Wort Homebrew Calculator for Android
This app has been great for brewing, and coming up with recipes just by playing around with ingredients. The thing it lacks, if it had a timer in it that would give a running countdown for the boil, tell you add this hop in this many minutes, etc. and real time notes at each step, then it would be about perfect. Still good otherwise, but why open the timer in my phone if this had it already. If the timer was added, have it give reminders to take gravity readings. That's all
I don't like how when you scale a recipe up, then back down it doesn't keep the original data. I guess you could just create multiple versions of the same recipe for different batch sizes though. Other than that I think this app is awesome.
It's a simple app to use. It can be a little clunky sometimes like the delay in updating calculations after making a change but it's nothing to doc a star for.
Used this for my first homebrew. So far so good. It is in tbe fermenter now. This made building my own recipe so much easier. After plugging my original recipe into the app, I was able to adjust to get the desired reaults....well in theory at least, since my IPA isn't finished yet.
Fantastic app for keeping track of recipes and notes. Don't trust the sparge amount, though. It looks like it is overestimated by a little bit. One of the only two apps that I use for my brew days. Highly recommended!
My only beef is the lack of interchangeable ingredients. Wasn't really an issue for me, but less experienced home brewers may have difficulty determining which ingredient to choose from the app list, if it isn't exactly the same as the name on the package.
Love the app. Recipes and ingredients are easy to add. One glitch I've had. Not sure why the BrewTimer isn't working. Very possible I'm not inputting info somewhere.
Simple and easy to use. The upgrades does cause a bit of issue with stored recipes data, but I'm not bothered these days. Have recommended it to friends but they're on OS unfortunately.
Great for helping me calculate strike water, sparge water, etc. Also very helpful for estimating starting gravity since I make larger than 5 gallon batches.
Helpful app. I use it as a brewday notepad. It helps me solve on the fly issues that come up from time to time.
Decided to follow the calculations just to see how accurate they were since this is a free app. Found that they were dead on for my recipe! My water volumes were perfect, my final yield was perfect. I did not try the scaling since I made a 5 gallon batch. Highly recommended!
I searched for yeast calculator for propogation and this came up. Bit the rest is great!
Had some glitches. After making changes in grain bill the style values will not adjust
I have tried several beer wort apps this one is by far the best for me. Simple and accurate! Love it on brew day!!! I don't have to keep looking back over paper notes! Thanks for this great free app!
Nice brewing app. Saves can be a little finicky.
Nice app.. I wish new ingredients added to recipe also get saved in list provide.
Works well. Needs more common adjuncts, and also a place for water additions.
Instead of third times a charm, it only takes two using this app. Makes creating a recipe much easier and contains a lot of information and varieties in yeast, grain, hops, spices* etc.
Fantastic app. Helps a lot with recipe making on the fly. For me an easy way to set to metric would help. Also the timer function could be better. Thanks to dev for a great app. Cheers.
Great app. Would like to see added items remain in list. If I'm using something not in the list, I have to add every time.
Nice handy app when i want a quick answer for adding sugar for bottling and abv calculations. Havent even tried the other stuff yet
not able to remove or delete items from recipe ?
This has been a great and helpful app over the last few years. Recipe creation is fun and accurate. I highly recommend this for homebrewers.
I like how you can send your brewing friends recipes and then scale them up or down to suit your equipment
Easy to use. I like how the style guide integrates with your recipe. I hope a carb volume calculation is added in the future. Nice work by the Dev.
this app is really handy for keeping track of different recipes and collecting your brewing ideas in one place. Love it!
Great ship. It made my new day go easier. I just can't find the were I uploaded my recipes.
It is a good place to start, given it is free. I just wish it could actually save custom ingredients.
For my small scale brewing attempts it is a great help in achieving a desired result.
Great app helps with the math as well as a good sounding board to tap put a few ideas. Brew on
Great app but it would be nice to be able to pull up ingredients that you've used before.
Great app. Very straight forward with good info. Only needs a calorie calculation and it would do it all.
Everything you need for building a recipe and keeping notes on brew day.
Great app, but I can't seem to get the gravity to change when I adjust the recipe.
Meets my needs. Intuitive and easy you operate. Developer is active in updating. Great tool!
Great app, has a great deal of ingredients but wish it had more.
Does everything I need it to for brewing
Great app! very accurate for calculating my strike water volume and temp
Great tool use this app. alot

Works well, all calculations are accurate and it's user friendly. Great that you can add new yeast, grain and hops if they're not listed. Only slight down side is inability to add a different style, as although it's quite a comprehensive list there are glaring omissions such as English/British IPA
