Can be slightly confusing to navigate between creating, editing, brewing and updating a batch at first. But otherwise seems excellent after 3 brews.

Love the fermentation integration...but! The app needs landscape mode for us Tilt users that utilize an old phone or tablet. This is needed in order to log to Grain father app, so we can view graphs in portrait mode.

Works great for me, what else can you want! The grain father makes brew day a breeze.

All you need to operate your all-in-one Grain father brewing system and access to 1000s of community recipes.
★★★★☆Kevin O'Neill· May 30, 2024
V useful and essential for the whole process. Ability to do staggered mash additions (like boil ones) would be great
★☆☆☆☆Jens Andreas Sletten (Jens)· Jul 27, 2025
Uses 30% of my total battery on S25 ultra, every day, and im not even using or opening the app. Fix it!!! Had to uninstall, just to preserve my battery.
★☆☆☆☆Chris Wilton· Nov 27, 2022
Seems there's no way to control the grain father without creating a recipe first. I already use other, better software to create my recipes and log my session. All I should need to enter is mash steps, to get started. Yes I can do that manually on the controller on brew day, but it would save time, and allow some control of the grain father through my phone, if I didn't need to duplicate my recipe in this app. If you don't wish to do that, how about providing an API for 3rd party apps?
★★☆☆☆David Hingston· Oct 19, 2024
I'm ok with the UI etc. but there's an awful bug that leaves the Bluetooth service running that will drain my phone battery in hours. This is days after a brew, where the app is closed. I have to constantly force stop.
