My plastic cooler mash tun has a false floor fitted and below this a flexible hose filter is fitted. the space below the false floor takes approx 4lt. when i run this off I am left with approx,0.5lt of liquid. My question is that in using beersmith under my equipment profile I have entered Mash Tun Addititon =4lt, Lauter Tun Losses =0.5lt and I have ticked the box for Adjust Mash Vol for Losses. This is the setup for my various Vol brews. The trouble is with each I am ending up with approx 2-3lt extra in my fermenter even though i am doing the correct boil times. Could anyone help with this. All my readings are hitting the correct figures.
