So I am in the process of doing my 5th batch of all grain as I type (I am waiting for it come boil) and I am consistently obtaining a 75% efficiency. Don't get me wrong I am definitely not complaining about this number but I am hoping to see if there are any suggestions out there on how I can squeak out a few more points.
Here is my system:
- I'm crushing my own grain with a barley crusher
- Using the homemade cheap and easy MLT (and getting great temp results)
- I do batch sparging and break it up into two different batches...as a word of note I have not been doing a mash out until this batch and I got the same 75%
- The estimation of my pre-boil batch size in my kettle is from the sight glass from a Blichmann 10 gal boilermaker
I think that these are all the variables that matter in my efficiency, if there is anything else in my setup that matters let me know and I'll describe it.
Thanks for the help!
