When you entered the original recipe did you enteritis with the correct efficiency percentage as well as ingredients and check the box to keep everything the same when you then scaled the batch size to your profile and efficiency %?

Not sure but that may be the issue

 

[calebstringer]

yep. EdWort lists it at 75%, and I generally calculate at 64%. I tried it both ways (in regards to the box) and get the same thing each time....

Right, but my question is did you input the recipe at 75% and then scale it at the 64% with the box checked?

 

[calebstringer]

yes sir

 

[duboman]

yes sir

Then I'm confused as well, that's never happened to me before

 

[calebstringer]

I don't get it at all. I even upped the original recipe to 1lb of c10, and it still dropped it to .79 when scaling to 10 gallons

I scaled a moose drool clone and it scaled fine. So........
