estimated gravity contribution of the steeping grains for extract brewing is a little on the high side? I'm pretty new to brewing, done 4 batches and have yet to hit the estimated OG output from the recipe editor (each time has been about 3 points off). Thanks in advance for any insights.
Re: PPG for Steeping Grains What efficiency value is set for the recipes? Maybe turn that down a bit. If you want to post a shared recipe we can take a look. Other things to consider: 1) Hydrometer temperature correction: http://www.brewersfriend.com/hydrometer-temp/ 2) Hydrometer calibration: http://www.brewersfriend.com/2010/12/19 ... esomeness/ The good news is, it is consistent!
