West Coast IPA
Brewfather AI · Premium Plus feature
The assistant is built into the app and grounded in your data — your recipes, your inventory, your equipment profiles. It is one of the advanced tools included with Premium Plus.
Creates complete recipes from an idea
“West Coast IPA with Citra and Mosaic”
Modifies the recipe you have open
“convert to all-grain” · “replace out of stock ingredients”
Answers from your batches and inventory
“What can I brew with what I have?”
500 AI credits included every month
Example conversation: a brewer asks Brewfather AI to create a hazy IPA around 6% with Citra and Galaxy. The assistant replies with a complete recipe — 5.5 kg Golden Promise and 0.9 kg flaked oats, OG 1.062 giving 6.2% ABV at 35 IBU, with 40 g Citra and 40 g Galaxy whirlpool additions — then creates the recipe.
Everything in one app
Design the recipe, run the brew day, watch the fermentation and manage your inventory — one app carries every batch from the first grain to the last pour.
Recipe Designer
Every stat recalculates in real time as you type — tweak the grain bill or hop schedule and watch gravity, bitterness and color move against the style guidelines, instantly.
Public recipe library
Explore thousands of public recipes from Brewfather brewers, search by style or ingredient, then copy a recipe into your own account and tune it for your system.
Plays well with hardware
From Tilt to iSpindel to your own DIY rig — Brewfather connects to 20+ hydrometers, controllers and cloud services out of the box, streaming readings directly into your batch.
Free for everyone
The same brewing calculations the app uses — ABV, hydrometer & refractometer correction, carbonation, strike water, IBU, yeast pitch rate and more. The app's calculators are free in-app, and the most-used ones live right here.
