Well, I've taken the plunge and I'm mashing.

BlightyBrewer said:Come on guys, how do you calculate efficiency?
BTW, I'm totally and utterly sh%gged out! I haven't eaten, SWMBO wants my head on a platter for taking up the kitchen all day. This beer better be worth it!
Seriously, I just use Promash...if it says 83%, then good job! I take a reading from the kettle before I start boiling...make sure you mark in Promash that the reading was taken from the kettle and not from the fermentor, and note that the volume reading is fairly important in terms of an accurate eff. reading.BlightyBrewer said:Come on guys, how do you calculate efficiency?
