But I guess for my first AG brew i'm pretty much going to do what BS2 tells me to do, well pretty much.
Just a reminder, as many have stated earlier, BS2 equipment profiles should be set up to match your equipment as close as possible.
Seriously check out this link. It doesn't take long to read and follow the instructions for getting your equipment profile closer to your set up.

I'll be taking the suggested test measurements and logging them. After 5 or so brews I'll average and update my equipment profile to match.
I went through it, put in my equipment numbers and it did change the recipe potential outcome by quite a bit...
Going to mash in with 2.6 gallons of water at 163* water hoping that drops everything to 152 when I add my grain.
Don't be alarmed if it drops to 148-150, thats OK.
I think i'm just going to add the first 1.92 gallon to the initial mash, vorlauf, drain, and put to heat right away in my bk. And for the second i'll dump in my 3.51, stir, let sit a few mins, vorlauf, then drain.
That's how I plan on doing it this weekend...
Happy brewing! Keep us posted please!!
