Boil-Off Calculator#190

I’ve been using the Grainfather recipe creator for a while now, and I’ve noticed that adjusting boil time doesn’t change the outcome of the recipe. While it does change the water requirements (sparge/mash water) in an attempt to give youthe same results, it would be much more helpful if instead it was a stand-alone variable that would change the resulting OG/FG, volume, and color. This would be incredibly helpful because it reflects boiling being a tool to transform a recipe, rather than part of a strict schedule that all other factors must align with. I think allowing brewers the option to toggle between the current system and the one I am proposing would make a great feature for the calculator and certainly facilitate recipe development for users.
