One of the most limiting factors for most homebrewers is the cost of their tools.Īlthough not all of these software packages are exactly apples to apples, the difference in cost between them might be a “make it or break it” factor for you.īelow are the prices associated with each piece of software reviewed. Some of the packages are subscription based, and in that case, the monthly or yearly price is listed. It might not be a fair comparison when looking at the user base of certain products. In some cases, the user base might not be public information. Also, when trying to analyse social media and forums, it should be noted that this is just an attempt to show the representation of the active users. I looked at Facebook pages, Twitter accounts, and forums to get an idea of the user base for each home brewing software. Though social media and forum activity do not necessarily portray exact numbers of user base, I think they do paint a pretty good picture as to how many people are talking about the software and using it. Lastly, I would like to give a brief description of each package. I have not used every package listed here, but reading reviews and browsing through free trials I have come up with the following. Brewtargetīrewtarget is an open-source software with a great set of tools. It gives you a lot of control when it comes to designing your recipe. The software automatically calculates the color, bitterness, gravity, and ABV. It does priming calculations, OG corrections, pitch rates, refractometer calculations, brew day timers, and much more. Beersmith 2īeerSmith is by far one of the most used pieces of software in the homebrewing community. Its tool set is very robust and once it is set up for your brewing style and equipment, its calculations are very accurate. It was very hard not to compare all of the other options to BeerSmith as it is what I use every brew day.
