Today we've added a few new features that'll help brewers calculate brewing water salt additions. Introducing the Brewing Water Chemistry Calculator. Here's how it works:
-
Edit or create a new recipe
-
Near the bottom of the page click on Water Profile
-
Enter your own water profile or select from one of our generic style-based presets. This will store the profile on your recipe.
-
To use the calculator, click on click on Brew -> Water Chemistry Calculator
-
This will pull in the target water profile into the calculator
-
Enter your base water info (this can also be stored in Settings) and adjust brewing salts to match your target profile
In addition to the brewer water updates, here is a short list of fixes and updates:
-
Fix bug with small avatar for new user
-
Added user avatar in recipe tables
-
Added "Popular Styles" in the Fermentables, Hops and Yeast pages. This uses data from MIBrew recipes to pull out the most popular style a particular ingredient is used in.
-
Revamped the main calculator page. It now looks better and describes what each calculator does.
-
Cleaned up the recipe pages. If a recipe doesn't have any Notes, Other Ingredients, Fermentation Schedule, Mash Schedule, etc., the tables won't show up.
