BeerSmith 2 – Build 38

BeerSmith 2 build 38 is designed as a patch to correct a number of critical bugs found in the initial release of BeerSmith 2.  It is currently a BETA release for testing purposes, and not yet a final build.

I wanted to make this available publicly for those having any of the problems listed below.  If you find issues with this build specifically regarding one of the fixes below, please use the contact-us page.  Otherwise post your problems to the discussion forum.

NOTE: I will be at the AHA conference from 15-20 June, so I may not be able to reply until I return.  I hope to release these fixes in final form after I return.

Build 38 Corrects the following problems:

  • Corrected calories display for metric units – now displays “calories per liter”

  • Added field for hopped liquid extract bitterness (measured in IBU-Gal/lb) to grains/extract editor
  • Disabled end temps on fermentation editor if not used for currently set number of stages
  • Widened “Notes” field for notes – creating additional space
  • Changed title on brew steps/bottling ingredients to include the dry hop steps
