Hi everyone!
we are just getting into the brewing process and everything has been going really well! We started off with a 5 gallon batch from a kit that yielded 4.5 gallons. Once we started an all grain brew of 5 gallons we yielded 3.5 gallons in the end. We thought doubling our batch would be best since we could double the amount of beer in the same amount of time...that is not happening. We just finished our first 10 gallon batch and we ended up with 5.5-6 gallons in our fermenter. Our question is why are we loosing so much beer?!
Any suggestions or tips would be greatly appreciated!
thank you!
