Ratings and Reviews
Great App with lots of potential
I’m an old school brewer and love to write my recipes and changes in my log book. I came across this app and was surprised at how well I could change over from pen and paper to electronic. It’s really nice that everything is in one place.
There are however some minor things that I would like to see fixed or addressed:
- I usually do a partial boil so instead of using 5gal initially I use 3 and then dilute down to 5 at the end. Using this option in the app gives the wrong original gravity as well as false parameters for the other values. Not a big deal but would be nice to have that option.
- I also had a hard time finding the brew day tab and only after playing with the app for a while was I able to find it.
- there should also be a place in the ingredients for yeast nutrient, finings, etc.
Overall a great app and I will continue to support it even if I am an old timer.
