It gradually became difficult to keep track of all brews, some where made for storage, some were fresh, some in bottles and something in kegs.
When you have beer on tap, and have no automatic solution to keep track of how much is left, the solution is to lift on the keg, which means that sediment is swirled up, this is not an ideal solution. Is is also possible to use paper or excel sheets to keep track of each pour, but this seemed unnecessarily cumbersome. The result was a web solution or a web app where you could keep track of how much is left in your keg in a simple and clear way.
To have a complete solution, manual registration is not enough we needed to also support automatic solutions. Therefore, support was made for both Plaato Keg and Kegtron.
After registering a lot of beers, it soon became clear that we had to create a system for retrieving this information from 3rd party solutions, thus we integrated both Brewfather and Untappd.
