I've been reading about FWH and would like to try it since everything I read states the bitterness is smoother. My question is why don't calculators calculate any bitterness when you add in FWH numbers? I don't want to over bitter my batch. Thinking of a nice Amarillo/Citra IPA or Pale ale.
My understanding is FWH is placing your first hop addition to the boil kettle while lautering your wort into the kettle. So the hops stay in for the entire boil, so wouldn't you get the same # IBUs as a 60 min boil?
