Calculation method

Calculation method

Observed extract efficiency (%)

Efficiency=100×volume×1000(SG-1)/sum grainMass×potential.

Measured gravity-points×litres

Efficiency=100×volume×1000(SG-1)/sum grainMass×potential.

Theoretical gravity-points×litres

Efficiency=100×volume×1000(SG-1)/sum grainMass×potential.

Symbols and units
a
Grain masses (kg)
b

c
Measured collected wort volume (L)
d
Measured temperature-corrected wort SG

Use the units shown. A list keeps the order in which you enter its values. The symbol ^ means “raised to the power of”.

Assumptions & limits

Assumptions & limits

  • Values over100% retained as a record inconsistency indicator, not clipped. Supported limits: All required fields must be finite values of the exact declared type and within displayed bounds. Lists contain1–1000 finite numbers. JSON tables are numeric rectangular rows, at most100 rows and30 columns; individual tools have stricter shape/domain constraints. Values over100% retained as a record inconsistency indicator, not clipped.
