Not for me; still have to go to inventory to use my custom created fermentables. It is what it is and guess I'll have to get used to doing it this way from now on.
It may be that all the boxes I checked to share ingredients finally caught up...I'll have to check to see if everything on my list is coming up. Maybe I'll put in a new test item that I can track to see what's going on.Not for me; still have to go to inventory to use my custom created fermentables.

Yeah...checked to see whether all inventory items showed up as before and, no...I had gone through and toggled the contribute function on most everything so that must be what's showing up. Unless it's shared with the main fermentables list and one of the admins or coders adds it into the data base, it's still stranded.
Well, it's better than nothing, I guess. There's still hope that the Beta will go live at some point and fix some of the mess.
The things in my inventory that I set up to contribute to the fermentables show up in the fermentables drop down. And those items appear as regular fermentables without all the superfluous custom fermentables information clogging the space in the recipe calculator and sort as they're supposed to just like regular fermentables.They didn't for the longest time even though I toggled and toggled several weeks ago.John, I'm not understanding what you are saying here. You don't have the things you added? Or you do? I'm confused and want to be sure that I get the issue straight.

There are items in my inventory that don't show up in the fermentables drop-down and those are ones that I haven't toggled to contribute.
Before all this, inventory items, including custom fermentables appeared in the drop down without doing anything. I was thinking that the Beta version had gone back to this way of doing things, but it's not the case...anything that doesn't eventually find it's way into the global fermentables list with the contribute function toggled still has to be dealt with as a custom fermentable through the special inventory button on the recipe editor.
No problem. That's just the way it is now and if the contributed fermentables in my inventory are actually showing up in the drop-down, I can live with that. It just looks like it takes a long time between activating the contribute function on an inventory item and having it show up in the drop-down.
It seems workable and functional at this point.
Thanks.
Here's an example...I've got my local malts from Blacklands in my inventory (entered as Custom Fermentables). They didn't show up in the regular fermentables drop-down until quite some time after I toggled the contribute function but now they do.For me, it's working as expected (yay!) so I can't recreate what you are experiencing.
Yeah, I noticed that, too. I had given up on them actually being on the list, but then they seem to have appeared after some time had passed.Is something possibly wrong with the toggle button? I turn it on before I "Submit" but then when I go back in it is toggled off again.
Pretty much says it all...but it's still a damn shame the functionality has been shit all over.
My custom malt that I "submitted" yesterday is not on the list. I'm with J A and will just have to get used to working with it as it currently functions; but it's still a damn shame the functionality has been shit all over.
I now seem to have multiples of the same malt in the drop down. Also, the malts don't show up for inventory deduction in the brew session unless they're pulled from the inventory button, not the drop down list.
Whatever...I'm over caring about it.
I'll just expect the quirks and glitches to keep on coming and maybe it'll settle into something that I can figure out.
What appears to have happened is that there are now 2 solutions to the problem of including inventory items. In Beta I now have duplicates of items held in inventory and then those items appear below that in regular drop-down. For my own personal preferences, my inventory doesn't need to appear in the global malt list, just mine. The inventory section at the top of the list covers that (sort of like it used to be). Now that they've been contributed, can they be un-contributed?Recipe Builder - Moved inventory items to main ingredient dropdowns. Inventory items will appear at the top of the ingredient dropdown ending with the amount. You can now search for them and more easily use them in recipes.

As for the duplicate entries on some inventory items, that's a mystery. I didn't check to see whether either or both duplicates would be deducted in the brew function. I'll try to include a screen shot here...I still can never get pics from Dropbox to work.
Nope... here's a link
