I am seeing a lot of disparity in IBU calculations within BeerSmith. I am assuming user error but cannot seem to figure out what I need to change. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
I was unsure of what to enter for SG in Hop Bitterness Tool so I entered the Est Pre-boil, but even when I change it to the Est OG it still is nowhere close to the recipe page calculation - as you can imagine the Tool numbers go down as the SG increases.
Thanks!
The recipe page calculates 57.5 IBUs and the Hop Bitterness Tool calculations are: Rager = 41.1, Tinseth = 40, Garetz = 22.
