Grain Malt PPG Malt Lbs Total Available Gravity Points Target OG based on 75% brewhouse efficiency 1.065Įxtra Light Dry Extract 1 (Added for the last 15 minutes of the Boil) I've spent the last 2 days at work searching the forum's but couldn't find anything that gave me a clear reason as to why there would be such a variance.īelow is the grain bill, measurements, and calculations I generated on my own.If one of you experts could help me out so I can get better brewhouse efficiency allowing me to use beersmith to generate a recipe I would be very greatful! So my question is why would Beersmith give me an efficiency % so much lower than what I calculated by hand if I used the same numbers I plugged into Beersmith? I am sure it's probably something I am overlooking, but I can't quite figure it out. On my next batch, I generated a recipe in the same manner (assuming 75% Brewhouse Efficiency), but missed my target OG by about 12 points.After entering in my pre-boil gravity, pre-boil volume, batch volume and actual OG measurements, beersmiith spit out a brewhouse efficiency of 52%.When I did the calculations by hand, I calculated an Extract Efficiency of 74% and Brewhouse efficiency of 68%. The first batch I brewed, I successfuly hit the target OG beersmith estimated assuming the default brewhouse efficiency of 75%.honestly, I think I just got lucky. Recently, I have been using the trial version of Beersmith to generate my own recipes. The first few, I didn't measure my pre-boil gravity as I was using recipes from BYO and it didn't mention anything about pre-boil gravity.I would still hit the Target OG within a few points.
