I tend to brew AG 95% oc the time.
I have been unsble,due to back problems,to brew for about four months. So decided that I would try a few things all at once.
I will be brewing a 17 litre berliner weisse-ish beer with a total of 1.8kg of dme.
I will be boiling 7 litres with 5gr of Nelson for 15 minutes.
Problem: when I calculate the IBUs using the full boil I get 4IBUs.
But when I calculate it with the 7 litre boil(I cannot lift more than that and will have no help) I get about 2 IBUs.
So, do I need to add 10gr of Nelson cones to get my 4-5 IBUs from the partial boil?
Cheers
