Great app

Fantastic and Robust

A really great app that helps you to create your own great beer recipes and helps out on brew day keeping everything straight. Very intuitive design and easy to use. Only thing I wish it did was give you the options to print your recipe or post it online to a social media outlet. You can link to their website but their website is a paid user subscription based page.

Excellent brewing app

This is my go to app for doing homebrew recipes and planning brew sessions. I recommend this app to all of my homebrewer friends. Highly recommended

Excellent app ~ does what I need it to do.

Needs a beeper

The app is great but it needs to have alarm sounds for the timers.

Weak UI; cost is BS

The fact that this wont sync unless you shell out an additional $15 per year is a rip off. Additionally, the UI is at least 4 generations old. This is a glorified WebKit app for $5. Its not worth it, just use your free account and a laptop. I like the features of this app, but it shouldnt cost over $1.99. I would not have bought it had I known.

GREAT FLICKING APP!

SG calcs are pretty good. I love the ability to calc IBU for your recipe. And it will tell you how close your recipe specs match against styles along with estimated alcohol levels. The cost is negligible compared to brewing a 5 gal batch of beer.
