Daniels' fit: SRM = 0.2 × MCU + 8.4.
SRM = 0.2 × MCU + 8.4
From Ray Daniels, Designing Great Beers. It's a straight line regressed over roughly MCU 7–50, and it's wrong for pale beers because it can't return less than 8.4 SRM. We clamp to Morey below the crossover so a pale lager doesn't come out amber.
