Planning for a 5.5 gallon batch Preboil volume means what you have in the pot after the sparge but before the boil, does not include water lost to the mash. So it should always be the total water minus the mash evaporation amount. Roughly 0.5 gallons evaporation during a 60 minute mash, or 0.75 gallons for a 90 minute mash. For the boil and immersion cooling, roughly 1 gallon of water lost per hour, or 1.5 gallons for a 90 minute boil. 0.5 gallons lost to 60 minute mash 1 gallon lost to boil & cooling for 60 minute boil total water loss expected: 1.5 gallons Wanting a 5.4 gallon batch Total water need: 6.9 (filtered) Preboil estimated volume: 6.4 Mash OAT: __* Actual preboil: _.__ gallons

This seems more accurate with ingredients based on the brewery's description except for yeast and Galena hops. Hop amounts are also way higher than should be for 16 IBUs

Assumes 70% efficiency and a 6 gallon batch. 80% 2 row, 10% C40, 10% C80

OG 1.061 and FG 1.015 [seems high]
Hops are 1/2 oz. Galena 30 mins, 1/2 oz. Columbus 20 mins, 1/2 oz. Northern Brewer 10 mins, and 2 oz. Hood (0)
Don't agree with Galena
-------------------------------------

Austin Home-brew supply says OG 1.056 and FG 1.013
Grain is 80% 2 row; 10% C80, and 10% C40
Hops are different though
