Thanks for this.
My mash efficiency was 73%. Brewhouse efficiency was 71.6% but used 75% in the calculation.
No lumps of grain and my sparge was 40 minutes for 8.6l of water.
I ended up with 17l going into the FV rather than the expected 15l.
Thanks again for your help.

Low OG
I use a Grainfather. For every brew I get a lower than expected OG. As an example tonight I’ve brewed an IPA with an expected OG of 1.059. My OG is 1.047.
Any thoughts greatly appreciated?

When to add chemicals
I've been through my water report and figured out that I need to add 5g of Gypsum and 7.5ml of CRS/AMS to brew my green hop pale ale. Do the chemicals go into the mash water all at once or should they be divided between the mash water and the sparge water? Any guidance would be greatfully appreciated.
