I've nee building my system for the last 2 years. I got all excited after finishing my PID controller and go to order grain last night for my first all grain brew today, come to the recipe and it's gone? I did find a saved version of the recipe but, it would be good to know where it went?DrSmurto said:Not sure why the recipe is not in the recipeDB, my other recipes are. Hopefully the mod team can update us soon.
Meanwhile, fire away with any questions.
I think you add enough 60min hops to bring it up to 30IBU.Matplat said:In your recipe that idzy posted, you say magnum at 60mins to 30IBU then victoria at 20 and 0mins. That then pushes the IBU up towards 50, is that right? or is the 30IBU meant to be the total, seems like 30IBU would be a more balanced beer...
Also, what OG do you shoot for?
Cheers, Matt
I always work backwards with hop additions when using brewing software.Matplat said:In your recipe that idzy posted, you say magnum at 60mins to 30IBU then victoria at 20 and 0mins.

Thanks Doc, that is as i suspected, just wanted to confirm.DrSmurto said:I always work backwards with hop additions when using brewing software.
Add 0 mins hops first which add 0 IBU then other late additions. Once they are sorted add your 60 min addition to hit your desired total IBU. In this case it is 30.
OG is 1.045 from memory.
That really makes a lot of sense. Embarrassingly I have never thought to do it that way around but will from now on in!DrSmurto said:I always work backwards with hop additions when using brewing software.
