I'm trying to add a recipe from the book Modern Homebrew Recipes by Gordon Strong and I've noticed a large differance in the total grain bill once the grain is entered into BIABacus.....yet only a 2 litre difference in VAW.
The recipe is the Galaxy Pale Ale and the total grain bill is 5967g for a VAW of 25 litres. "Quote from the book....My recipes measure the volume of wort left in the kettle at the end of the boil, not the amount of beer in a keg when packaged".
My desired VAW is 23 litres with a desired VIF of 21 litres.....yet the total grain bill to suit my 23 litres is 4728g.....a difference of 1239g...or put it another way....a 21% less grain bill.
In section D The original recipes volume of ambient wort VAW is 25L.
In section B The desired volume into fermentor VIF 21L
In section C the EBC & SRM are blank.
A 23% less grain bill for only a 8% less liquid volume.
Does this seem right?
Cheers Mark
