Fermentation Observatory Beer Universe

History, science, place, design, flavor, and brewing systems in one connected world.

Brew Lab

Ten instruments, one visual language

Accessible data / interpretation
  • SG
  • ABV
  • ATT
  • CO₂
  • SCALE
  • UNIT
  • SRM
  • IBU
  • H₂O
  • ALK

Icons identify calculators; formulas, units, assumptions, and limitations remain authoritative.

Generation D · BEU018

Brew Lab

Transparent brewing calculations with formulas, units, assumptions, validation, and result boundaries visible before convenience.

  • Educational / planning instruments
  • No account state required
  • No automatic result URLs

Boundary: These tools do not replace calibrated measurement, process engineering, package pressure ratings, regulatory testing, or jurisdiction-specific brewing requirements.

Calculators I + II

Ten instruments, one methodology rule

10 published calculator contracts expose 15 formulas. Every tool works without account state and creates zero automatic input-result routes.

gravity abv

Gravity & ABV

Estimate alcohol by volume from measured original and final specific gravity while showing both common hydrometer formulas and apparent attenuation.

2 visible formulas · account state not required · calculator input states create no indexable routes

apparent attenuation

Apparent Attenuation

Compare original and final hydrometer gravity as apparent attenuation, or rearrange the same relationship for a planning-only final-gravity estimate.

2 visible formulas · account state not required · calculator input states create no indexable routes

carbonation priming

Carbonation & Priming Estimate

Estimate residual dissolved CO₂ from temperature and a dextrose/sucrose priming mass needed to close the gap to a chosen carbonation target.

2 visible formulas · account state not required · calculator input states create no indexable routes

batch scaling

Batch Scaler

Apply a transparent linear batch-volume factor to typed mass, volume, or count quantities without pretending process behavior scales perfectly.

1 visible formula · account state not required · calculator input states create no indexable routes

unit conversion

Brewing Unit Converter

Convert common volume, mass, temperature, and gravity-point units while rejecting cross-dimension conversions.

1 visible formula · account state not required · calculator input states create no indexable routes

beer color

Beer Color Estimate

Estimate recipe color as malt color units and Morey SRM while keeping analytical color separate from literal finished-beer appearance.

2 visible formulas · account state not required · calculator input states create no indexable routes

hop bitterness

Hop Bitterness Estimate

Estimate boiled-hop IBU with the Tinseth model while explicitly separating modeled IBU from perceived bitterness.

2 visible formulas · account state not required · calculator input states create no indexable routes

water blend

Water Profile Blender

Linearly blend six reported ion concentrations from two water sources without pretending to predict mash chemistry.

1 visible formula · account state not required · calculator input states create no indexable routes

water ion ratio

Sulfate / Chloride Comparator

Compare sulfate and chloride concentrations while refusing to turn their ratio into a literal sensory prediction.

1 visible formula · account state not required · calculator input states create no indexable routes

alkalinity conversion

Bicarbonate / Alkalinity Converter

Convert bicarbonate mg/L to alkalinity as CaCO3 mg/L and back using the equivalent-weight relationship.

1 visible formula · account state not required · calculator input states create no indexable routes

Unit safety

Dimensions are checked before arithmetic

Volume, mass, temperature, gravity, and count are explicit dimensions. A request such as kilograms → liters is rejected rather than silently guessed from an assumed density.

  • Volume converts through liters.
  • Mass converts through grams.
  • Temperature converts explicitly between Celsius and Fahrenheit.
  • Specific gravity and gravity points share a defined Beer measurement representation.
  • Count never converts to mass or volume.

Route boundary

Calculator states are not content pages

Inputs, results, query strings, presets, and saved calculation states remain application state. BEU016's zero combinatorial-route budget stays intact.
