Sorry if this is a repeat - the search engine isn't working for me (links anybody?)
After completing my first no-chill brew I noticed a distinct step up in bitterness from what I'd expected - I was aiming for 32IBU (25 @ 60min, 7 @ 30min) in a beer with an OG of 1.042, but it's fairly intense. Tastes like about 45IBU.
Now I know people have differing no-chill techniques. Personally, I just went straight from flameout into the cube and let the thing cool overnight.
Is there a way to modify the bittering calcs to compensate for no-chill?
