So I've had this issue crop up a few times now and I'm not sure why.
Whats happening is my post boil gravity is not what it's suppose to be. Mash goes fine, no issues, hit my number just fine. Sparge is fine, came within 3 points. Pre-boil gravity today was 1.051, was looking for 56... close enough. I have my boil off rate at 1g/hr. Boiled down just fine, ending with the correct amount. Now according to beersmith boil off tool, I should be at 1.061... nope.... 1.056. Why? I can't figure this one out... what am I missing here?
Yes I checked calibration on my refractometer this morning.
Thanks for any help!
