Another Beer Smith question

Postby beernut » Mon Oct 19, 2009 1:00 am

I just bought a few pounds of leaf hops and went to add them to my inventory on Beer Smith. I already had some of the same hops (in pellet form) on there. When I switch the style over to leaf and add the amount it changes my pellet inventory to that amount and wont add the leaf amount. In a nut shell, it won't allow me to have both leaf and pellet of the same hop with different amounts in inventory. Any ideas?

Typically leaf hops get 10% less utilization than pellet hops, so if it's still being difficult, I'd just put it in as pellet and adjust the weight accordingly. There's an additional 10% drop in utilization if those whole hops are going to be in a hop bag as well.
