FAQ
Questions Hops Drying Optimizer owners ask.
- 01
How does this capability help with alpha acid retention?
By using estimate_quality_retention, the capability predicts how much alpha acid is preserved based on the specific temperature profile used, helping to prevent thermal degradation.
- 02
Can I compare different types of dryers?
Yes, the simulate_drying_efficiency capability allows you to compare the cost and quality outcomes of different dryer types, such as belt, kiln, or whole-plant dryers.
- 03
What inputs are required for the drying profile?
To use get_drying_profile, you need to provide the initial moisture content, the target moisture, the total mass of hops in kilograms, and the type of dryer being used.
