I noticed in Beersmith 2 that I have been figuring really low fly sparge amounts. I have never had this in Beersmith 1, or just didn't pay attention to it. I have enough room in my cooler to mash out and I usually fly sparge after the mash out. After my last figuring of a Breakfast stout with 17.13 lbs grain, I have negative fly sparge amount! There are a lot of adjustments I may be missing, or I am mentally missing something somewhere. My mash in is set at 1.2qt/lb. and the mash out is set at 2.108qt/lb. (this is what Beersmith 2 has set automatically) This gives me negative .26 gal water for fly sparge. What am I missing? Is this right? Do I need to change something in my mash profile?
