%extract instead of weight?

K

Kosmosis

I am using the free trial and am very impressed so far. The one question I have is for recipe creation, the %/IBU column in the ingredients seems to give the % by weight of the ingredient. Is there a way to change this to % of extract, i.e. taking into account the sugar contribution of the grains?

Thanks
 
Hi,
  No, we have not yet added such a feature though it is a good idea.  We could show "points" of gravity contributed by each ingredient for example.

Cheers,
Brad
 
That would be nice.  Another way to spot-check the percentage of grist/fermentables coming from crystals or other enzyme-low grains.  Two grains could each be 0.25lb, but have vastly different PPG, and thus sugar contribution.
