Hello,
I searched on "volume" in this forum but did not find my answer, sorry if I missed it.
Basically as the title says...
How many gallons of cooled wort do you/I need to end up with 5 gallons of beer in a corny?
I am doing BIAB and my last brew (#2 of my career ) ended up with 5.6 gallons of cooled wort, my target...and then I started thinking that was not enough.
So I lost a quart or so in the kettle and not sure how much is in the carboy bubbling away...5 +/- gallons I assume.
Then I will lose another couple quart or more to yeast and trub when I siphone it off to the keg.
So I will end up with 4.25 gallons in the keg?
What are you experiences?
thanks Kevin
