Brewer
At the moment I am brewing with all malt extracts (dried & liquid. grain is in the pipeline).
What I find is, that Beersmith treats liquid and dry extracts the same as gains when it comes to where they are added the brewing process. >>>Boil Time
Liquid and dry extracts should be treated the same way as hops in that, with hops you can stipulate the biol time and the brew sheet reflect this. This would mean that the brew sheet would reflect for example a boil time of 40 min. for your favorite hop and a biol time of 10-15 min. for the extracts you have chosen
I know that you can do this calculation in your head, but can you imagine what would happen if an extractor picked up a brew sheet and followed the brew steps, there go the colour guide lines for that style.
On your next update could you please add this feature to the properties section of Grains, extracts & sugars so that we can have the ability to determine the length of boil for liquid and dry extracts.
