The schema defines the following types:

BoilStepType

BoilStepType - a per step representation of a boil process, can be used to support preboil steps, non-boiling pasteurization steps, boiling, whirlpool steps, and chilling.

BoilStepType is an object with these properties:

Name Required Type Description
name string  
description   string  
start_temperature   TemperatureType  
end_temperature   TemperatureType  
ramp_time   TimeType The amount of time that passes before this step begins. eg moving from a boiling step (step 1) to a whirlpool step (step 2) may take 5 minutes. Step 2 would have a ramp time of 5 minutes, hop isomerization and bitterness calculations will need to account for this accordingly.
step_time   TimeType  
start_gravity   GravityType  
end_gravity   GravityType  
start_ph   AcidityType  
end_ph   AcidityType  
chilling_type   "batch"
"inline"
Chilling type seperates batch chilling, eg immersion chillers, where the entire volume of wort is brought down in temperture as a whole, vs inline chilling where the wort is chilled while it is being drained, which can leave a significant amount of hop isomerization occuring in the boil kettle.
