Not sure why my IBU's are calculating wrong, but if you look at the topic, this definetely can't be right! Anyone know how to fix this.

IBU reading .01 when boiling cascade for 15 minutes?

Hi,
In every case I've examined it is usually due to an error in the equipment profile used with the recipe. Click on the checkbox next to the equipment profile name in the recipe and take a look at it. Common problems:
- Too much top up water resulting in a really low boil time
- Setting the recipe type to be "Extract" when it should be "All Grain"
- Setting hop utilization to something below 100% (it should be 100% for recipes smaller than 20 gallons) in the equipment profile.
If you still can't figure it out, please post a sample recipe here (use the Export Selected command to export to a BSMX file)
