SRM ( Standard Research Method)/ Lovibond:  SRM and Lovibond is mearsured on the same scale. American brewers use Lovibond to describe malts, while SRM is used to describe the color of the finished beer.                                                       

EBC (European Brewing Convention Scale):

To convert EBC to SRM: Multiple EBC by .375 and add .46  

To predict the final color of the beer. Multiply the number of pounds of the grain or malt by the Lovibond of the grain or malt used. Then divide by the total of gallons of the wort.

          Example: (14oz. crystal @ 55 lovibond plus 6 # Light DME @ 3.5 Lovibond) divided by 5 gallons.    {(14/16)(55)+(6)(3.5)}/ 5=13.8 Lovibond

The information on this website doesn't pretend to be complete, mainly because of the fluid nature of genealogical research.
Most living people have been omitted unless we have obtained their permission, or unless the information was published in a newspaper or other public document.

Information sent to us by correspondents and/or relitives has been published in good faith, and has been checked, whenever possible, for accuracy against records in goverment archives, census records, etc. However, birth, marriage and death dates written in family Bibles, baptismal certificates, letters, stories, etc., and carved in stone in family tradition, often differ from those in official records.

Please let us know of any discrepancies. The only way we can correct information is for someone to tell us in the first place. So contact us if you have further information on any families on this website. We won't publish your personal information unless you give us permission.
