So let say you need 10lb of 2 row for a recipe and you only have 8lb in your inventory. After clicking BREW, your shopping list then do NOT show that you have to buy 2lb? You have to go into your recipe manually and add up what you have to buy and then add this there? I thought that was what the shopping list was for? Am I missing something?

You add it to your shopping list when you're setting up the recipe, and say you type in 10 lb, and click 'add to shopping' and you'll see you need to add two pounds. You see the amount in your inventory when you're making the recipe.

Thanks for trying to help. So I made a test recipe added 12lb of 2 row, (Inventory 10lb, so now I'm low 2lb. ). Nowhere can I find a place to click "add to shopping"? Do you mean that I should open a new tab and go to my inventory and check it, then click shopping list and there click "add item" and write it in?

Actually on one page after clicking BREW I can see all the items I need. I just take a screenshot & print that out.

I just set up the inventory and this the was the first time trying to go to BREW.

We always do 4 brews at the time, during winter, so summers are free. (Florida sun and hot pots) I have to pay some attention to inventory and finalise recipes... then quick before they close on Friday's.

I did put in a support ticket for this, and one time when I tried it wasn't working properly. I apologize for not finding it sooner- no wonder you were having difficulty.

Where are you in Florida, by the way?
