All,
I brewed my first all grain batch, last weekend. Making a 3 gallon batch, my pre-boil volume came out to around 4-4.5 gallons and had a gravity of around 1030-1035. The boil brought the volume down to right around 3.5 gallons but, like a D.A., I forget to take a gravity reading before transferring to the carboy and pitching the yeast.
is there any kind of formula I can use to get an idea of what the OG might've been, using the pre-boil volume/gravity compared to the post-boil volume?
I was shooting for around 1060. Do you think I'm at least close?
thanks
