Even Brad Smith suggests that the equipment profiles that come in Beersmith are only to be viewed as starting points. The way you use any given system may not be the same way someone else uses it. 7.5G adjusted ph strike water, 10# flaked maize, 5# two row. Whatever system you have it is always best if you create your own, personalized, equipment profile. Even though I think the 2 row will probably provide enough diastatic potential to take care of the flaked maize conversion, a teaspoon of amylase cant hurt anything. I have a dry sachet of amylase enzyme to use in my flaked maize/two row wash. I'll try that program and see what it calcs my OG to be. I am familiar with Brewers Friend and actually use it to calc brew house efficiencies. I always choose all grain and I bump up my efficiency a little as well (liquid enzymes sure can convert!). Brewers friend has flaked maize and will certainly give you an sg based on it. I only used it once or twice before finding out about Brewer's Friend and that was quite a while ago so I cannot recall. What did you do to make BS work to give you an OG? want to focus on the recipes- I made the English Porter yesterday and I wish I would have built the recipe out in Brewers Friend or BeerSmith first. Even when I did 10# flaked maize and 5# two row, the OG was only what the two row brought to the table. For some reason when I plugged in flaked maize into BeerSmith the program doesn't want use that grain as a fermentable sugar. It has quite a few grains and I think it helps get me in the ballpark. The difference between Brewers Friend and Qbrew for ME IS I have never been able to get Qbrew to work even a little Downloaded and installed to 2 different computers. alculator/" onclick="window.open(this.href) return false " rel="nofollow.
