    So I was wondering if an option to enter hops could be done such that the user plugs in the desired AAUs, the hop name, and its AA content, and then the tool would compute the required amount of hops to meet that desired AAU value? I would envision it as an option to either keep the current construct, or use something like what I just described.

    Thanks! Kevin

    This is somewhat related to another request to enter IBUs and have the recipe editor figure out hop quantities from there:

    Thanks for that reference Larry. I'm interested in this based on some recipes I start with specify the hops by AAUs, and as I move forward with my only scratch recipe development I'd like to be able to use this format.

    I'm a brand new user and forum member, but I already love the site!

    Thanks, Kevin
