I know there are a lot of "First All Grain" posts, however I have some specific questions after this run.
I'm not going to obsess over my efficiencies in general, however for my first few all grain batches, I'm going to track them til we get mid-80's or low 90's.
My biggest question is more regarding something dumb that I did than technique (maybe thats the same thing).
I took my First runnings gravity, batch sparge 1 gravity and batch sparge 2 gravity, however somehow I forgot to get a sample once we starting heating for the full boil. How can I get a decent estimate on what my SG would have been?
Also, what would a decent estimate be for grain absorbtion? x quarts of water absorbed by x pounds of grain?
Thanks for all the advice while we moved to all grain. Many of you have been a real help.
