I recently moved form Chicago to Denver and am curious if anyone here has any tips or advice for brewing in high altitude. I made my first two brews (IPA and Porter) a few months ago and witnessed first hand the necessity to increase my boil volume due to the increased evaporation (I increased 5.5 gal to 7.0 gal). What I was not expecting was the 0.5 gallons of evaporation loss during secondary fermentation. Is this typical or did I do something wrong on both batches? Is my 7.0 gal boil volume off?
Anyone, please help.
