I'm not liking beersmith water calculations. I've brewed a witbier and a cream ale using beersmith and both times my mash ended up like thick oatmeal lacking enough water. I use keggles and put in the 1 gallon of deadspace under the false bottom. What do you guys think i am doing wrong? I was thinking about just filling up the grain bed 1" above the grains and then using the sparge to come up with what is needed for boil volume.
