Brewing Taste Calculator

[Steven Barrett]

I know there are many individual brewing calculators for color, bitterness, alcohol but is there a holistic taste calculator? Specifically, contribution of malt, roast of malt, and late hops. It would be nice for BeerSmith or other to give you a sense of how malty, roasty, hoppy your beer will be.

Taste is incredibly subjective.

Experience, taking good notes and being consistent will make you a human calculator for that in time (based on your taste perception). I'm not sure a computer could do that, as RPh_Guy says, taste is incredibly subjective.

The closest thing I can think of to this is water software estimating the hopiness and maltiness of the beer bases on sulfate:chloride ratios.
