I'm doing partial mash, and consistently hitting OGs lower than predicted. For example, I just did a Hefe and hit 1.041 OG when 1.050 was predicted. The only thing I can guess is maybe I need to measure my water add a little closer? Maybe my 5 1/4 gal line on the bucket is not where I think it is.
That being said the last few batches have had lower FGs than predicted, so although my OG and FG seem to be off a bit my Alcohol content is close to predicted, and my beer tastes decent.
I'm using a reverse flow chiller, so I know the wort is plenty cool, and following all other instructions to a 'T'.
Any suggestions?
