Hey guys just looking for a little feedback on my beersmith setup.
I basically want to brew around 1 gallon or more of beer for bottling, im not accounting for trub loss or fermentation loss because I don't know what them losses are and I also read a lot of comments from people saying set them to 0 and just account for the water volume in the batch size, Im not worried about leaving some behind due to trub and fermenter loss as long as I get around 1 gallon or more of beer in bottles, so the final volume isnt set in stone, once my set up produces beer with the correct, gravity,colour bitterness etc...
Is there anything wrong with this set up or has anyone got any tips.
I also chose the biab medium mash profile in beersmith as im doing biab, it's telling me to mash for quite a long time is this ok? Most mashs Iv seen are usually 60 to 90 mins and beersmith is telling me to do one for 1:42
Thanks for the help
