Just to add some context here...as I mentioned in another thread I may do a half batch of this recipe...
Ingredients for 6 U.S. gallons (22.71 L)
10.0 lb (4.5 kg) pale two-row malt
12.0 oz (340 g) 20° L crystal
8.0 oz (227 g) 80° L crystal malt malt
8.0 oz (227 g) CaraVienne® malt
8.0 oz (227 g) wheat malt
(shortened for context...)
I got the strike/sparge volumes from this calculator by simply plugging in the 3 gallons final volume and 6.125 pounds of grain.
