Hello All:
I am an extract / specialty grains brewer since 2001 and I am currently running Beersmith under Wine under Ubuntu 10.10. Anyway, I am trying out Brewtarget and I have a few questions:
1. I usually do a 2.5 USG boil and then add cold bottled water to make 5 or 5.5 USG depending on my target batch size. In Brewtarget, I put that my target boil size is 2.5 or 3.0 and Brewtarget thinks that this is how much wort I finished with. What's the best way to tell it that I am adding water other than making a bogus boil size?
2. In Beersmith, I had a place where I could enter my brewday actual "observed" OG and then my observer FG. This did my calculations for my actual ABV. Where can I do this in Brewtarget? I can only find the OG anf FG ranges per the style of beer.
Thanks in advance.
Jim
