Looking at my Beersmith equipment setup profile, my post boil volume is actually about 6 gallons before losses to post boil losses and fermenter losses.
My confusion apparently was based on whether a "batch" is considered the final batch size or the "post boil size". Since I do use Beersmith...
I have been brewing for over 10 years and have often come across recipes that are made for a six gallon batch size. I don't quite understand this as the kegs typically old five gallons.
Making six gallons to ensure getting five seems a waste of a lot of beer.
What am I missing?

I received one of the two shirts I ordered today, hopefully the second went out on this last shipment.
BTW, nice shirt and thanks for organizing the shirt purchase.

By the mere nature of Beer, I would assume there are several of us plus sized guys.
I would take one of each if you can get 4X. ( I assume there would be an up charge).
