Not really. I don't believe i know anymore about brewing than y'all do. But i am very precise with my readings. I measure my mash temperature in about 6 diff spots before i close the lid. I had to add 3/4 of a gallon of boiling water to raise my temps to 152, and after 30 minutes my temps were still at 151/152.
I also sparge very slowly, and i'm constantly tinkering with the flow rate.
I also vorlauf about 10-12 times before i start sparging.
Anyone else use beersmith when measuring efficiency? Seems like it matches up pretty well. I did a hand calculation the last 3 all-grain batches and i was pretty close.

That's what I use.
Haven't compared it to anything else though.
