Is there an Open Sourced Beer Brewing Application? 12
Sleepy
asks : "Are there any open source beer brewing
applications available? There are a couple of
commercial apps available for Windows, and one
for the MacOS, but I haven't found anything which
includes the source. I am teaching myself Java
programming and would love to learn on a "real"
program. I have a "healthy" interest in brewing
so this is an especially interesting app. If
there is no such thing, yet, would anyone like
to team up and write one? I'd prefer to use
Java as it's what I'm already learning, and
is fairly portable."

I haven't even mentioned the obvious feature.. of keeping everything in a database.
OTOH a paper journal WILL do this job nicely... I personally prefer a computer to sort everything out and link against recipies, etc.

The directory contains:
BrewNIX - gpl'd recipe formulator, logger, contains the source code, of course;
Extractf - an app for calculating extract efficiency;
ibu.pl - a Perl script for calculating Hop IBUs;
I use BrewNIX in creating/tweaking recipes and so far am finding it very useful. I believe the most current version is several years old, but if it isn't broken. . . It includes separate ascii data files for Hop alpha acids and malt gravity/color. Since these can be easily modified, the program can become more useful and accurate over time.
