In the My Inventory page, the rounding of the Unit Price to two decimal places creates a BIG rounding error when the unit is grams.

For example, if I buy 250g of chocolate malt for $1.99, the unit cost is $0.00796/g. The initial calculation is accurate, but then the unit price is stored as $0.01/g, meaning you are projecting the total cost at $2.50, which is a 25% margin of error!

Similarly, I bought 1500g of 2-row for $8.97, which is $0.00598/g, but again, the unit price is stored as $0.01. Way off!

Can you at least support 3 decimal places? 4 would be preferable.
 
We can take a look at supporting further precision in the future.

For now I would recommend changing your inventory units from 1500 grams to 1.5 kg, and 250 grams to 0.250 kg to resolve this issue.
