Never trust a (digital) scale...
My efficiency has been bad for a good while. I have explored all sorts of possible causes. Sometimes you might not actually have bad efficiency! Just bad data.
I was doing a beer bread recipe yesterday which called for 340ml of beer. I only had a 440ml tin of Heineken which I was prepared to use. I thought I would rather just weigh it out than dirty a measuring jug. My Heineken came out at a starting weight of 285g!
As a double check, I then filled a light plastic jug with exactly 1 litre of water.... Apparently that only weighs 800g
If that error is a percent basis constant, that's would have a huge effect in terms of efficiency! Needless to say, next brew is going to be interesting
