Hello Folks,
I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem. I use Tinseth for my IBU calculator, but I will often check what the comparable IBU's are with the Rager formula if I am converting a recipe. As tinseth is calculated for whole cones there is a 10% utilization appiled when using pellets. Now I have this selected under my options and I can see the 10% difference when I use the Hop Bitterness calculator, but that 10% difference is not reflected in my actual recipe.
To make it plain the recipe page always calculates hop bitterness as 10% less than the calculator which is the correct number. As the calculator value and the recipe value should be the same does anyone have any ideas about this? I have only noticed it with Tinseth but I'd appreciate any advice.
Thanks in advance for the help!
