Just wondering if any beersmith users out there could tell me if the program takes into account absorption of the grain when mashing in. If so, how can I change it
Thanks

It does bigfridge HERE but looks like you can't tweak it. I find the standard grain absorbtion in Beersmith a little short, about .75L short in 6Kg grain.
I wanted to change it as i found when i was doing the mash that the mash was very thick (not much liquid above the grain). Which i think contributed to another stuck sparge. So thats two stuck sparges from my first two all grainers. But thats for another post. (Im looking for something to blame)
3. Recirculating using a plastic lid with lots of holes, so's not to disturb the grain bed. This distributed fine particles over the top of the grain creating an impervious layer of grey mud. Think this may have also been due to running too fast when recirculating. I now open the valve only about half for recirculation, seems to run clear more quickly.
