Partigyle Mash Designer Request

Post by wottaguy »

Of all the features that have been requested, I would like to see the addition of a partigyle mash designer. A partigyle mash is where you mash a bunch of base grain to allow you to create more than 1 kind of beer at the same time. For instance, a 1.066 OG IPA and a 1.048 OG Pale Ale in 2 different kettles and 2 separate runnings. The splits can be either 50/50, 1/3 - 2/3 or even 25/75. I have worked up my next brewing session (by hand and pencil and paper) to be a 1/3 - 2/3rds batch (5 gall/10gall) and will be brewing an IPA (the 1/3) and a Pale Ale (2/3) from the same mash. 2 boil kettles are requierd as are 2 different hopping schedules. I have calculated that the mash will take a total of 30 lbs of grain, and that will give me a total mash gravity of 1.051. The first runnings will be 7 gallons and should come in at a pre-boil gravity of 1.061.
Would a partigyle mash designer be in the future of BTP? I sure hope so! Any comments?
