It seems I can never get beersmith to calculate the water right.
I want to go into my boil with close to 7 gallons, with boil off & what left in the kettle I like to end up with 5.5 to 5.75 in my primary so i can leave some with the trub and have a full 5 gallons in my secondary.
Here is what I am brewing tomorrow, but it only shows 4.75G with both the mash in and out water? Any suggestions?
