Anyone know what the e^ in this formula is?



utilization = (1.65 * 0.000125^(wort gravity - 1)) * (1 - e^(-0.04 * time in mins) )
(---------------------------- )
( 4.15 )
 
thanks man i owe you one... figured out that formula for my excel sheet and let me tell you it wasn't easy to get some of those figures to work with excel

In Excel you can use "exp(--)" for the exponential.

Thanks I actually just did this:


Utilization = (1.65*0.000125^(OG-1))*((1-2.72^(-0.04*Hop Boil Time))/4.14)

IBU = Utilization *(oz*(AA% / 100)* 7490) / Volume of Batch in Gallons


Thanks for your help. I got it to work perfectly in excel. I just like playing around with these math formulas :)

Cheers
