Hello all. I've been using Brewer's Friend to build my first few all grain recipes, but for the first time I plugged in a recipe from Brew Your Own and found that the numbers don't match up, and I'm wondering what I'm missing. I'm planning on doing the Anchor Steam Porter Clone recipe with the following grain bill:
11 lbs. 2 row pale
1.5 lbs crystal 40
12 oz chocolate
12 oz black
Comes out to 1.070 OG and 1.022 FG at their default 65% efficiency. However, when I plug it into BF, I only get 1.059 for a batch size of 5.5 gal (into fermentor). If I bring it down to 5 gal batch size it's still only 1.065. That's a big difference! What am I forgetting? Was looking forward to having real numbers to base my final results on but now I'm not sure which set of OG's to go with. Oh, and I'm doing BIAB no-sparge so 65-67% efficiency is about what I've been getting.
