I just enabled sorting for most search terms in the refine search section. You can sort by rating, name, abv, or most recently modified. If you don't see the search box refine your terms - for example searching 'ale' will not show the box since there are many thousands of ales until you refine it further.

Hi Brad! Love the new program and I'm really enjoying the recipe database. Is the Berliner Weisse style a subcategory of one of the popular styles? If not can it be added? One of my favorite summer styles of beer. Thanks!

Thanks - glad to hear you are enjoying it. Berliner Weisse is BJCP category 17A, which you can get from the styles page. We only have a few recipes in it to date, but hopefully someone will add more.

Hey Brad, I was looking at your first All Grain recipe and wondering how it turned out for you? Is there a way to comment on recipes with submitting a rating? Thanks, loving this new version!

No - you do need to include a rating. Which recipe were you looking at?

That was not actually mine - Simon (I believe from Australia) created that one. I posted some recipes from the BeerSmith recipe archive on this site to get things started.

Hi Brad, since there will be A LOT of recipes, I was wondering if you could sort of give a star or recognition ribbon or icon for a well-known recipe. For instance, if there´s a clone to dogfish head 60 min IPA, and that clone recipe came FROM THE BREWER, then you could add this tag or ribbon. And if a certain recipe won the NHC, you could also award that recipe with an icon or ribbon. This way we could really distinguis the good recipes from the bad, cause the rating system isn´t always faithful to a good recipe.

I think its a great idea - though I might need a few volunteers to help me moderate. It would not be hard to add a ribbon - the hard part is moderating the requests which I assume would be manual. It does look like we're going to have a few recipes here.

Hey Brad! I've been keeping a (very small) list of things I think would be nice for this website:
1. The ability to scale another users recipe to a different batch size directly from the website, the same way one can scale a recipe in the BS program.
2. The ability to delineate type of measurement by ingredient, i.e. lbs for malt and grams for hops.
3. The ability for users to edit recipes post-upload to the cloud... a few times now, I've uploaded a recipe and wanted to tweak minor things, so I had to delete it from the cloud, edit it in BS, then re-upload.
Great stuff!!

Thanks - I'll take a look at the first two. For item three, you don't have to delete an item from the cloud but can open up your cloud view in BeerSmith and actually edit the item in place (in cloud view) by double clicking it.

Hi Brad, I have noticed that if I use a different styleguide ie the AABC one that the recipes uploaded don't seem to go into the style categories obviously because the style numbering is different, is there any solution for this?

I don't have an easy way to map styles, however the full text search will pick up both the name of the recipe and the style name when doing a search.
