| As the ProMash software family grows, and with
the success of 3 Com's Palm Pilot, Sausalito Brewing Co. is pleased to
introduce the ProMashtm PilotBrewtm Brewing
Utilities.
These PilotBrew utilities are NOT full fledged recipe
formulation or brewing session applications. Instead, they represent a
collection of useful stand-alone brewing applications that compliment full
fledged brewing applications such as ProMash.. These applications
fit nice and tightly on the Palm Pilot (small footprint) and free you
from a desktop PC during brewing operations.
As an example of what might comprise a useful PilotBrew application,
consider the first such application in the series, The Hydrometer Calculator.
As it is often good brewing practice to stop all-grain runnings from the mash
tun when specific gravity (SG) reaches 1.010, brewer's often take runnings and
try to chill them down to the calibration temperature of the hydrometer
(usually 60 degrees F). As this can take time, the brewer may accidentally
allows the runnings to fall under 1.010. The Hydrometer Calculator lets you
determine SG regardless of the temperature measured at. Simple enter 3 numbers
(Calibration Temperature, Measured SG, and Current Temperature) and whala! the
correct specific gravity is determined and displayed.
These utilities will be posted as they are made, and are completely
free! No they won't expire! No they are not crippled! We
are simply giving them away for comment, feedback and the joy of sharing! Happy
Brewing!
