Calculate EBC



Formula

To calculate the EBC:

\[ \text{EBC} = 25 \times D \times A_{430} \]

What is EBC?

The EBC (European Brewery Convention) color is a measure of the color of a beer or wort. It is calculated by multiplying the dilution factor by 25, then multiplying by the light absorbance at a 430 nanometers wavelength.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ \text{EBC} = 25 \times 2 \times 0.5 = 25 \]

The EBC is 25.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ \text{EBC} = 25 \times 1.5 \times 0.8 = 30 \]

The EBC is 30.
