Brad,
I was playing around in Beersmith and noticed that if I did a 28L boil, boiling off 7L in 90 min, then adding that 7L back as topup (this is about what happens in my system), I get the same IBU estimate as if I tell Beersmith that my evap. rate is 0%/hour and no topup. Seems like doing it the high boiloff/high topup method would give me less bitterness due to the wort being denser during the boil.
Is this accounted for somewhere?
I'm using Tinsenth.
