Thanks. I didn't know that. I'll give it a try.

Sitting here wondering if this damn beer is ever going to finish carbonating and trying not to drink the barlywine I've put away (the rest of) for long term storage.

Moral learned: Don't EVER stop home brewing. It will just throw you out of sync!

sorry El P and i hijacked the thread. fishing thing!

denny, did the #'s work out?

What tab in the session does it do the est fg. I see fields for actual OG and FG and est OG but not est FG.

Tounge tied yet?

I never played around with the session part before. I kept putting it off because I was going to do the tutorial, but then I started playing around with the recipe design section and forgot what the sessions were even about!

I think I'll try out the tutorial now...finally.

it's under the fermentation tab.

Unless I'm missing it somewhere it doesn't actually have a field for 'Estimated FG', but if you click on the 'Fermentation' button it will pre-populate the observed FG with an estimate based on the yeast you've selected. You can go back later and write over it when you actually measure your FG.

it estimated mine because i never put in the FG, because it's not kegged yet. it doesn't say "estimated FG" but it does give a FG, like you said, based on your recipe and ingredients, ferm time, temps, etc.

give the ABV and ABW also.

OK, Thanks. I saw that but wasn't sure if it just an arbitrary value or if it was actually calculated. It was giving me a FG of 1.012 and I thought it should be about 1.015 using Windsor yeast. (OG of 1.063)

Do you find you hit the Est FG?

usually i do!

Thanx fellas,

Just did my first all-grain batch using promash, and I was very impressed. The strike temps were very accurate, and my final gravity turned out to be right on. 70% efficiency - not bad..not bad...

We have good steady bubbles this morning!
