I just brewed the Juicy Bits recipe posted by Weldwerks in CB&B back in 2018: WeldWerks Juicy Bits Clone (NEIPA) | Community | BeerAdvocate
The only change I made was to sub in 5lb of plain 2-row for 5 lbs of the pale ale because I already had some. Other than that, followed the recipe to a T. Plugged everything in to beersmith and it estimated a SG of 1.066, just like the recipe says. I BIAB and crush the grains pretty fine (never have any issues hitting OG before). I can live with a couple points off but in this case my OG came in at 1.046. - 20 points off. Interested in hearing thoughts on what might cause an OG to come in that low.
