bulletGrain/Malt Specific Heat - The specific heat of grains/malts.  This number is used to calculate mash infusion temperatures, decoction volumes and other mash parameters.  The recommended value is 0.38  -- but some sources quote values between 0.36 and 0.40
bulletBrew Log Name - The name of the folder under the My Recipes folder that is used for storing your brew log.  Selected recipes are copied to the brew log when the Copy to Brew Log command is selected on the Actions menu.  The default name is "Brew Log" but you can customize the name to suit your preferences. 
bulletConfirm Changes Before Closing a Recipe - If a recipe is opened for editing and then closed without using the OK or Cancel buttons, this option specifies that the user should be prompted to confirm the changes before they are saved.   You will be asked to save any changes before the recipe is closed out. If this button is not checked, all changes are saved automatically when the recipe is closed.
