🏺Σ 🏺 Sum of a Batch!

INSTRUCTIONS:

• You can use this to figure the effects of blending various amounts of various liquids, and optionally then also fermenting the resulting mixture.  For instance:
  • Making a mead must, and fermenting it
  • Blending two batches of mead together
  • Diluting, fortifying, or sweetening mead
• Enter how much you want to use, of your first liquid:
  • Enter a number in the left box under Quantity
  • Use the other box to select a unit of measure (which defaults to liters)
• Use the Liquid dropdown in Row 1 to select a liquid:
  • If your desired liquid is not listed (such as “mead”), use “other”
  • If the SG or %ABV are not quite right (or blank), you can edit them
  • Any SG or %ABV left blank is taken as zero
• Repeat the steps above for Row 2
• If you need more rows, press the “Add Row” button
• After you’ve entered all your liquids, you can:
  • Click “Blend” to see what it would be like to blend them together, or
  • Enter a yeast tolerance and click “Ferment” to see that and what would be the results of fermenting that mixture, with a yeast of that tolerance

FUTURE PLANS:

• output in largest volume unit actually used, or make it selectable
• add mass/weight units (kilos, grams, pounds, oz av, etc.) and calculate the volume
• add way to designate a desired total volume, and a row as what to adjust to “make it so”
• make it run backwards, i.e., enter a desired total volume, FG, and ABV, and get an amount of honey, an amount of water, and a yeast tolerance
• add parsing of query params, so we can save a recipe as a URL
• eliminate all non-metric units, screw the places using stupid units :-)
• add warning that if the honey (if any) is below 50% of the sugars it’s not mead :-)
