You can now build saved batch comparison dashboards that track readings like temperature, gravity, pH and any of your brew sheet input/calculated variables across multiple batches of the same recipe - making it easy to spot trends and keep your batches consistent. Benchmark batches can be used to set the "perfect batch" for each beer/drink and will always be included in the comparison graphs. Learn more.

Your recipe calculations can now be flagged on the production dashboard's Alerts tab when their results fall outside your set thresholds, sitting right alongside your manual reading alerts. Each calculation action has a new "Show alerts on the Production Dashboard" toggle, so you choose which calculations are worth flagging. Learn more.

You can now capture far more than gravity, pH and temperature on a recipe's "Take reading" action, without having to use Custom readings. We've added distance, pressure, CO₂, percentage, dissolved oxygen, colour, bitterness and haze, each with the right units to choose from (such as IBU, EBC/SRM, bar/psi and g/l). The reading picker has also been redesigned into a cleaner, searchable layout, and all the new types work with calculated variables and recipe file import/export. Learn more at the Recipes and Brew sheets help guide.

We've added the ability to add notes to uploaded files in most places in Breww. Simply upload the file as usual and then click the edit button (pencil icon) to update the notes.

You can now choose how Breww values your finished goods (packaged beer) in your stock valuations. Head to Reporting → Stock valuations → Valuation settings and pick from:

• Cost (the default) - values packaged beer at its production cost, just as before.
• Sale price (new) - values each product at its sale price from a price book, so your stock valuation reflects what your beer is worth to sell rather than what it cost to make.

Choose a specific price book, or leave it blank to use your default price book each time a valuation runs. Your valuation report shows which method and price book were used.

This setting affects finished goods only - WIP beer, serving batches, stock items, and ingredient batches are always valued at cost. For more information, see the updated Stock Valuations help guide.

We've streamlined adding products to an order, making it quicker to find, select and price up items as you build a draft order. It quicker than ever to enter common quantities and if adding multiple items at once, you can go directly back to the "Product finder" in the same state (i.e. same search results) as when the first product was added.

You can now merge duplicate products together from Actions → Merge duplicate products, on any product page, combining their stock, sales and history into one. This works for accidentally created duplicates, as well as for tidying up products that should have been set up as aliases or as derived-at-packaging products of each other.

Catch process inconsistencies early, make better in-the-moment decisions, and keep your batches in spec - without flipping back through old brew sheets. Readings on your brew sheet (gravity, pH, temperature, and more) now show a sparkline of the same measurement from up to your 10 most recent batches of that beer, with today's value highlighted alongside the target line and your red/amber/green threshold bands. Hover any point to see which batch it came from, how long ago, and the exact value. It appears automatically wherever a reading has a target and input variable set, and updates live as you save!

Set targets and acceptable deviation bands on your recipe readings, and Breww will flag any out-of-spec values right on the brew sheet - plus surface them in one place on the new Alerts tab of the production dashboard. System defaults work out of the box, with the option to override them yourself and per-action tweaks for the cases that need them. Learn more at the Deviation thresholds and targets help guide.
