Homebrewers Toolkit

I had high hopes. I'm a Windows Phone user and wanted to see something quality written for W8 and WP8. This isn't it. Very limited libraries; awkward and confusing mash profiles (who does 5 step mashes anymore???) and very inefficient displays (4 screens to show my ingredients? Really?) as well as incorrect volume calculations (1.4 Gallons sparge water for a 10G batch?) and very clunky ingredient inputs. Definitely TRY before you BUY. I'm incredibly disappointed.

It's ok but its not beersmith would like to see beersmith 2 offered

First off, this app has pretty much everything you need in a standard homebrew scenario. If it doesn't have the grain you are looking for you can add a custom one, etc. However, the calculations are wrong on OG especially for LME. - EDIT: I'm an idiot, it was set on imperial not US gal. Calcs are fine Also the app is terribly slow, even on a powerful desktop it isn't as snappy as it should be. I upped it to 4 stars, really think more like 3.5 because it is still really slow, and selecting hops and grains is a little clumsy. Would be better if they were portioned our like base, specialty, etc and/or had a search/type and autopop feature. It would also be nice if BJCP indication were on the brew overview instead of just on the specific addition/ingredient page. And lastly, auto syncing between devices is a must.

Well done, easy to use. Would like to see better support for extract and BIAB

This app has many good features but it lacks a full list of ingredients, like liquid malt extracts, that are common in a lot of home brewing to fully be useful and worth the money.
