Hi Dave, this is a planned feature for the commercial version.
Converted from SourceForge issue 1489325, submitted by airgead
The one feature I feen that SB lacks is the promash concept of a brew session that is separate to a recipe. In Promash you create a recipe then open that is a brew session. All your actuals (OG/FG etc) are stored in the session. This lets you keep your recipe clean and as each session is saved separately you have a historical record of what you did.
In SB you need to adjust your estimated values for the ones you got on brewday which is fine if you only want to brew the recipe once. If you brew it a second time (or more) you have to adjust again so you lose the historical record. After mutiple brews the notes get somewhat confusing as well.
Having a separate brew session also allows you to make last minute ingredient or method substitutions without changing the underlying recipe. For example if I discover that I am out of northern brewer and the brewshop opnly has POR in stock it would be nice to be able to adjust the session to calculate how much POR without changing the whole recipe as this will be a one off and next time I will return to northern brewer.
I hope that made sense.
Cheers Dave
