What software are Y'all using these days?

Post by Keggermeister » Sun Jan 19, 2014 10:29 am

I am looking to ditch StrangeBrew as it is pretty dated. What are you guys using these days?

Anyone have a copy I can try?

Same here

Beersmith also has the mobile version which will integrate with the computer based version via a cloud network.

Beersmith - and Beersmith Mobile. Desktop version is a lot more robust. Mobile is good for brew day timers and such.

I have been using Promash for almost 9 years now and see no reason to switch to anything else.

Beersmith since day one. Has a free trial.
At Alexander Keith's we follow the recipes first developed by the great brewmaster to the absolute letter. :wtf:

Beersmith, takes some time to dial it in to fit your rig, but after that it is awesome.

I thought Drew updated it a little while back? I think Doug Edey either was helping him with it or had taken over the updates.

I've used Beersmith right from the start as well. Probably the best $30 I've spent on brewing yet.

I bought into BeerAlchemy before BeerSmith was available on the Mac. Have gotten along pretty well with it so haven't bothered switching.
