Title: How to add Coopers Kits to Beer Smith
Post by: Garry on January 27, 2014, 02:46:56 PM
I saw this on Craigtube.

1. Download the CoopersKits.bsmx (http://www.nationalhomebrewclub.com/forum/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=5523.0;attach=4974) file
2. Open the CoopersKits.bsmx file
3. Press Ctrl + A to "select all" in the CoopersKit tab
4. Copy all the Coopers "grains"
5. Open the Grains Tab and paste the Coppers grains into it.

You can now add Coopers kits to your recipe by adding a grain.  :D

Don't forget to change the quantity to 1.7kg



Edit, I changed the attachment to bsmx instead of zip.

Mind if I link it off the Wiki?

Do you have access to wordpress?
That would make a nice little article/hint/tweet kinda thing.

No. If I did it in MS Word could you copy it in?

Should we add bsmx files as a valid file type? I think we should.

I don't think the virus writers would be bothered with bsmx.

it would be silly not to have beersmith files work here.

Thanks John. I'll try it in the morning when I'm back in the office. Android won't open the zip file  ::)

Excellent, and they are tiny files too.
Is it worth building a library somewhere within NHC space?
People post their recipes and link to them?

Chaps that's a really great idea, I'd love to be able to get recipes and not have to type the whole lot in each time.
Why don't you just link to them to beersmith cloud that way you are sharing with the planet?

Is there an annual Sub for the Cloud with unlimited recipes?
Have a club cloud.
