Barrister Beer Batch Tracker

Ingredients → Batches → On Tap, cost locked in per batch
Every brewing ingredient (malt, hops, yeast, adjuncts, packaging…) lives here once, with its current cost per unit. When you add a batch, each ingredient line starts from whatever's here — but once a batch is saved, that batch keeps its own locked-in cost even if you update the price here later.
Ingredient Cost / Unit Unit Package
Pick a batch on the left, or brew a new one. Each batch gets its own lot number and keeps whatever ingredient costs were current when it was created — it won't change later even if ingredient prices do. Check "On Tap" for whatever's currently pouring.
If a supplier recalls a lot (e.g. a specific bag of calcium carbonate), search that lot # here to see every batch it went into — and whether that beer is currently on tap.

Backup & restore

Everything is saved automatically to the shared database as you go. Download a backup file occasionally as a safety net.

Restoring replaces the shared data for everyone, not just your screen — use carefully.

Reset

Wipes everything for everyone and reloads the original starter data (your 67 historical batches).

Signed in employees share one live set of batch data. Use "Download backup" on the Settings tab occasionally as a safety net.

Add Ingredient

e.g. "I paid $61.68 for a 55 lb sack" → the app works out cost per lb. Package unit and recipe unit can differ (lb vs. oz, gallon vs. floz…) — the app converts automatically as long as they're both weight or both volume.
grams / cup
Set this once and batches can enter this ingredient in tsp, tbsp, cup, floz, pint, quart, gal, ml, or L even if it's normally weighed — it'll convert automatically.
When you add this ingredient to a batch, its lot # and supplier fill in automatically — then lock to that batch, even if you update the lot # here later for a new purchase. Keeping this current lets you trace a recall back to every batch that used the affected lot.
