Changing efficiency on pre-existing recipes.

Post by Suthrncomfrt1884 »

I found a clone recipe for Founder's Breakfast Stout that I'm excited about brewing. The problem is... the recipe lists it's efficiency at 64.8%.

I get around 72-75% on my system, so if I brew with the same amount of ingredients, I'll have a beer that's around 1.100 compared to 1.086.

I thought I had done this before, but basically what I need to do is this...

I've programmed the original recipe into Beertools. Instead of doing the math myself for how much less grain I need, can beertools do it for me?

Thanks everyone.
