I am brewing this Sweet Stout this weekend. It's actually a Coffee Vanilla Stout, but since the flavorings will be added to the secondary, I did not add them to the recipe.
I usually use Brew Calculus to check my recipes. This time, for whatever reason, I also used Brewer's Friend. The differences between the two calculations is tremendous. Please take a look at the two screen shots and tell me what you think is going on here. There are drastic differences between the OG, FG, ABV, SRM and IBU.
Also, I am brewing a 2.75 gallon batch, but my grain bill (backing out the lactose) is over 7 lbs., which is necessary, according to Beer Calculus, to conform to a Sweet Stout style. Is there something wrong with either, or both, or these calculations?
Thanks
