There seems to be an issue when adding hops to a recipe in the recipe builder and using grams as the unit. It looks like there's some rounding issue as incrementing the number of grams only seems to update the IBU for that addition (and the whole recipe) after a few grams rather than linearly...

I did have an item here but I discovered where I went wrong... My recipe had Hops down as Pellets.... My Inventory has the Hops as Leaf.. hence the Brew Session was , quite rightly , unable to deduct it.

Does the pressure inside keg affect the effect of dry hops?

Recipe: https://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/recipe/view/717924/new-england-ipa Calculator: https://www.brewersfriend.com/ibu-calculator/ Good evening all, So I created a recipe for a strawberry NEIPA that my friends and I will brew during Thanksgiving. The problem that I am having is...

Hello all, So I will be starting home brewing shortly and after my friend and I make a German Hefeweizen this coming week, we will tackle a strawberry NEIPA. While using BF for calculating everything, I have found an issue with my calculated IBUs. On the recipe page, it is showing it being...

I'm putting together a kit to do small batch (1.5-2 gallons) all grain BIAB. I've started to look at grain bills for recipes I would like to try, but the recipes include amounts that are only small fractions of the smallest amounts I can purchase online. I'm trying to find a local homebrew...

I already own a great digital kitchen scale that's accurate 2 grams and up... need one that's accurate 2 grams and below must be sturdy with good track record... don't want to spend more than $25 If you guys or gals have a recommendation would you please post a link -- Mark

Hi there! Just today I noticed some new odd behavior in the hop bill section of the recipe builder. Starting temp times for all additions are now defaulting to 212C, and my dry hop additions are suddenly showing a utilization of 0.070, where before they were 0. Even if I manually enter in 0% in...

I love to grow stuff, and have wanted to grow hops for a few years now, next year is the year. I just moved into my new and hopefully last house in Monument, CO, and they will start my landscaping late this week or early next. I know it is to late to get anything going this year, so I will...

how long will hop pellets last if kept sealed and frozen to still be useful?

Im preparing my hop yard, and also learning how to wash yeast, and also working on capturing wild yeast. Is it possible to capture yeast from a mix of berries and flowers? Also could we mix yeast, per example saison washed yeast with wheast beer yeast?

I'm looking for suggestions on a stout recipe I came up with. I know, I know... summer is coming. Why am I brewing a stout? I have had this itch to brew a really creamy, silky stout for a while now. I brewed one last year and it came out a little too thin for my liking. I figured I'd give it a...

Hi, I am new to Brewer's Friend (3rd brew coming this week) and have been brewing for about a year. I mostly do BIAB and my question is in regards to hop absorption rate in the equipment profile settings. I don't typically bag my hops during the boil and I siphon almost everything from my kettle...

I just finished brewing my first Saison (day 3 in primary). When I added the Saaz hops I really loved the aroma. Has anyone brewed an IPA or pale using Saaz? What other hops did you use and what for? (bittering, dry hop, etc) I'd be very interested to understand how an IPA with lower AA hops...

Hi, what's up. We run a small brewery in central-eastern Europe. We've been searching for some new varieties of american hops. We would like to import them directly from the USA, especially that some other breweries would like to join us. Eventually something like 5-10 tons of hops once a 2...

I brewed an apa with Cascade hops for bittering and dry hopping. My boys don't like the clove flavor. What can I use that would be mildly citrusy without the clove notes?

I recently used Yellow Sub hops and noticed they are not in the hops list at https://www.brewersfriend.com/hops but they do exist here https://www.brewersfriend.com/hops/yellow-sub/ What's the reason for them being in the database, but not shown in the hops list, or any of the ingredients...

Hi guys I am planning on brewing a pale ale with smoked malt and peaches (in secondary) this could be really good or taste like a fruity ashtray!! I have an idea for the grain bill (5gal batch, any comments welcome) but struggling to decide on what hops to use and when, i'm not really after a...

Just thinking... what happens if I boil water at 195 Fahrenheit, put hops on it for the time required on my recipes and then I store it for brew day, so i would add this water to the wort? What I would think will happen is that it would be the same than boiling everything on the same day, with...

Has anyone used Nugget as a dryhop? I know many people have listed hops that you should not dryhop with (Saaz and Fuggle for example) but have never found a good list of ones you should use for dryhop. Normally I stick to cascade/centennial/citra for dryhopping, but I have nugget handy, so...
