Create multiple db entries based on a variable in Ember - ember.js

Question

I'm a new to Ember and am having a really hard time with this problem. I'm building an app that manages beer tap lists. Each bar has a different number of taps.
I take the number of taps in the new bar signup = orgTap
On the first login to the dashboard I want to have an empty line for each tap and a db entry created to correspond to each tap.
The code I have is:
export default Ember.Route.extend({
model(params) {
return this.get('store').findRecord('bis', params.bis_id);
},
actions: {
generateTapList(orgTap, id){
var store = this.store;
let tapOwner = this.get('store').peekRecord('bis', id);
const taps = this.get('orgTap');
let i = orgTap;
const newTap = store.createRecord('taplist', {
bis: tapOwner,
{{HOW DO I LOOP???}}
tap: "Tap" + i,
i = i - 1;
{{/HOW DO I LOOP???}}
});
newTap.save();
},
}
});
I have installed ember-truth-helpers thinking it may help with the loop.
Side Question -- Am I stupid for trying to learn Ember for my first app after a full stack dev class?? I feel that everything I just learned is irrelevant to how Ember works.
Solution:
generateTapList(orgTap, id){
var store = this.store;
let tapOwner = this.get('store').peekRecord('bis', id);
var tablistProps = {};
var i = 0;
tablistProps['bis'] = tapOwner;
while (i < orgTap){
i++;
tablistProps = {tap: "tap" + i, tapBeer: ""};
const newTap = store.createRecord('taplist', tablistProps)
newTap.save();
}
},
