I'm trying to set up a mash profile in beersmith2 and really have no idea what I'm doing
Can anyone help me with this?
I plan on doing partial volume BIAB brews. I have a 20qt pot, so figure I can't really boil more than 3.5 gallons at a time.
My thoughts are to mash with 1 quart per lb. of grain, and sparge with 1.25 quarts per lb. I'm not sure if this is reasonable thinking, or if I am limiting myself somehow by looking at it this way, but besides the large boil pot I have two other pots available that each hold a maximum of about 6 quarts(just about to the brim).
I was considering using one of the smaller pots to mash in and the other to heat sparge water.
Not sure what other information might be needed to help with setting this up.
Thanks
