Malted to Unmalted Grain Conversion Ratio

[mrstoney]

I'm dealing with a situation where I'll be required to use un-malted grains with enzymes for my mash. To reach a particular specific gravity for the mash, I've heard that it takes more un-malted than malted grains. Does anyone know an approximate factor for barley and wheat malt grains to un-malted grains? 1.25? 1.5?

What ezymes are you using?
I currently use 0.25kkg/1000kg of barley. I add additional ezymes depending on grains used. Plus additional Mash water conditioning ph @ 5.6 adjusted with phosphoric acid and addition of CaCl2 as per your practice.
