    Beer Smith or Beer Friend??

    Well, clearly I am in the minority here, but I use Brewer's Friend and I love it. I've found it to be really accurate for me, and I get predictable and repeatable results (it always kind of blows my mind how correct it is).

    Alesmith IPA clone

    I'm going to be brewing this recipe next weekend, but I have a couple questions. Hoping someone who has brewed this can chime in.
