How this calculator works
Beer color can be described as SRM, EBC or degrees Lovibond depending on the recipe source and maltster.
The converter translates the entered color scale to the other two scales and updates the glass swatch.
Very dark beers quickly become visually similar in a small swatch even when the numeric color keeps increasing.
Worth knowing
- Use this when translating a recipe or ingredient sheet from another region.
- For a full batch color estimate, build the recipe in Brewfather so the complete grain bill and recipe size are considered.
