Question for everyone out there. I've been brewing for quite awhile now. Just completed my 157th batch. The last 3 batches I've noticed a trend and am a bit baffled by it. My pre-boil gravity readings have been exact based on Beersmith. But my OG readings have been 2-3 points below what is estimated (example: 1.049 vs 1.052). So what is the deal? It will be fine as I am not worried, just a bit curious. The one thing that I've noticed is that my boil has been inconsistent (too vigorous, then too light). These have also been 10 gal batches from my usual 5 gal. Anyone with experience in this? Thank you in advance, cheers and have an amazing weekend!
