I thought I understood this by now. Tell me where I am going wrong.
I want 19l of 12% beer. Suppose I get 70% efficiency. Then I need 19*0.12/0.70=3.25kg of grain.
So that's what I bought, and I am mashing now, but every online calculator says that I am only going to get 1.037 rather than 1.048, and that I should have bought like 25% more grain. That's not a small difference. Clearly I am having a GCF (Gross Conceptual Failure). What is it?
