Does anyone know of any good free brewing software?

Try the free trial from Beersmith. After using it for the month that it's free, you'll gladly pay the $22 to buy it.

The Recipator is the pinnacle of free brewing software IMHO (click the link, then click spreadsheet to get started). I've been brewing for a little while now, and have dropped a fair amount of cash on this and that gizmo, but brewing software is the one thing I really can't justify buying.

The recipator does pretty much everything I would need from software when trying to come up with a recipe. For the few esoteric things it doesn't do (strike temps, etc etc), one can easily find another online calc for specific tasks/calculations.

I'll admit that Beersmith et al do have some nifty features like inventory, etc -- but I'd much rather spend $20-$30 on more ingredients/equipment and use the recipator, the net, and/or a pen & paper. Don't get me wrong, I'll be the first guy to drop the cash for Beersmith if it genuinely does something that I couldn't get for free elsewhere...but at this point I'm not seeing the justification.

This is why i waited a month before buying it, but I'm way too lazy to keep track of everything in a notebook, and I think the best part of Beersmith is that you can keep the brewlog and simply copy a recipe into it each time you do it to track changes and tweak revisions of recipes.

The calculators are really nice to have too.
