Im starting to experiment with recipes, making my own and altering kits, and so Ive been using an IBU online calculator but they all seem to say something different, and not just a little different. Some say 90 IBU's and another says 56 and one will say 74.
Some dont take into consideration your boil volume, for me its about 2.5 gal, and some do. The Higher BG you have the less effect the hops have and you would think that would be considered. Also since were on BG if I do a flame out addition of half my extract then how do I figure IBU's for the lower BG for the hops that I want to add into the recipe.
I thought I would compare to a kit I bought a while back but they didnt include an IBU for the kit.
Whats the most reliable online IBU Calculator.
