    Re: slow loading

    It takes for ever to load a page why? I didn't have this trouble in the past.

    Can you explain what you see wrong with it? Screen shot will help.

    Thanks

    stone, have you recently changed to a different s/w or upgrade? And we've not been changing things, so is is still happening now?

    You may also want to clear cookies and cache and reboot. Then see how it runs.

    this field doesn't change when building a new recipe, it goes below but not above, if you pull in a recipe it seems to be fine

    Still, import a recipe works, but create a new one get stuck at OG 1.300...as mentioned in the previous posts. Haven't you fixed the bug yet ? I think the bug has something to do with the "strict mode" option and the "switch grain mode" button. When I created a new recipe (with strict mode off), the OG first got stuck at 1.300 as mentioned. After I clicked the button "switch grain mode", and I delete the value in the OG box, then the software did recalculate the OG and IBU, though not correct, and the weights of the fermentables are changed automatically in non-sense (I inputted 4 kg pale ale malt, 0.4 kg cara30L, 12 batch size, but got an OG 1.050)...however, at least it is not stuck at 1.300 anymore. Hope it helps you to fix the bug!

    I was really happy yesterday when I came across this site and particularly this app. Regretfully 8 months after release the bugs still haven' been addressed. That's sad.

    Yes, as it only seems to be only a mathematical error within the code.

    Hey everyone - thanks for all your patience and for bringing the bug to our attention. We just pushed out an update with a fix for the original gravity calculation error. You can download a new version of the app here: http://www.brewersfriend.com/windows/ -- should take care of the issue.

    Thanks again for all your support. Happy brewing!
    - Matt
