Does anyone know if there is a setting in Beer Alchemy to adjust the potency of Extracts that you are using in recipes? Maybe a PPG setting? I can't find anything of the sort.
My Original Gravity is always significantly lower than what the BA program calculates for Extract bewing. I spoke to my LHBS store and they suggested updating the PPG in my program but they were not familiar with Beer Alchemy. From the LHBS web site it states that they use Munton's Extract and have a description listed as:
""Our DME, provided exclusively by Munton-Fison, of Suffolk, England, is the finest dried malt extract in the world. These products are produced from 100% 2-row malted barley.
3 pounds of DME is roughly equivalent to 4 pounds of malt extract syrup.
Each pound of DME will increase alcohol by .8 percent. "
