Hello.

I'm using biab with 72l pot. I have different vessels sizes for fermentation 2x23L, 2x25L and 2x30L. I have setup my profile to be ok for 21L batches but sometimes I want to make a bigger batches with the same equipment. What I initially did was create the recipe with default profile from Brewing Classic Styles, and then I scaled the recipe using my 23L profile but set larger batch size than the profile is set for in the scale recipe dialogue. What I would think is that it would use the profile and scale it up to my requested batch size but after I scaled the recipe I had second thoughts.

So the question is:
Do I need to setup different profiles for the different batch sizes or does the above method of scaling with different batch sizes work correctly?

Regards,
Johann
