I have done about 10 AG batches now and my efficiencies are all over the place... sort of, all of my pales, IPA's and even hefs have been in the 75-78% range and all my stouts, browns and porters have been from 82-87% any ideas why these two groupings of numbers? Are stouts easier than pales to high efficiencies?
I use bottles of water (the 5 gal ones from culligan) and have been adding some salts (gypsum, chalk, etc when appropriate by style), and just recently added some 5.2 stabilizer also, my numbers went up 1-2% from these tweaks but I still have these groups and large gap between pales and darks?
Thoughts?
Thanks
