I've come to conclusion that this hobby has quite a few recovering software nerds, so hoping someone will know what I'm looking for! For those that aren't recovering software nerds, lint was a program that would check your source code for errors, bugs, and undefined behaviors . See lint on wikipedia
So anyways, I'm wondering if there's anything similar for beer recipes, something that looks that the style of beer being attempted and the percentages of each ingredient, and can then list "warnings" about it. Like, "that's going to be super roasty using that much roasted barley and dark chocolate, consider reducing amount or doing a cold steep". Or "that is an aggressive amount of IBUs per OG"
Assuming there isn't already any such software (I couldn't find any), is there a list of general rule-of-thumb usages anywhere?
