FAQ

Questions Hops Bitterness Calculator owners ask.

  • 01

    How do I calculate the total bitterness of my recipe?

    You can use the calculate_total_recipe_bitterness capability. Provide an array of your hop additions and the final wort gravity to get the total IBU and the BU:GU ratio.

  • 02

    Does dry hopping contribute to IBU?

    No, dry hopping additions contribute zero IBU as they are added after fermentation and do not undergo the isomerization process.

  • 03

    Which utilization models are supported?

    The server supports the Tinseth, Rager, and Daniels utilization models to accommodate different brewing styles and wort gravities.
