I have a grand soul gem I'm trying to fill, but I don't know what creatures have grand souls. I don't want to waste the gem with a less-than-grand soul.
How can I tell what type of soul an enemy has?

At first, this seems pretty straightforward:
So if you want to use your grand soul gems efficiently, you'll want to reserve them for mobs level 39 or higher.
But determining the mob's level is the tricky part. You can use the console command getlevel.
However, you don't have to worry too much about that, especially for soul gems. Bethesda knew you wouldn't know what level mobs are, so Soul Trap will automatically use the smallest possible gem you have available.
So if you want to efficiently use your grand soul gems, always have a stockpile of the smaller gems handy.
