I would like to see support for split/partigyle batches.
I just switched for ProMash after using that software for several years. The features that got me to change were the support for batch sparging and for entering more than 1 yeast. They ability to sync recipes to my phone should be nice also.
I recently started making sour beers. To play with all of the variables, I started brewing a 12 gallon batches and splitting the wort into two fermenters. Then, I have been pitching different sour blends to learn about how they work. I would like to track these individually after the boil. For example, I threw London Ale yeast and brett into one fermenter and Wyeast's Roselere blend into the other. Another example would be making a lambic and adding fruit to 1/2. In both cases, it would be nice to track gravities, additional ingredients added, oaking, and tasting notes separately. So far, my solution is to create 3 recipes. The first recipe will be used for brew day and include the full volume. The second and third recipes are scaled to 1/2 the full batch and used to track the split batches. It should work reasonably well, but it may get tedious if I need to change ingredients across the 3 recipes.
