Hi everyone,
I'm an experienced brewer who's going to try something new. I'm planning to knock out a barleywine in the near future and I have a question about estimating efficiency.
My rig usually drops me right at 70% brewery efficiency. Should I expect a loss of efficiency just due to the lower than standard grain to water ratio? I'll be at nearly 22 pounds of grain.
Anyone have any good suggestions for dealing with 22 pounds of grain in my 10-gallon cooler? It'll fit - but like I said, I'll have a lower water to grain ratio than a normal batch.
