Posted 16/5/11 Question for the Mac users out there and for the Beer smith users, My Beer Alchemy Demo has just run out and I'm considering buying it but just found out that Beersmith is i BETA for Mac. What are other Mac user using? Suggestions, Beer Alchemy apparently comes with 3 licenses for the price of one, has anyone brought it? For the PC Beersmith users? Is it worth me waiting for?

Currently im just knocking out recipes from Brewing Classic Styles so between that and the measurements ive taken from previous AG brews i could still make beer without it for the mean time. Cant run any kind of Virtual Pc on my Mac as im running a 733mhz turd (love the old girl though) and getting on AHB while it's running anything else can be a struggle.

Posted 16/5/11 Beersmith is very good. Don't know if the upgrade is going to be decent or not, however there's a lot of people getting excited about it though. I use lots of different software at the moment. I am on a windows machine, but i have used: Beersmith: Excellent software. Does pretty much everything you could ever need. If you can't brew decent beer with this, you should find a new hobby.

BrewTarget: Don't know. Not sure if it's available for Mac OS. Didn't muck around with it for very long.

Moved on to: Brewmate: Brilliant piece of work by a fellow AHB member. It's free, does most of the stuff you need without the extra weight.

I couldn't make much sense of the program without it, but now i know how it works, it works very, very well. Brewmate is fantastic, doesn't bog you down with heaps of crap, just shows you the recipe for making great beer and works out all processes automatically for you. It's free too! Currently i'm working with both Brewmate and Beertools Pro, and i love each for different reasons. The other one that a lot of people use is ProMash, but i've never used it so can't comment. Have used Beeralchemy on my iPhone, but as i don't own a Mac, don't know how it relates to a computer version.

Posted 16/5/11 I've used Beer Alchemy for a year and a half now, and aside from simple spreadsheets, it's the only brewing software I've used. It does some things well, but it also has its bad points. It's missing some features that I would have thought would be pretty standard (such as being able to calculate pre-boil SG corrections), the interface is lacking a bit in terms of intuition, and there's some down-right usability issues (things like hitting 'Esc' and not prompting to save data comes to mind, which means having to re-enter stuff). The fact that you can only see one view at a time (as far as I can tell) is also limiting. I've heard quite a bit about Beersmith, and I'm looking forward to giving it a go when it comes out. Although I'm sure there will be a bit of a relearning curve, I won't be surprised if I end up taking to Beersmith over Beer Alchemy in the end.

I just hope I'll be able to import my Beer Achemy data somehow. Cheers, tallie. Posted 17/5/11 I use Beer Alchemy on my Mac. I Initially tried a few other programs on my PC but didn't like them as much (I didn't really know what I was doing and plan at some point to have another look at them).

Beer Alchemy isn't perfect, for example I've found that it's a bit short on the ingredients list but you can add additional ingredients fairly simply. The other thing I like about it is that it has an iphone app. I brew in a backyard shed and I have my phone on me anyway so I don't have to take my computer to the shed - I just use my iphone. Posted 17/5/11 I use Beer Alchemy. I love being able to sync it with your Iphone.

Very handy to keep track of what ingredients you have at home and all your recipes at your finger tips. When you are at your LHBS and not sure what you need to buy, you can just check your phone to see what you have in stock.

Never had a problem with the program and you can email the developer to ask questions. I did download a trial version of Beersmith and loaded it using Crossover 8. It looked like a typical windows based program:iconvomit:. I haven't had much time to play around with it yet. I'm sure whatever program you end up buying will be fine once you get used to it.

Posted 17/5/11 I've used BeerAlchemy for the last year and it's been more than adequate. It's got some features that could be improved, but it is undergoing a major upgrade if you read the programmer's blog with the new version due soon. As it stands, it has good usability, but needs some additional calcs, a few more settings, and less generic ingredients. I'm waiting for the upgrade (free to current users) before I pass too harsh a judgement. Was looking at Brewtarget, and whilst I need to upgrade drivers before I can run it, it seems to do everything BA does, and it's open source which is really appealing.

All the previous open source offerings I've seen have been very limited in comparison. Can't speak for how intuitive the UI is.
