I need someone to explain IN SIMPLE TERMS, why I need Beersmith (or a similar tool). I don't doubt that I do, but I am just not sure what all I will get out of it. I have very slow download speed and don't want to download it just for the free trial. I use an aircard for internet access and have to watch my usage. I don't mind buying it if I need it, but do I need it?
I am fairly new to AG and keep seeing that Beersmith is needed and a good investment. Is it a program that helps build recipes? Presently I just ask my LHBS guy for a reccomended recipe and he prints me one out, without me knowing exactly what to compare it to. Hopefully it will help me out in that regard.
Also, does HBT have a glossary of terms in one of the dropdown menus that I am not seeing? I read a post and find myself having to google the term to see exactly what it means and how it applies in the context it was used. I am referring to terms like HERMS and RIMS and decotation etc. This would sure make it easier on us AG new guys. Thanks for any and all replies in advance.
