Limit visible ingredients in BeerSmith Online to those in your inventory

[JFaustini]

Is it possible to limit the ingredients that show up when building a recipe in BeerSmith Online to those that are in your inventory? I know that the desktop version has or had this feature. Without this capability, it is cumbersome to use the inventory management capability in BeerSmith Online and to build recipes using the ingredients you have on hand.

If you are using the desktop version then yes. It is right there at the top of the page (I only checked fermentable)... a box that says show only items in inventory. If you are using the web or mobile version I cannot say for sure because I don't like or use those.

Thanks, Kevin. FYI, I stopped using the desktop version because I had a technical issues that required me to re-install Windows on my computer, and in the process I lost all my saved recipes. Apparently they are saved (by default, at least) with application data, not as separate data files that you can back up like your document files, so they go away if you have to reinstall windows. I kinda preferred the desktop version, but now I don't trust it.

Thanks for clarifying. That makes sense. I am mainly using the web version, which is probably why I cannot find that option. It is good to know the desktop version still supports filtering by inventory. Hopefully the web version will add the same feature in the future.
