?? Fermentation creates CO2. Sugar is being fermented in the bottle. not sure I understand your point here?

You're right - sugar is heaps easier and well understood. And yes, part of the attraction is making a beer all from malt and hops and yeast and water,, but I've never been precious about that. I wonder though how a gyle primed beer vs a sugar one may be different, so I want to try it. If the...

yep. drink beer, then think beer, then try math. bad combo. essentially, gyle priming. BF calc gets a different result to me, though i thought i used the same method (there are article links on the BF calc) so wondering where i went wrong. Or if I did. Haven't tried it yet, but the lure of just...

no, not always the same. from the recipe you go to your water screen, adjust to the profile you want, then hit a button and the required additions are added to your recipe sheet - which i then print and use for brew day

G'day, I've been trying to create a spreadsheet to replicate the Gyle Calc - just for fun and to better understand the functions involved. I've got it pretty close, but it returns a different enough result to your calc that I thought I'd ask ... So... I take the wort OG and FG and convert...

This is a great feature request - once we've tweaked our salts, it should be a simple click to transfer it the recipe sheet. It's linked, so shouldn't be tricky? Would make the process easier - it actually stops me from wanting to tweak water because i have to write everything down by hand...

It occurs to me that you'd only ever calculate a 100% efficiency on adjuncts, or DME / LME. It's never an option for grain - so why not have a separate option for custom DME etc, which is always calculated at 100%, then a custom grains options which is calculated based on your recipe (ie the...

Ahhh! Cheers Josh, looks like we have a solution. Not intuitive though (but makes sense in how you're having to approach it), so maybe a note about this on the adding custom fermentables inventory page is a good idea. Thanks again - and just in time :)

Hey, I'm sure I'm not the only one seeing this problem - has the BF team been able to replicate? Can someone else give it a try to see? Would be nice to see this bug solved.

Any progress on this issue? cheers, Rhys

Hey, I'm having the exact same issue: my custom malt has same PPG as American Ale 2 Row, but switching between the two shows a massive difference in calculated gravity (1.071 (custom) vs 1.053 (AA) Is this a recurring issue, or unfixed since last year when reported on this thread? Loving BF...

Ahhhhh, I knew it had to have been there. Cheers!

It would be great to be able to quickly scale a recipe size to whatever batch size I'd prefer - I'm into doing small batches more often these days. Also, the ability to convert someone else's recipe to metric or imperial as the case may be would be useful. Great site!
