Because it's judgement that defeats us.
I brew in the mountains at about 7000 ft elevation. Water boils at a little under 200 F. When I brew someone else's recipe, I usually bump up the hops a bit based on experience, but I never really know if my beer tastes like the recipe intended. For those who brew at altitude, what do you do about hop adjustments based on your elevation?
I'm not trying to exclude flat-landers. Any science-based suggestions? If you think an adjustment is appropriate, should it apply to bittering additions only, or would it apply to late additions and hop stands too?
