Please review this thread.  I duplicated the original poster's finding that the IBU calcs differ between the recipe function and the hop bitterness tool. 

Visually, I suspect the tool more likely to be off.  When I switched both to Tinseth, the 45-min IBU was actually higher than the 60-min IBU, and all three varied from the recipe. 

Thanks.
