The Inventory view lets you manage your inventory of ingredients used for brewing.  From here you can add items to inventory, and edit the inventory and prices of items.

 

New Feature: If you have an existing item in inventory with a given price, then add a new item at a different price from the shopping cart, BeerSmith will dollar-average the price to determine average cost of the items in inventory.
