![]() It just allows users to control a bit of the software to help with process modeling. ![]() I know others will add some water to a thick sparge (usually higher temperature to start a mash out) to promote better drainage of the first runnings. The 'batch sparge using batches that fill %' is used by some users to keep their mash tun volumes in a safe zone. The good ones will have the pretty much the same inputs as BeerSmith to allow the user to match the software assumptions with observed data. There are a lot of other water volume calculators out there. I will ignore the grainfather questions, as I neither have the grainfather nor access to the software to puzzle it out. What is ?Batch Sparge Using Batches that fill %? used for? Given (1) why is there a difference between Beer Smith and Grainfather Where did the Grainfather numbers come from? I have not answered (at least) the following questions You will drive yourself crazy trying to rectify the answers of both, especially if you cannot see or adjust the assumptions equally. My first bit of advice is to pick the software you want to work with and forget the others. if there is a way to transfer the article here that would be better I am totally fine with that. If you find errors please post them here and Ill fix them. That being said, I hope that it helps in your understanding. I can guess as to the why, but I have only brewed 26 batches. The article is focused on the HOW of the calculations and not very much of the WHY. The spreadsheet with the calculations is available on GitHub at I posted the article on my IoT Blog but only because it was easier to edit there. ![]() Certainly close enough to help you understand the logic. I don't think that my answers are perfect, but they are close. I just finished an article about 1) how the Beer Smith 3.0.x Water Volume calculations work and 2) my spreadsheet version which I built to figure out the calculation. so I typically "go all the way" towards figuring things out. This turned out to be quite a bit of an adventure. I have been trying to reconcile the Beer Smith Water calculations against the Grainfather Software.
