Hey this is seriously great. I've been using spreadsheets forever and using some pretty dodgy brew calculators over the years. One request, though, for a cider guy like myself: any chance of expanding it into wines, ciders and meads? I love the layout of the brew stats, though. Cheers.

Edit: just saw the bit abou the custom fermentables. This would make the site indispensable for me.

Hi Rev, thanks for the feedback.

I actually have the BJCP style info for meads and ciders loaded, but I've never done either so I still need to do some research to make sure the site calculates everything correctly. But it's definitely on the list of things to do... which reminds me, I need to post that list up on the blog.

I also plan to enable entering custom info for all of the ingredient types, I just wanted to start as simple as possible- but it will be something that gets added eventually!

Thanks again, rick
