Basic Distillation Calculator App

[monstersX]

So I've been using this as I do a batch of rum, and I'm really happy with it.

Of note, I can also distribute it as a desktop app, which has been handy.

I'm developing a batch diary, with structured input, so types of notes to add to a batch

SG reading
free text
temperature
addition (ingredient/amount)

so sg readings /temperature would be able to be reported on with a graph or some such.. and of course export to a file of some sort for your records..

If anyone has any thoughts on that I'd be interested

I have the update with SG calibration temp as an input, I'll probably release that today.

I really appreciate the work .. my only request is to integrate a liquor calculator(liquid mixture, alcohol, sugar) with output quantity and resulting alcohol degree. I know I said it and I believe it would be useful, since those who practice distillation often also creates liqueurs. I created a post about how usually calculate all this.

[monstersX]

Great, can you point me at that post?

I'm always looking through my millions of photo's on my phone for the liquid/vapor ethanol phase diagram and the oak toast temp infographic...

[monstersX]

There you go, so for example adding a photo would be good, I have exactly that in my notes actually,

Just downloaded the android version. Thanks for taking the time to work on this.

Looks like in the bottle dilute calculator that it gives the amounts for 1 liter, regardless of what you put in desired volume.

Oh, that's wild!

fixing.

ok, 1.4.2. with the bug fix is submitted to both stores.

Continue like this, a nice evolution. I don't know if you are still interested in my request but I can attach an article (in my Italian language) that you might feel interesting if you decide the "liqueurs" section, the calculations are similar to my post (but do not take into account the water contraction factor + Alcohol), the same site at the bottom of the page contains a calculator, is a great approximation that I often use.

[monstersX]

Absolutely,

I'm working on the 'batch diary' function right now, which will probably take a few weeks of puttering, but who knows maybe I'll change gears and drop this in.

Well ... you have to forgive my insistence but I haven't found any app that does those calculations (strange but true), a few apps dedicated to distillation and none to the liqueurs, except some website (the link one is a good point). I follow the evolution close up.

Notes coming along

I started with photos

[monstersX]

Good progress on notes it think. The SG will allow the app to say expected ABV at this point, etc..

[Demy]

I follow the job.

[stillanoob]

I agree with Demy that the liqueur calc could be handy. Liking the app so far!

Added in the basic Liqueur calculator as defined above, I'm sure we'll want changes to it.

I replied yesterday to your pm, then I have other tips if you are available ... one step at a time and thank you for your work.

v 1.6.1 version just uploaded, includes the batch diary, I think it's a good start.

did my best to test against all screen sizes

Thank you for your work, I'll watch the new version ... I had seen some small bugs in the previous one now the latest version comes up.

[Demy]

Ok, on the home page in the title missing a "L" to "distilers", my icon on the phone display is not that of the app but a white / black barrel ... maybe normal things but I'm signaling it . In the future, it would be nice to have a "mash of cereals" section and one with fruit. Thank you for your time

[monstersX]

heh, another day another typo fix.

[monstersX]

Added in the ABV calculation to the top of the diary. I think it works pretty well.

Hi, I wanted to report a malfunction in the batch section. I found 2 problems: create the title, then add description .. by tap on "update" the description disappears, if instead simply touch the screen then it's okay ... but if you have created 2 logs the same description appears on the log 1 and Log 2. The other lack is the fact that I cannot eliminate a log. (Android system)

[EricTheRed]

On the calculator for sugar wash - you cannot use decimal amounts

[monstersX]

Yeah description isn't actually wired up right now, it doesn't store it at all..

Oh, that's a good one. thanks.

I had a little play with the batch log earlier and it seems to ignore the selected date and only record todays date. (On android)
