Beersmith brewing at altitude

Overwhelming evidence to stay at 0m then.

I tried a batch with the altitude set to half of Johannesburgs altitude and I still found it too bitter. I now enter 0m for altitude and beers are coming out good and I am able to adapt recipes found online to my batch size and equipment with resonable results. Keep in mind I tend to brew German lagers and blonde ales so your experience may differ when brewing more hoppy styles.

Thanks for that feedback. I think I am on that same page as my beers still feel (taste, really) more bitter than they should be. I will try a 0m in my next brew and assess from there. Or I will move to the coast so I don't have this complication.
