Last night, I discovered the wonders that is brewersfriend.com
This is the best thing I’ve seen since a carboy washer!
I think I’m in beer nerd love. ;D

It’s what I use. I think there’s two of us now
Ive been there for just over a year now. A lot of nice features.
While I seldom use their tools, I enjoy the forums. The people who frequent them are more laid back that you find on most other forums. Just a great bunch!
I’ve tried to use it a few times since I like the idea of having my info on multiple devices, but just found it too clunky. Maybe I should give it another look.
I like their tools. Not too basic, not too complicated.
I’ve been there ever since Brewtoad moved along as they did. Seems to work just fine for everything I need.
I’ve been there for a year also, like to water volume calculator and the recipe editor is smooth, including scaling tools.
I haven’t used it before, is it free?
It is free.
Free with some limited functionality. $25/year to subscribe.
My computer crashed, so I had to use Brewers Friend and Priceless Brewing for my next batch. First one ever without BeerSmith, we’ll see how it goes.
I’ve been using Brewer’s Friend for ages, and I’m a huge fan of everything but the price. I’ve been paying it so far, but $25 a year is really steep for me even for such a quality brewing app. That’s what I’d expect to pay to own a full version of software like this outright. I could see paying $8-10 a year or even $50 for a lifetime subscription.
Aside from that gripe, it’s quality software all around. I especially love the advanced water calculator and how it can import and tie directly to a recipe.
I use it regularly and like it. $25 a year isn’t exactly a steep price and I don’t need to try and keep track of my files like in BeerSmith.
I just tried their priming calculator. Meh. I like Northern Brewer’s much, much better.
I didn’t know Northern Brewer had a priming calculator.
I’ll have to check out what else they have on there.
It’s easy for me to find when I look for “priming sugar calculator.”
They give various ways to measure it and plenty of options such as honey and brown sugar (I’ll be using brown sugar tomorrow in an Americanized dark mild).
