The program will now display your named custom report in the preview pane. Your newly named report should be in the list – select it now. Select any recipe and then go to the drop down Report which is on the bar between the list of recipes and the preview window. On the bottom half of My Recipes view you have the preview pane that shows a preview of the currently selected recipe. Once you have completed that press Ok twice to save your changes, and go back to My Recipes view in the program. Next select the type (usually HTML) and finally click on the Import Template File to import your template file that you just created in the steps above. From there click on the the Add Report button and give your report a name. To add it go to Options->Reports (or BeerSmith->Preferences on the Mac) within BeerSmith. Lets say you have finished editing your custom report file and want to try it in BeerSmith. For example adding … around an element will make it bold. You can also use HTML and CSS within the file to style various elements if you are familiar with those constructs. How do you find the tags? Well we have a complete list here on the forum of tags you can use in your reports. When the report is displayed these tags are replaced with the real data. Many of these tags are from the BeerXML standard, but there are also over 100 custom tags you can include for just about any conceivable recipe field to display whatever you like in your report. Here’s a sample below from the recipe file – $TYPE is the recipe type (All Grain, Extract, Partial Mash, Cider, etc…), $DISPLAY_BATCH_SIZE is the batch size with units, etc… Type: $TYPE The tags all begin with a ‘$’ character and are in upper case such as $NAME. If we look at the top of the NewRecipe.html file in a simple text editor we see there is a bunch of text along with various tags. You can have multiple custom reports for different purposes and some users have even created reports to print beer labels and other interesting artwork. When editing the file I do recommend storing it under a different name such as “MyRecipe.htm” so you can differentiate it.

Even something as simple as TextEdit on the Mac or Notepad on the PC will let you view this file. I don’t recommend using complex programs like Microsoft Word as they introduce a lot of HTML styling that can cause problems when you post your edited file back to BeerSmith. To edit the HTM files I recommend using a simple text editor or a simple HTML editor. CiderBrewSheet.htm – Current default brew sheet (brewing instructions) file.MeadBrewsheet.htm – Current default brew sheet (brewing instructions) file.

ExtractBrewsheet.htm – Current default brew sheet (brewing instructions) file.

Competition.html – Competition recipe file.

NewBrewSheet.htm – Current default brew sheet (brewing instructions) file.

Note you can right click on the link and “save as” the report to a file for editing.

You can download the most popular default reports from the links here to use as a template for your custom report. You can do this by starting with one of the default reports. Many users want to customize their reports to display additional information, add new instructions on brew day or display custom batch data. Custom Reports in BeerSmithīeerSmith desktop uses a simple HTML format or plain text format for all of its generated recipe reports. BeerSmith 2 had a slightly different setup where you need to copy your template to the Documents/Reports directory before adding it. The process described below applies to BeerSmith 3. This feature is currently only available on the desktop version of BeerSmith. This week I take a look at how you can create custom reports in the BeerSmith desktop program.
