I just started using ibrewmaster and it seams to be estimating the FG very high, e.g. A 1.050 OG with a light body mash schedule is coming in at 1.013 FG. Also when I add table sugar as a fermentable it increases the FG Instead of dropping it. I have tried using my own equipment setup as well as the default settings. Any advice?
 
The FG is calculated based upon the attenuation numbers listed within the yeast profile you're using. I have found that these aren't always accurate, and often use the low end of the range given by the manufacturer. Go into your Yeast entry in the recipe and adjust the Attenuation setting to an accurate number. Hope that helps!
