    Is it possible to calculate the fields for beersmith from the data I have on the COA sheet for the grain
    The fields I'm looking to fill in are : potential, yield, coarse fine difference, diadastic power and protein ( though I don't know if of some of those values might not be so important )

    The important specs are the extract, dry basis (yield) of 84.6% and the color at 3.1 EBC. You can also enter in the total protein of 9.5%. BeerSmith does not at this point use diastatic power or the coarse/fine difference.

    When you fill out the yield, BeerSmith will automatically calculate the potential from that number.
