Brewing is chemistry, and one guessed figure can spoil a batch. Scribbled notebooks, scattered spreadsheets and half-remembered gravity readings cost you sharp beer — and sometimes a whole fermenter. LabBrew keeps every reading, timer and calculation for the batch in one place, so the maths is finished before the wort has cooled. A single logbook and a complete calculator suite for every brew, from grain bill to glass. BATCHES & FERMENTATION - Follow active and conditioning batches with live day counts - Record gravity readings and watch the drop chart fall towards target FG - Attenuation and ABV recalculate as you log each sample BREW DAY TIMER - Guided mash, sparge, boil and whirlpool stages - High-resolution hop-addition alerts so bitterness and aroma land on cue - Hold-temperature prompts for every mash step RECIPE & CALCULATORS - Estimate original gravity and beer colour (SRM) …
Every shipping app on the App Store has gone through the same decisions you're working through right now: which screenshot goes first, what caption sits over it, which device frame to show, what color the background should be. The 6 screenshots above are LabBrew: Beverage Recipe Diary's answers to those questions — they're public, they're real, and they made it through Apple's review.
What the numbers say: LabBrew: Beverage Recipe Diary runs a dark set with one background colour (#040404) carried across every screenshot — the listing reads as a single poster when the shots sit side by side in search results. The accent colour we picked up, #BC1424, is the one to reuse for badges, arrows and highlighted words if you borrow this look. Hit Use this style to open the editor with these exact colours and drop your own screenshot in.
Notice the first screenshot in particular. It's the one users see in search results and on the product page, and it's where most apps spend their best caption and tightest design. Look at the proportion of background to phone, where the text sits, what one thing the image is trying to communicate.
