(7) Of your 17.375 16.375 galllons of brewing water, 2.875 gallons is lost in the mash tun, so you will collect 13.5 gallons of wort. (6) Some research shows that you get the best efficiency in batch sparging if you make all of your runnings equal in size, and let's assume you will single-batch sparge. <- this is the total amount of brewing water you need. (5) You want 11 gallons in the fermenter, let's assume, to account for loss to sediment, so that gets us to 16.375 gal. for this example, so that gets us to 5.375 gal.)

(4) You need to factor in your kettle loss for hops absorbtion, trub, and deadspace (let's assume 0.5 gal. for this example, so that gets us to 4.875 gal.) (3) You need to factor in evaporation (let's assume 2.0 gal. for this example, so that gets us to 2.875 gal.)

(2) You need to add in your mash-side equipment loss (let's assume 0.5 gal. (1) Your grain will absorb around 1/8 gallon (0.125 gal.) per lb., or 19 x 0.125, or 2.375 gal, let's assume. This should be easy to figure out how much brewing water you need and the strike/sparge amounts, regardless of what Beersmith says: Your equipment profile is probably not customized properly, so it is throwing off Beersmith, as per the other comments, I guess.Ĭonsider comparing your results to Braukaiser's batch sparging/parti-gyle simulator.
