Related to this other question on the different hops models, two questions:
1) Would it be possible to have the currently selected model (Tinseth, Rager, etc.) appear following one or both of these printable $tags? As discussed, there can be big differences between a Rager 52 and a Garetz 52. Sharing the hops model information would make sharing recipes more clear.
Est IBU: 52.3 IBU
(Tinseth, Rager, etc.)
Est BU:GU: 0.858
(Tinseth, Rager, etc.)
2) In the main Recipe View interface, Would it be possible to have a radio button beneath the IBUs and Style IBU and Bitterness Ratio to select the hops model? Currently, selecting the hops model is under Tools \ Options \ Bitterness \ Drop-Down \ OK, or five clicks away, and I have remember or write down the numbers if I want to compare the calulated IBUs.
Or better still, all three IBUs calculated by each model could be shown. That may confuse some people, but gradually users would see that all three numbers are just estimates of the real IBUs. The selected model under Options would be used for the other calculations.
Hops Utilization Models: Tinseth: [48] Rager: [53] Garetz: [35] |
