When I'm using beer calculus or another program to design recipes, how do I set the batch volume? Is it the volume of the batch at start of fermentation or is it the anticipated volume you plan to bottle or keg?
For instance, if I start with 5.5 gallons in the fermenter, I will usually end up bottling about 5 gallons. So to calculate IBUs, OG, yeast pitching rates, etc., would I use 5.5 or 5 gallons?
