Was trying to calculate my IBU on Brewers Friend for a 1 gallon Amber Ale. It said my Ibus was 101...well huh. Seemed a bit high. Would appreciate some input/analysis:
OG was 1.050
Boil size was 1.5 gallons
Batch size was 1 gallon
Hops type was Mt Hood pellets, 5.6%.
Hops additions were .66 of an ounce for 60 minutes and .33 on an ounce for 15 minutes.
 
sounds about right, that will be one bitter beer

try .25 for 60 and .1 for 15
