Small Batch Brewer
Hi,
Last night I brewed an AG DIPA and brew day went really well with one exception...
I overshot my OG by a long way.
Target was 9L in the fermenter @ 1.059
I ended up with 9.25L @ 1.067
This was my first time using Beersmith2 on my mobile and it is calculating that my mash efficiency was 90.9% while my brewhouse efficiency was calculated at 81.5%.
If my DIPA finishes at the estimated 1.012 it will be over 7%abv.
I'm all for good efficiency, but I'm using a 15L pot on my stove with a bag and a dunk sparge. Something doesn't seem to stack up.
Anybody with any experience of this in Beersmith2?
Should I have adjusted with water somewhere along the way?
Any help much appreciated.
