Re: Beersmith Mobile
I use it and love it. I dont' formulate recipes on it, but reference it when weighing out grains, hops and water additions, and also use it for brew day timers.

Re: Beersmith Mobile
Ok here's my question then. I do use it to formulate some recipes. When you get to the timer section it gives you strike water volume and it's always about 0.5-0.8 gallons too much. For example it tells me that for 16 lbs of grain at 1.25 qt/lbs to use 5.8 G of strike water rather than the 5 G that it should be. If you go into the mash profile and then click on mash steps it will actually say in there to use 5 G. It's fucking me up.

Re: Beersmith Mobile
Maybe it has some setting for dead space in the mash tun? I have had issues with that in beersmith before.

Re: Beersmith Mobile
Fucker. Yeah the dead space was set to 0.8 G. Not actually sure what my dead space is but my volumes were always higher by about 0.5 G than predicted on pre-boil volume.

Re: Beersmith Mobile
What's the difference between the full and lite versions for mobile? Any pro's con's for each?
"Twenty years ago — a time, by the way, that hops such as Simcoe and Citra were already being developed, but weren’t about to find immediate popularity — there wasn’t a brewer on earth who would have gone to the annual Hop Growers of American convention and said, “I’m going to have a beer that we make 4,000 barrels of, one time a year. It flies off the shelf at damn near $20 a six-pack, and you know what it smells like? It smells like your cat ate your weed and then pissed in the Christmas tree.” - Bell’s Brewery Director of Operations John Mallet on the scent of their popular Hopslam.

The lite version doesn't allow you to do any editing I don't believe.LiverDance wrote:What's the difference between the full and lite versions for mobile? Any pro's con's for each?

Re: Beersmith Mobile
its a separate purchase. i have designed recipes on the mobile app personally i dont like it i design on my laptop and use the mobile for brew day use it to make changes to the recipe, make notes, etc. the greatest thing i like about it is the timers. i think the price difference between the lite and full version is about $5. well worth it if you ask me even though i dont use much more than the timers, but gives you the option if you ever need it

Re: Beersmith Mobile
So it saves your notes and records the measurement you take for FG, volumes, etc to the cloud?
