I'm trying to make a light lager for an event. I currently make 12gallon batches now (10 gallon when all is said and done).
I want to be able to put 15 gallon in a Sanke.
Because of BK restrictions (20gallon total). I'm considering blending.
I've read a little bit about it, but just need clarification. If I am planning for 14 gallon post boil volume, and probably get 13 gallons into the fermentor. After fermentation is complete I'll probably see another gallon of loss to trub.
So I would need 3 gallons of boiled and chilled water to add to get 15 gallons.
How can I use beertools pro to do this? Can I just scale my recipe for 15 gallons post-volume, and just do my own math of how much to fill the BK based on my boil off rate to get down to 14? Or what am I missing?
