I plan on bottling a 2.5 gallon IPA tonight. I have used the various online priming calculators and come up with about 1.75 oz of corn sugar based on 2.3 gallons of beer.
My question is how can I accurately determine the volume of beer that will be bottled? I realize that it will not be a full 2.5 gallon batch based on the thick layer of gunk I have at the bottom of my carboy. Is there an easy rule of thumb to follow as to how much beer is lost in this process?
