Quick and Dirty Batch Sparging Calculator

a10t2:
I finally got tired of googling my own forum posts to find my formulas, so I put together a pretty basic calculator for estimating batch-sparging efficiency. It really only does one thing, but it should do it pretty well. Reality checks are always appreciated. Any feedback or requests, let me know.

Cool! Thanks Sean!  I'll give it a shot this weekend.

Any way to take mash efficiency into account?  You assume 100%, I'm usually around 96-98%.

Very nice Sean!

Thanks!

You could just knock a bit off the potential extract field, to 74% or so. I typically plug in 73% (~94% conversion efficiency) to give myself some wiggle room, then dilute in the kettle if I'm more than a few points off.
