You can add Citra hops to the My ingredients database. The first beer I made with BeerTools also used Citra. Go to USAHops.com for some general specs on Citra Hops (All the various acid %). I used AA 11%, BA 4%, CoH 23%, Myrc 62.5%, Hum 12%, Cary 7%, Farn 0%, Storage Good. No experimentation on what to set for the storage factor and you can set the cost to what it is in your region. These numbers were in the middle of the projected range for the 2009 crop, yours may vary.
