I did a search but didn't see anything but I am not confident with the terms I used.
Anyhow, I am brewing Partial Mash batches. At times My gravity readings for both boil and upon pitching are low. I have been using my refactometer for the readings. I know that I have read where some people brewing PM or AG will keep some extract on hand to throw in the boil in the event they are short in the gravity readings.
My question: Is there a quick way to calculate how much extract is needed on the fly? I know I can add it in Beersmith, but when I am brewing I don't have access to the software. I am assuming people aren't just blindly adding extract but perhaps I am off-base.
Any input would be extremely appreciated!
Thank you
