Homebrew Formulator is an application for creating and managing beer recipes.
It is a Filemaker runtime application, so it has a powerful database driving its capabilities.

It was developed by us to meet our personal needs, but we have decided to make it available to the public free of charge. Of course, you can always send us some beer or donations if you would like.

Here are some key features of "Homebrew Formulator":
Creation of full mash, partial mash, and extract beer recipes
Beer list sortable by recipe name, beer style, or date brewed
Beer styles from the most current BJCP Style Guidelines
Mash calculator for creating custom infusion, step, or decoction mashes
Management of custom brewing environments
Management of ingredients (separate databases for hops, fermentables, yeasts and additions)
Provides convenient table of your recipe specifics versus the target beer style
Brewing water calculator for making water adjustments to match published water profiles
Carbonation calculators for accurately matching carbonation to style
Yeast repitch calculator for determing yeast volume for optimal fermentation
Actuals can be recorded along with comments for each batch to serve as a brewer's notebook
Hydrometer correction calculator
Summary page for recipe printout before heading off to the homebrew shop.

What's New:
Change: Removed redundant "Brewhouse Efficiency" calculation from actuals page.
Feature: Added a calculation field to provide the boil rate in gallons/hour on the actuals page.
Bugfix: Changed units "quarts/pound" to "gallons/pound" in the brewery environment grain absorption variable.
