I just noticed last night that there is a check box on the liquid malt extract page that you can check to specify that the LME was added after the boil. Since I normally do some DME and hops boil, then add LME after the boil, I thought, 'Perfect!', but when I check that, my IBUs jumped from 20 some to 50 some. What? I was doing a simple little 1 gal hop boil of 2 oz of 6.9%AA hallertau for 20 minutes. Batch size after adding more water is about 2.25 gals.
Why does the estimated IBU go wonkers if I check that box?
Thanks
