I want to make an IBU calculator for predicting the bitterness (yes, bitterness is good) of my beers. There are plenty of quick tips in the brewing books out there, but I don’t want to have to open a book. And I want to learn to use php to do it.
I found this java applet that accomplishes the same thing. I could use it and give up this dream, but what fun would that be? We’ll see if I ever get around to it.
Word from Scott is that the wort has reached high krausen. Excellent.
I’ve created an IBU Calculator that works great, and is quite accurate.
