What’s better than using Калькулятор пивовара by Anton Kirilenko? Well, try it on a big screen, on your PC or Mac, with BlueStacks to see the difference.

Калькулятор пивовара is basically a brew day control panel. It lets a homebrewer build a recipe and crunch the numbers without digging through spreadsheets. The app figures out how much water, malt, and hops are needed, then goes deeper into the stuff that actually makes a batch hit the target. Alcohol by volume is calculated from gravity, boil off is estimated to reach the right density, and there is a mash section that tells the strike water temperature and volume for each rest. Bitterness is shown in IBU, color in EBC and SRM, so it is easy to tune a pale ale versus something darker. It even handles priming sugar for carbonation and tells how many bottles to prep, which saves the last minute scramble.

What stands out is how practical it feels. No fluff, just inputs and clear results that update fast. Hydrometer and refractometer readings can be corrected, so measurements do not get skewed by temperature or fermentation alcohol. Running it on a PC with BlueStacks is handy because there is more room to see the mash steps and hop additions, and typing numbers with a keyboard is just quicker. Beginners can follow the prompts to get in the ballpark, and experienced brewers can nudge bitterness, color, and gravity until it looks right. The whole thing feels like a small lab notebook glued to a calculator.
