The note capability is very helpful. I love this app and use it every time I bake bread. The app no longer runs on my old mini iPad but I still use it on my iPhone. ### 2/5 — Basic app *2022-08-08, version 3.2* I bake sourdough breads. It does not have provisions for sourdough breads, hence the hydration calculation is inaccurate. It does not meet my needs but it will do for now until I find a better app that’s designed for sourdough bakers. ### 4/5 — Missing very little *2021-02-01, version 3.2* This app is great fir my new micro bakery. There are very few things I would change or add. I use this app on several devices around the bakery and it would be great if it used a cloud based experience that shared recipes across multiple devices. It is too easy to make changes to a recipe and not update other devices. Maybe even an option to replace duplicate recipes. Also, it is less important to me what the Finished weight after baking is as opposed to the recipe total weight. And in grams nit pounds. Although it would also be nice to be able to select standard or metric and have it auto convert a recipe. I love the ability to scale my recipes and would be even better if you could use a quick scale button instead of a slider. Or even a fillable scaling option. I also would like to be able to edit the name of a bread in the edit window without duplicating the entire recipe into a new recipe and then drleting the old. Some of the functionality of Breadcalc.com would be awesome to add into this app. ### 4/5 — It will do fine *2020-12-15, version 3.2* It’s a basic tool. It does enough for my needs without being too fancy. It feels a tad clunky in maneuvering from feature to feature. My biggest criticism is I haven’t found how to input decimals in the ingredient list. I’m new to the program, so it may be available to do, but I haven’t found out how to do it yet. I assume it’s not available though. For smaller batches it’s not a big deal, but on 20k and larger bakes, I would like to be more accurate. ### 4/5 — Photos *2020-12-13, version 3.2* Would be great if you could include more than one photo. 3 would be adequate. ### 5/5 — Excellent *2020-06-29, version 3.2* This app is extremely useful when your breadmaking keep all your records on it for the different types of bread also it allows you to scale up if you need to I’d recommend this to any part time breadmaker. ### 3/5 — Great App *2020-05-23, version 3.2* A great App which does what it says on the packet. I’ve only used it for the last hour but already it seems that I can now I can throw away all my scraps of paper. Just one minor inconsistency - why on earth give the finished weight in Pounds. Enter ingredients in Grams, finished weight should be in Kilograms. As I try to use it more the limitations become clear. For basic breads it’s great but with something a little more complicated it struggles. A couple of examples: 1. The App includes ‘Leaven’ and can take it into account for hydration calculations. However if you want to use a Spelt leaven a new ingredient has to be created which is not considered in the calculation. 2. There doesn’t appear to be an easy way to show the ingredients for a preferment separately. 3. Some recipes will include small quantities of spice, eg. Caraway and Anise. In such cases a measure in teaspoons would be very helpful. A great App but for me it’s disappointing. I thought I’d found a way to get rid of my written notes but for now they will remain and my search continues. ### 5/5 — Perfect note taker *2020-05-22, version 3.2* If you are starting out baking bread this is perfect for making notes of your recipes. Yep that’s it that’s the review it’s perfect. Oh and free. I’d for sure pay for this one. ### 5/5 — Great app *2020-05-21, version 3.2* Great app, just what I was looking for. One useful tool could be a percentage calculator with the hydration of the bread. Anyway, five stars rating. ### 5/5 — Great Artisan Bread App *2020-04-24, version 3.2* This app is great for keeping track of recipes and easily editing to create new recipes. The note capability is very helpful. I love this app and use it every time I bake bread. ## Frequently asked questions about Artisan Bread Maker ### What does the Artisan Bread Maker app do?
