I am trying to enter a cider recipe into Beersmith, but the when I add the cider to the recipe it asks for pounds of cider not gallons. Is there any way to change this? Thanks.
Use lbs. Add the applejuice as a new grain, and make it's Specific Gravity 1.042 and SRM of 3.
The SG of any malt is simply the expected SG of 1 lb. of that malt in 1 gallon of wort. If you are adding a liquid, choosing lbs is the same as gallons.
sorry i was away for a while, it is here in the mead forum if u go down the page a little there is the mead calculator spreadsheet. it works great and i now use it for my cider and wines, i use beersmith just to keep the dates. i just add the correct info to the notes section.
