Hi there.
I brewed and Bavarian Wheat last night and ended up with 120% efficiency due to boil downs, etc. in having trouble scaling it for next time because iBrewmaster 2 doesn't allow for 120% efficiency.
Any help would be helpful.
Recipe for Sentinel Hefeweizen:
5 lbs white wheat (54%)
3 lbs Pilsen 2-row
1 lb rye malt (I know, taboo)
Crystal hops.
Weihenstephan yeast.
Mashed decoction.
Got 2.5 gallons from first pull. This was set to boil for 2 hours. (1.070).
Sparge second gyle 1.020- 4 gallons. Boiled 90 minutes.
Ended up after boil with 1.090 and 1.030 for first and second gyle. Cooked and checked gravity - 1.065. Goal was 1.046 at estimated 80% eff. Since I gained a third should I reduce grain bill to 75% of total?
Thanks in advance!
