So I have done a few BIAB and I was wondering how to calculate total efficiency for my brew house on beersmith. I routine boil down to 5.5 gallons but I only transfer 5 to the fermenter.
should I enter 5.5 gal to calculate my efficiency or should I use 5 gals? I would think 5.5 since that takes into account all the potential wort I made. If hats the case I'm getting 77-80% efficiency easily. Otherwise it's 72%. Just wondering how others calculate so I know if I'm doing it wrong or misrepresenting my efficiency.
This is post boil pre fermentation.
