Sounds like maybe you ran it as a container and didn't mount the document archive externally then updated the container. That would have likely blown away the actual ingested documents but left the Metadata (including the OCR data) where it was, assuming the database was either its own container or mounted externally

I've had decent success scaling down recipes, but what I've found is that I make more consistent beers when I use a recipe designer instead of just taking 20% of the 5 gallon recipe. I'm just a beginner though. Someone more experienced could probably just eyeball it.

That's just their idle animation. Supposedly, if they desync, it's like a yo-yo until they catch back up

This is an amazing bit of advice that every home brewer needs to understand. IBU only tells part of the story, and you have to understand that there are other factors that go into perceived bitterness. Many of your darker beers have higher IBU values, but the non-fermentable sugar and the other roast flavors counter the hop bitterness. Adjuncts like lactose can also smooth out some of the sharper hop notes (again, non-fermentable sugars). I found a guide that shows ibu ranges for a bunch of styles and you can see that a lot of heavier beers are rather high in IBU even though you'd never call the style "bitter" or "hoppy"
