I "upgraded" to Beersmith 2.0, and I'm slowly working around it but one thing I can not figure out for the life of me!

When I look at my list of recipes, I want a "preview pane" under the recipe to see what some of the ingredients are before opening the recipe. I also want to be able to copy/paste from that view, like in the older version. I get a recipe list, and click "views" but the preview pane isn't a choice. Can anybody tell this old non-computer person how to do this?

For the preview...on the recipe pane to the right there is the search box and then next to that an icon that looks like a sheet of paper, click on that you have a couple of options of where you want your preview pane.

Ah, thank you! I kept looking at the choices on the left (side-bar, etc) and never even saw that. Perfect!!!!!!!

I'm using up a sack I bought. I was going to make some Belgians, so I bought 55 pounds of Belgian pilsner malt. It turns out that I made one Belgian (still on tap) before remembering that no one I know really likes them! So, I'm using it in IPAs and it's been great. I'm down to about 3 pounds and doubt I'll buy another sack anytime soon, though!

Oh, no. Another question!

I took my preboil gravity, but I don't see a place to "put" it in the screen. In 1.4, you just clicked a button next to the efficiency box to get taken into the screen you need if you need to adjust the hopping. I can't find it!

Any help?

I believe it is in the Mash profile tab

You can chose it in the select fields on the right side below the recipe box.

If you want to adjust hopping you can select tools, hop bitterness tab and make adjustments.
