Hi all! Finishing up my 3rd brew with the Spike solo 20g and my efficiencies have been quite low.
One batch was supposed to be 1.09OG and ended at 1.074
The last one was supposed to be 1.06 and was 1.04. 5gal batch though. 14lbs of grains.
My Brewfather equipment profile is set to 68% but this last one is like 45%.
Maybe I have a setting wrong? Am I under shooting the amount of grains I should use?
If so, based on my last brew how do i properly update my profile?
One thing to note is I am using a Brew Bag given to me back the last equipment's owner.... Might this lower efficiency? He said it just makes for an easier clean up.
Thanks!
Corey
