Product Description:

Homebrew Formulator is an application for creating and managing beer recipes. It is a Filemaker runtime application, so it has a powerful database driving its capabilities. It is especially useful for advanced brewing techniques, such as all-grain brewing and the use of step infusions or decoction mashes.

It was developed by us to meet our personal needs, but we have decided to make it available to the public free of charge. Of course, you can always send us some beer or donations if you would like.

Some features of the Homebrew Formulator include:
  • Creation of full mash, partial mash, and extract beer recipes
  • Beer list sortable by recipe name, beer style, or date brewed
  • Beer styles from the most current BJCP Style Guidelines
  • Mash calculator for creating custom infusion, step, or decoction mashes
  • Management of custom brewing environments
  • Management of ingredients (separate databases for hops, fermentables, yeasts and additions)
  • Provides convenient table of your recipe specifics versus the target beer style
  • Brewing water calculator for making water adjustments to match published water profiles
  • Carbonation calculators for accurately matching carbonation to style
  • Yeast repitch calculator for determing yeast volume for optimal fermentation
  • Actuals can be recorded along with comments for each batch to serve as a brewer's notebook
  • Hydrometer correction calculator
  • Summary page for recipe printout before heading off to the homebrew shop

If you downloaded the update when it first was available and you had recipes from a prior version backed up and needing to be re-imported, download the application again. I had a minor error in the import script that was not adding unmatched recipe files. Sorry about the inconvenience. (This was corrected within the first hour of the update announcement.)

Also, you will note that the field "Recipe Type" was not being honored between export/import. This was one of the fixes in this version, so now that field will be correct between upgrades.
