So after reviewing my last couple BIABacus files, I noticed that my evaporation rate is much lower than the expected rate. So for my next batch, I changed the default to 2.6 liters an hour. I know that's low, but, my system doesn't seem to evaporate or my boil isn't as rigorous.

Hi FatDog, the file is filled out well, so a few questions for you. First off, just in case, wanted to make sure you are using the amounts of grain on the right side of section C. How do you weigh your grain? Your mash volume looks a bit high, which seems to follow all the way through the brew. Ext...

Well, my gravity ended up a bit low. I think I'll be adding some DME to the fermentation chamber.

Here's the updated BIABacus file. I've got to work on my efficiency. I can't seem to get higher then around 60%. I stir occasionally and mash for 90 mins. I'll have to figure that out.

I'd like to try this recipe next. Attached is the Biabacus I've modified based on the discussion above. Does all this look right? I'll post my results as I go. FatDog, thanks for posting this - let's compare notes! I'm no expert, but, I'd say give it ago. As for the Citra hops, the more I drink thi...

Thanks PP! Streamer - thanks for catching that! Great Attention to Detail! I hadn't looked over at the far right column that deals with major default adjustments... Oops. You really don't want to mess with the defaults unless you are 100% certain you are right. FatDog - good explanations given by P...

FatDog - Something is not right with some of your measurements. Mash Volume is the content when the mash bag is in the boil pot. VIB - Volume Into Boil is after the bag has been pulled. Good job noting What you have, it takes a few times to get it all down...just recommend having you review the BIA...

Congrats Ron and glad to hear you are enjoying it all :peace:. Looks like you are keeping good records which is great. Oops! Hold on!.... I think your BIABacus file has been compromised at some point. See how, in Section B, your kettle diameter is 45.1cm and the height 39.0cm? The problem is that t...

Malinois Belgian Summer Saison

This is my 3rd eBIAB beer and is by far the best. Absoulutly delicious! I'm not a pro at tasting notes, but, this is spot on.

3rd eBIAB - Overshot my gravity - Good or Bad?

Hi all, I kegged my 3rd biab brew, a summer saison. It looks like I overshot my FG. What would cause that and is it a good or a bad thing? It tastes pretty good, but, I'm going to condition it in the keg for a few weeks. Groenendael Belgian Summer Saison - BIABacus PR1.3T.xls Appreciate your thought...
