Does the GF water calculator account for any loss due to absorbance by hops?
I keep coming up short in the FV volume.
Last brew my pre-boil volume was spot on. but I was 2L short in the FV.
I read somewhere that you lose some wort due to hop absorption.
It was an American forum and they quoted 0.11 gallons per ounce of hops.
(0.42L per 28g of hops)
This is about the shortfall I got with my last brew, which had 112g of hops (1.68L)
Thanks!
