Optional ReadonlyaddedThe day it went into the blend, or null if the blender didn't say.
ReadonlyamountAmount by weight, grams. null is "not decided yet".
ReadonlykindTells the additions apart.
ReadonlynameThe hop, usually a variety name.
Hops added to finished beer. It has a variety and a weight but isn't used in any calculation.
It has the same shape as the flavour row, but it's a separate kind because it's a different ingredient. The name is usually a hop variety but is free text, since hops off a neighbour's fence have no variety.
There's no bitterness, and that's correct, not an approximation. Every model in
ibu.tsreturns zero for a hop that never went in the kettle, and a blend is finished beer, so there's no isomerisation to model. That's why the row has no alpha acid: nothing would read it, and the addition union exists so rows don't carry fields the maths ignores.It doesn't take away any beer either. Hops do absorb liquid (the equipment profile's
dryHopAbsorptionMlPerGis 6 mL/g, so 100 g in a 20 L blend is most of a bottle), but no addition changes the blend's volume or bottle count, and we don't make hops an exception. The weight is recorded so the blender knows what they used; the beer lost to the hops is left for them to account for.
