Hi Everyone, I'm a new owner of a Spike nano Brew system, and I use BeerSmith. As far as I can tell, I've entered the correct profile for the Nano into BeerSmith (I used the profile that Spike themselves provided), and hops and grains seem to be scaled correctly. But the amount of water for the mash in and sparge seem like a LOT. And then, when I get to boil, I have way more preboil volume. BeerSmith says I should have 40.43 gals, but I ended up with 45! And then, using the steam condenser lid, my post boil volume was 40 gallons. Of course, my OG gravity was terribly low.
Has anyone else encountered this problem? What am I doing wrong and any advice on how to fix it?
