I brewed a stout last night using an existing recipe I had in Brewmate but changed the grain bill and hops around to make an Oatmeal stout.
I didnt noice that the no chill box was ticked until I had finished brewing (Last time I brewed this I didnt own a chiller like I do now)
The hop additions was just 15 grams of Fuggles, 15 g of Northdown and 15 g of EKG at 60 mins and the IBUs came out at 36.5. When I unticked No chill it only dropped the IBUs to 35. Not much difference really.
How does Brewmate work out its Chill v No Chill hop calculations? I would have thought the diference would have been a lot more than just 1.5 IBUs?
