Does anybody really know how to use and adjust this thing? I feel like I've seen so many different articles and videos of people offering their own thoughts, but nothing too concrete.
This video for example, walks through a mock brew day and how to find your overall total efficiency. It ends with him doing a guess/check technique with his Equipment Profile Brewhouse Efficiency until his Est Mash Eff and Measured Mash Eff from the Mash tab were close in value. Is this accurate and if so, is this new Brewhouse Efficiency what I should plug in for future batches?

Here's one more thread that seems to follow that same idea. Maybe it really is just that easy? I'm struggling to understand the math behind it.

My last two batches had very drastic differences in mash efficiency and after comparing numbers over my last few brews, they seem to be all over the place. For instance, when I do the guess/check comparison thing mentioned above, I get 68% for one brew and 101% for the next. 101% isn't even possible! I plan to brew in the next few days and want to make sure I am narrowing in on my system's total efficiency.
Any and all advice or comments on the topic are absolutely welcome.
Thanks,
