We directly want to enter the base density of our products, w/o having to enter a test temperature. Is this possible?

Yes.
All BCP MQCI conversion groups can be configured in such a manner.

Example: BCP Template Conversion Group Q2A1:

Here you only enter the observed product temperature and the base density  as input parameters. Then, the VCF and all densities in air values are calculated, as well as all quantity values.

Technically, this is achieved by adding MQCI Function Module

/QTYW/MQCI_BCP_PROD_DEFAULT with FMTYP 9  or 
/QTYW/MQCI_BCP_CHEM_DEFAULT with FMTYP 9 (for linear DCF conversion groups)

to the Function Module Sequence (FSQ) in the configuration settings:

Then you simply remove the test temperature parameter from the reading group, that is assigned to the conversion group. You  rename the test density to base density / base API gravity … as required.

This is also described in the BCP Reference Manual, Chapter 6.10.
