How to

Browse recipes and ingredients

Create a recipe or ingredient

  1. On the Recipe tab click Create recipe (the same button creates an ingredient from the Ingredient tab).
  2. Choose the product type: Production recipe, Complex ingredient, or Ingredient.
  3. Fill in name, description, and media; ingredients also get SKU/barcode, category, suppliers and stock location.
  4. For a production recipe: set batch yield and unit, batch code, expiry type and batch life, then add process steps (name each, pick a colour, or add a complex-ingredient step).
  5. Once at least one step is named, add ingredients from the search box, then set each one's process step, quantity and size.
  6. Click Create.
