Hi Estaban,

First of all the Java Grib package doesn't write out Grib.  But any parameter 
can have 2 values, like your example 
about swell1 and swell2. Sample documentation is located at:

http://www.nco.ncep.noaa.gov/pmb/docs/grib2/grib2_temp4-0.shtml

23
        Type of first fixed surface (see Code table 4.5)
24
        Scale factor of first fixed surface
25-28
        Scaled value of first fixed surface
29
        Type of second fixed surfaced (see Code table 4.5)
30
        Scale factor of second fixed surface
31-34
        Scaled value of second fixed surfaces

There is a package available to write grib2, it's call wgrib2

RObb...
