![]() ![]() Lauter Tun Losses: About 1 liter for every kg of malt used. The data regarding the mash tune are approximates with a 0,5-1 kg or liter margin. Mash Tun Addition: This is absolutely your call: if you wish to fill up the tanks, there’s no technical obstacle to do this, but you have to take care not – it shouldn’t spill over! Mash Tun Specific Heat: With Brewie’s stainless steel frame, this is 0,12 Cal/gram-deg C. ![]() Mash Tun Weight: Since the Brewie is an unseparable brewing device, the weight of the mashing tun is insignificant. However, you should prepare your recipe to not exceed 22 liters with adding the malt and the mashing water. Mash Tun Volume: The mashing tank’s volume is 27 liters, while to boiling tank’s is 23 liters. In case of a Rusty Rex, the temperature is above 85C for 15+30+3 minutes.īrewhouse Efficiency: This also depends on the actual recipe – it varies between 62-72%. Whirlpool Time: This is also recipe-dependent. Large Batch Hop Util: Since Brewie has a less than 76L volume, you should leave it at 100%. If you choose drain all, you can salvage all the loss, leaving 0l in the tank.īoil time: It is absolutely recipe-dependent – you can boil for 20 minutes as well as 120 minutes.īoil Off: With closed lids, Brewie boils away about 2 litres of water (about 13% to be more specific) – if the lids are open, it can go up to 4l. Loss to Trub and Chiller: If you use only the standard draining, which leaves sediment at the bottom of the boiling tank, about 3l of wort will remain. Top Up Water: Again, this is your own setting: if you wish to add water to the pre-fermentation wort, fill it with the appropriate amount. If the maximum amount of water was added, it’s 23 liters (27 liters of water is being used overall).įermenter Loss: This depends on mainly your own fermenting equipment, so we advise to conduct measures with a previously tested recipe. Whichever you choose, you have to fill in the following questions:īatch volume: The amount of the batch left before fermentation depends on the recipe, the added water during the brewing and the boil off (which depends on the position of the lids). To save Brewie as a standard brewing device, you have to open the Insert/Equipment wizard or the Insert/Add equipment menu. So, to have a recipe adjusted to Brewie, you will need to previously add these details. To appropriately use Beersmith, however, users need many details about their equipment – from the size of its starting batch to any loss of water it produces. With its database, an infinite number of beer recipes can be remade, customized or designed from scrap. (PS: I'm using beersmith 1 - you can do the same with beersmith 2 by using the sliders for gravity and color) and presumably any other software that scales ingredients to give control over gravity, batch size and color.Beersmith, as a widely known digital tool for brewing is getting more and more popular among homebrewers. With the recipe emulating what you now have going into the kettle, you can then start to add adjuncts and hops to the recipe and and the additional gravity and IBUs will be computed correctly. To hit the SG you'll need to add top-up water to compensate for the boil-off - since the gravity units were computed using the post-boil target.It's usually a small amount compared to the base malt, so gravity remains unchanged. Beersmith will scale the amount of the dark grain to approximate the color. ![]() Add 1 oz of black malt/roasted barley, then choose "color" and enter an estimate of your wort's color. If you want you can also approximate for color.(Since we already set the batch size in step 1, the recipe is already to scale so this part can be skipped.) Click "scale" and enter 3.6 gallons - the amount of grain will be scaled to give 3.6 gallons at 1.034.If we take the potential points of the grains, and multiply it by this percentage we get the points extracted from the mash. It is typically a percentage in the 80 range. Click "gravity" and enter 1.034 as the target gravity - the software will now increase the amount of grain you need. Mash efficiency is simply the percentage of potential sugars that are extracted from the grains during the mash.create a new recipe and set your desired batch size.Since you already have your wort, and know the volume and gravity, you don't need an accurate grain bill for that part, but just need to get the software to register 3.6 gallons of 1.034 wort. ![]()
