I like the new Brew Log sorting with newest entries at the top. It saves a lot of scrolling; however, I've noticed a couple of things that need fixing:

1) When adding a new log entry, the system no longer auto increments the Event Type to the next logical event. Now, the default event for a new entry is always "Mash Complete". Once the system has a Mash Complete entry, it should go to the next step, etc. Once the brew is packaged, the system should propose "Tasting Note" from that day forward. It's not hard to scroll to the correct entry, just annoying.

2) The sort order by Date (newest at top) appears to be correct. However, the little italicized comments such as "6 minutes ago" or "5 days ago" under the date/time entry are not calculating correctly in the Date column. The Date column seems to be using the Updated column for it's calculation at least when showing minutes. When entries move to Days, they appear to be correct. Not a huge deal, but not quite right.


Thanks, Eric

 

Yooper, anything new on the loss of autoincrementing of the brewing Event Types? This was a past feature that got lost in these recent upgrades. Thanks.

 

Yes, still seeing the issue. I think I traced it to the new Brew Log Default Sort Order setting.
* If sort order is this historical (Old-New), the auto incrementing seems to work properly.
* If sort order is (New-Old), which I prefer, 'Mash Complete' comes up most every time.

 

Since it appeared that only my account was impacted by this issue, I decided to create separate trial account. In this way, I was starting from ground zero without any special setting adjustments I might have made. I created a completely new simple AG recipe with a couple of grains and two hop additions.

Unfortunately for me, my results were exactly the same as with my established account:
* If sort order is this historical (Old-New), the auto incrementing seems to work properly.
* If sort order is (New-Old), which I prefer, it won't increment past Pre-Boil Gravity (Note: Initially this was stuck on Mash Complete; however, now it seems to hang on Pre-Boil Gravity. Same on both accounts.)

It doesn't matter whether I start with one brew log sort order before Brewing a recipe or if I change sort order after the brew log is already started. I even changed the recipe from Kettle to Fermentor target, but that didn't have an impact.

One thing to note is that when I am sorting the brew log New to Old, the Event Type that pops up first is Mash Complete (which is correct), and the second is Pre-Boil Gravity (again correct). The problem begins with the third and subsequent that are Pre-Boil Gravity. See below.



Again, surely I'm not the only one with this issue since I was able to duplicate it on a totally separate, new account.

Thanks, Eric

 

I appreciate the update on the fix. I see that you tested functionality on my Trickster recipe on 5/14. I'm not sure if these are related, but now the "Updated" date on the My Brew Sessions page is not picking up the true last Updated date on the individual beers Brew Log page. The same thing is happening on a couple of my other recipes.

 

Just found your response from earlier this week. I'm sorry to say it's not yet working properly on my account. I even logged out and logged back in. Still behaving the same. FYI, I'm using MS Edge on a Win 10 PC.
