Iphone apps for home brewing?

[D-Hutt]

Ok, just bought ibrewmaster for iPhone. I'm trying to import a beerxml file. What's the easiest way to do this?

Edit: I emailed the text to myself and copypasta - i'm guessing that's the fastest way?

One more question: are there any BiaB mash/equipment profiles planned for IBM?

Any apps to measure color in SRM? Would be great to take a pic and have the app analyze it.

Unless you had a standardized light source, it wouldn't be possible.

Beer alchemy is best so far for me - you can sync recipes on your desktop CPU without buying the desktop version - its got good brew day calculators as well

Okay so I was just going to check out brewpal and it has been removed from the app store?

He is updating it to version 2.0... but it was buggy, give him time to re-offer it.... I love the brewpal app... have used it for 2 years and think it offers the best options... I have all the iPad apps and find them all lacking. The "$15 app" doesn't even calculate sparge water without doing like a 20 step work around!!! Personally I admire the notion of removing the software because it has issues... Some other 'Brew' software developers seem to keep expensive beta offerings out there and wait for complaints.

iBrewmaster keeps getting better and better. I'm very glad I purchased this, and it is constantly being improved. I am also learning how to better utilize it too as it is a fairly complex.

It'd be nice to have a water chemistry calculator and water profiles for ibrewmaster. I make additions for almost every brew.

I've seen shopping apps that allow you to click a color in a picture and it generates what color it is. Maybe not to the technical level that SRM is... But its for color matching decor in a home (like furniture, etc.)

Beer color standards are generally measurements of light transmission, not reflection. Photographic imaging can't tell the difference between these two things. If you take two pictures of the same beer, one backlit and one frontlit, you'll get radically different representations of color. Without a standardized light source, there's really no way around this problem.

Since I've also been looking for software, I have been keeping tabs on Brew Pal. And I just noticed that Brew Pal is back in the iTunes App Store.

Go get it everyone that's been waiting.

Just read the comments for the new version... Doesn't look good...

I was worried about the same thing. Are there any decent alternatives?

 

[amellors]

It looks like the bad comments are for 2.0 which he pulled... 2.1 is the latest.
