I've done two AG brews so far. I think I have a handle on what my efficiency is for my setup. And what I need to change in order to improve it. But, I don't know how/what to change in my brewing to achieve similar results to someone brewing the same recipe.
1st, I notice with all the recipes posted, no one ever lists efficiency. Is it just assumed that the recipe is for 100% eff? And you have to adjust the recipe to take into account your efficiency?
2nd, I assume I'd have to adjust the grain bill to reflect my efficiency based on the recipe given @ 100%? If so, how do I go about doing that? Are all grains compensated in the same way? Or do you just do the base malts?
I'm using Brewtarget as my brewing software. I've tried manipulating the recipe based on my eff but I could never get "the numbers" to come out the same as it was @ 100%. I could get it close but I'm not sure if I was adjusting the grain bill correctly.
