So well I haven't been keeping a "formal log" so I figure I'm going to create a post with everything I'm doing from here out.
Sundays brew will be 10 gallons of Nut Brown.

Will create a separate post for each brew day. May have to edit a few times.

Aug 24, 2014 - Nut Brown (10 Gallon batch)

Why don't you just get off your wallet and pay $25 for beersmith, that keeps track of everything for you and saves us room on the server for important beer stuff :lol:

Our house PC is hooked up to our TV. I can hardly ever get on it for any extended period of time, and BB doesn't have a beer smith app. However with that being said, I never knew it tracked your brew history. :cheers2:

Blackberry doesnt, but andriod does, so if you are running a new blackberry you can sideload a lot of andriod apps.

Beersmith for Android runs just fine on a Q10, so have to expect it will run on the Z10

I have Snap installed so it's sideloaded from the Google play store.

The lite app doesn't let you edit recipes. You'll probably want the full one.

The hardest part of switching over to my Chromebook was not being able to use Beersmith. I use the Mobile app on my Galaxy S3 but it's not the same :(

I tried dual booting my Chromebook with Ubuntu (Crouton) in order to install and run Beersmith in as some claim to have done, but I can't find a working source code for the program...

Looks like I'll be getting a upgrade on my phone from the Z10 to an Samsung Galaxy S5 :cheers2:
I'll fire Beersmith on that. :banana:

Did they change company policy nationwide to accommodate your brewing requirements? :)

Nope. We support just about every platform, and my boss was nice enough to get us all new phones :) :cheers2:
