Hi guys, I was hoping to get some efficiency questions answered. I finally switched over to all grain, so happy I did. I brewed a Scottish 80 type for my first one. I researched for a bit on the beer I wanted to go with and put it together.
21 # of 2 row
2# roasted barley
1# Vienna
1# caramel 40
I boiled 14 gallons and ended with 12. My target was 1.052 OG at 75%
I am using the beer recipe calculator app. My reading came out to 1.060. According to the app I am running at 89% efficiency. My question is can this be true? I was shooting for a 5% ABV but it looks like I will be closer to 6%+.
I still have some learning to do but what a great new experience.
