Has anyone ever measured the actual volume change of: 1 gallon water after adding X lbs dme (thoroughly dissolved)?
From this weekend's goof, I think it must have been that 3lbs of DME dissolved into 3 gallons of RO water gave me a starting boil volume of about 3.4 gallons, and my post-boil OG being 10 points lower than intended. (I was targeting 3 gallons in the boil, and 2.5 gallons post-boil).
