Hey Friends,

I'm currently mid-sparge on an American Barleywine and I'm adding 1.5 lbs of brown sugar (golden brown) to the boil.

I'm using brewing software (Beer Alchemy) and they don't have a profile for brown sugar. I do have the ability to add and edit ingredients and my question is:

How do I calculate MCU or SRM for brown sugar?

I know that to calculate MCU the equation is MCU = (/L*pounds)/gallons...i have all the info, just don't know what lovibond brown sugar is.

Any help out there?

cheers.
