Not sure if this helps, but I soaked my dehydrated peel from the kit in 4 oz of vodka in a normal mason jar. After soaking up the liquid, it filled it about 1/3. Didn't take a weight measurement or anything though

Grapefruit Pulpin' AG from Northern Brewer. Looking good so far. Looks like the recipe is for a 63-65% efficiency, so keep that in mind (there's an active thread around here discussing it)

Just brewed my first 5 gallon batch last Saturday (Grapefruit Sculpin clone) and brewed a Left Hand Milk Stout clone last night. Also just ordered 3 recipe kits from Northern Brewer for $20.16, so I'm excited to build out this pipeline

I just noticed that Beersmith was calculating the IBU at around 45, when the original is around 70. Does this seem right? I just racked to secondary and tried the hydrometer sample and it didn't seem very bitter.

Actually, your post made me recheck my Beersmith inputs. I had too much of the Cara in there, so my efficiency actually came out to 65%, but yes, the measured OG was 1.065

Just brewed this AG recipe last night. Got a 63% efficiency, which was kind of disappointing. Though this is my first 5 gallon batch with new equipment, so hopefully it will get better.
