      Hi, as the subject states I am chasing a BIAB recipe for a honey ale. I have a friend who has bees and has an abundance of honey. We have so far used it for a spiced mead which is 1 month in the fermenter.

      RJ

      My grain supplier thought the grain bill seemed too large for a 20ltr batch so he put the...

      Welcome reece,
      
      The Calculator has been superseded for a long time by the BIABacus. Use pre-release version, 1.3T. You can find a copy in this post . In the BIABacus, everything is automated for you, including efficiency.
      
      The BIABacus also uses Clear Brewing Terminology . The reason for the difference you have with The Calculator and ProMash is that the two 'programs' terms can mean entirely different things. For example, 'efficiency' can mean either kettle or fermentor efficiency. 'Batch...
