Re: Brewing Software: any recommendations?

Buying software is like buying underwear - sort of personal and it has to 
'fit' to be comfortable.



I purchased BeerSmith and it is really great for me.  The UI is intuitive 
and it helped my do both extract and partial mash recipes plus offer 
conversion assistance between the various methods.



It is technically sound and questions get answered by the developer
quickly. 
Aside from a minor complaint about file backup I give it 5 stars.
