We're Proud to Announce the OpenBrews Alpha!

The OpenBrews Alpha is now available on Android. To install the Alpha, first edit the security settings of your Android device to allow the installation of apps from unknown sources.

We are currently trying to resolve issues with 64 bit builds and hope to have that ready soon.

What is OpenBrews?

OpenBrews is a free and open source application for building beer recipes. Alternative applications are dated, clunky, extremely limited, or commerical. OpenBrews leverages modern technologies and the open source community to give it a competitive edge. Our goal is to make an intuitive, cross-platform app that everyone can take advantage of at no cost whatsoever. OpenBrews is currently being developed for iOS and Android.

Recipe List

OpenBrews has a recipe list stored directly on your device. You don't have to pay for any silly cloud storage fees, and you'll always have your recipes even if you don't have an internet connection. This is the central hub of the application.

Local Storage

All of your recipes and their data will be stored locally on your device. This helps us keep the app free, and helps you to always retain access to your data.

Add and Edit Your Recipes

You can easily modify ingredients in your recipe and create new recipes on your phone. Add as many ingredients as you want, we don't care! Add fermentables, hops, other adjuncts, and notes! Key values like OG, FG, ABV, IBU, and SRM will be calculated as you modify your recipe.

Smart Text Fields

The smart text fields we're building will help you easily find what you're looking for. Whether it be a specific style of beer, or ingredients for your brew.

Viewing your Recipe

Viewing everything you need to know to brew has never been so easy. In one screen you can see all of your ingredients, instructions, and notes. Now you don't have to click buttons while at work.
