hopville . the free online community for homebrewers
So far I haven't found anything thatbeats this for recipe calculation. Thought I should mention it because it doesn't seem to be well known on HBT. It has a very clean interface with quick references to BJCP guidlines as you build a brew (warns you if OG/IBU,etc is out of the norm).
I demo'd Beersmith and BeerToolsPro and found both to be anything but intuitive. In fact after having used hopville I found them downright infuriating. Hopville lacks most of the advanced features, but personally I haven't really needed them. Between hopville and online mash calculators (for volumes and temps) and I haven't needed anything else.
Highly recommended for anyone that isn't currently using software (or even if you are). You can't beat the price (free).:rockin:
