So I have my system dialed in pretty well at 75% eff. That has been my standard on my current equipment.
So the last two batches I brewed I had 83% and 89%. 83% was on a new mill, but from a store Ive gotten 75% regular. 89% was from BW, who always gets me 75%.
The only change to my process was adding of a new march pump (AHS group buy). I used the pump to recirculate the wort for two minutes prior to draining the mlt, and two minutes before draining each of my 2 batch sparges. I also used the pump to go from mlt to bk, instead of gravity.
Can the pump be the reason for the jump? After the 83%, I figured maybe it was the crush from a new mill. After the 89% the next day, that was from a known crush, Something else is the reason.
thoughts?
