So I have a recipe for a rauchbier and I plugged it into both beersmith and brewtarget and came out with two wildly different IBUs. I have the same boil volume / batch volume / efficiency for each so I don't know what went wrong...
The IBUs:
Beersmith 33.2
Brewtarget 41
OG/ABV:
Beersmith: 1.050/5.1%
Brewtarget: 1.044/4.3%
Here's the recipe:
Partial Mash
5 Gallon Batch
2 lbs light DME (24% grain bill)
2 lbs Weyermann's smoked malt (24% gb)
3 lbs Munich (35% gb)
1.5 lbs Vienna (18% gb)
1.5 oz Vanguard pellets 60 min
0.5 Vanguard pellets 30 min
0.5 Vanguard pellets 3 min
WL029 German Ale/Kolsch Yeast (fermented at lower end of fermentation range)
