Any one care to say if my math is right?

Mash ratio
1.33 qt/lb
1.25 L/lb
2.75 L/kg

Have I got it right? (I know it's variable, it the convertion I'm trying to figure)

What about this?
Absorbtion Rate
0.1 g / lb
0.38 l/lbs
0.83 l/kg

Thanks
 
Batch size required 19.0L
Kettle loss 5.0L
Boil loss / hour 10.0%
Pre boil size 25.9L
Losses
Mash tun loss 2.3L
Mash absorbtion 0.8L/kg

Total Mash tun loss 6.3L
Mash rate

Mash Water Volume 18.2L
OR 50/50 16.1L

Thanks, straight conversions are easy; it's the ratios and volume/weight thing that I find tricky


I find all math tricky. :p You should have seen me trying to figure out how much brewing water I needed before I had promash. :rolleyes:

Right assuming US liquid gallons and quarts, but not for Imperial, German or Ancient Hebrew quarts.
