Did my first all grain tonight. learned a lot about the equipment I'm using. Preboil gravity came out ok, post boil OG came out ok, but ended up 1 gallon down at about 4 gallons. Did not top up to a full 5 gallons with H2O. Will this cause any type of probolem? I'm assuming adding the H2O would just dilute the OG and FG.
Brewhouse total efficiency went to 57% because of low volume. But low OG by topping up would do the same thing.
Ultimately would increasing sparging volume fix this problem, so I would not have to top up after boiling?
