Hello everyone,
I would like to lower my efficiency for my next brew to try to keep the ABV% on the lower end of the style I am going to brew (Scottish Heavy 70/-) right now as it sits with my current grain bill and my current efficiency I would be on the upper end of the style (1.040 OG).
What are some of the ways to lower your efficiency to bring the OG down to lets say 1.035 or 1.036?
I was thinking about doing a no sparge and just collecting the first runnings and then just top that up with water in the brew pot to achieve my pre-boil volume or is there a better way?
