I started two 5 gallon crack corn and cane sugar washes today... same ingredients in each bucket but one buckets starting SG was 1.080 and the other was 1.065

....i weighed everything on my grain scale to make sure i had the exact amounts in each... i really don't understand why they are different.. any ideas?

I sturred them equally... temps were a tad different (9 degrees).. maybe that was it...

That definitely could account for the difference... A hydrometer temperature correction chart should verify that for you...
