How It Works
The boil-off rate calculator uses the formula: boil-off rate = (pre-boil volume – post-boil volume) / boil time. The result is displayed in gallons per hour. Additionally, the calculator displays the boil-off percentage, which is calculated as: (boil-off volume / pre-boil volume) * 100.
How to Use
- Enter the pre-boil volume in gallons.
- Enter the post-boil volume in gallons.
- Enter the boil time in minutes.
- Click the “Calculate” button to calculate the boil-off rate and percentage.
Common Questions
What is boil-off rate?
Boil-off rate is the rate at which water is lost during the boiling process, usually measured in gallons per hour. It is an important factor in brewing, as it can affect the final volume and gravity of the beer.
