![]() ![]() Plug this into the 'total whirlpool time' and then click on the box to 'estimate boil hop util in whirlpool'. You will need to know approximately how much time it takes your wort to cool down to below 160F (71C) to give the program some idea of how much additional isomerization time you will realize from the hot wort. In your equipment profile, look at the section labeled 'hop utilization and whirlpool options'. The method is not perfect, but it will give you an idea of how much additional hop bitterness you will realize following flame out. Oh and by the way, I am using a GUTEN 40LīeerSmith has an option in the equipment profile which allows for the continued isomerization of hop alpha acids during an extended cooling period. Sorry for all the questions, been winging my all grain brews to date (made pretty good products) but I now want to improve! How do you set the temperature? As obviously the temperature will fall from 100C to 85C at some rate (which I am unsure of), should I get a rough estimate of this and work out the average temperature to put in "Whirlpool Temp" box? Would I account for the additional IBU's from the 0 minute additions using the "hopstand/whirlpool" functionality in BeerSmith. Then let wort cool to 85c before decanting in the cube. Does anyone have a rule of thumb they use here?Īnother thing I am considering is not do the "shift hops out by 20 and cube hop method" but just work out the hop additions based on the desired IBUs. I know I want to cube hop, I know this will add to bitterness, but I don't know how to account for this in the software. ![]() However, this is not very scientific and I really want to improve my brewing! So now, I am working on a recipe, and using BeerSmith 3. It turned out fine by my standards but probably a little on the bitter side. For example, I have done a Sierra Nevada Pale Ale Clone - following this recipe:īut shifted the hop additions out by 20 and the 10 minute and zero minute additions went straight into the cube. I am aiming for an American Pale Ale style beer, previously I have had success by shifting out my additions by 20 minutes and "cube hopping" anything that falls in beyond the 20 minute mark. I'm new to using BeerSmith, and am struggling to figure out how to adjust the hop schedules for the no chill method. Apologies if this has been covered, I did a quick search but couldn't find the answer. ![]()
