The Equilibrio App is available for free download and it allows you to access the gelato recipes of the Bravo team and the world's greatest Chef glacier. Equilibrio is the new revolutionary system by Bravo consisting of a scale and an App for iPad that allow you to follow step by step, gram by gram, each processing stage of your work: from weighing, to the inclusion of the ingredients at the right time, passing through the cooking temperatures and cooling with accuracy to the centigrade degree, to the extraction. You'll be able to easily check your work! The scale and the app perfectly connect with each other. Equilibrio Smart Scale includes a starter pack of 20 replicable and customizable gelato recipes. These 20 recipes can be modified as many time as you want. With just one click, you will be able to buy the know-how of the best gelato masters in the world. The recipes of some popular names β Angelo Grasso, Luc Debove and many others β are already available for download, and many more famous names are coming in the future. Improved performance if connected to your Bravo machine: Bravo Trittico is already heart and mind, but today it is also equipped with reliable arms which allow it to become a trustworthy helper that is capable to make your laboratoryβs collaborators independent and performing assistants. But it doesn't end there, many other Bravo machines are also compatible with the Equilibrio App: Pastmatic, Gelmatic, Mixcream. The scale, the app and the Bravo machines are connected through the specially developed Wi-fi technology. This integrated system allows the user to monitor and execute every step of working process: scaling, inserting the ingredients at the right time, speed of mixing, temperature control with decimal precision and time control in both the hot and cold processes. Equilibrio for Pastry is now available for Trittico owners!

We make ice cream ourselves, in our own production, since 2015. IceForm Pro is where we balance our own mixes, and where a recipe becomes a tech card, a label, a batch on the floor and a price you can defend. We share what we have learned here and grow the app alongside our lab. Before it we used spreadsheets and calculators that always missed something. Once that cost us a whole batch. Every mistake since has left a limit or a warning in this app. THE RECIPE EDITOR When a figure leaves its range, the editor tells you how to bring it back: how many grams of which ingredient to add or take out, and what else that move fixes or breaks. The one you pick is applied with a tap. Or press Balance, and the app works out the whole recipe at once, keeping the lines you lock and the limits you set. - The adaptive IceForm profile: MSNF, sugars and solids follow your fat, PAC and POD balance on their own. - 32 built-in profiles for gelato, ice cream, sorbet and more, or your own. - A serving goal, display case, pozzetto or freezer, and the PAC hint points the right way. - The draft writes itself, and every save is a version you can compare and go back to. WHAT YOU SEE PAC and POD, MSNF, hardening factor, frozen water at serving temperature, the freezing curve, overrun, coldness, scoopability and a balance radar. GANACHE Water activity, Brix, SFC at 20 and 28 Β°C, pH, plastic range and shelf life. THE INGREDIENT STUDIO 340+ curated ingredients with full composition, sugars per USDA, PAC and POD worked out from what is in them. Import from USDA by name or barcode, or add your own in one editor. On Mac and iPad the library is a table that edits many ingredients at once. A finished recipe can become an ingredient in another. THE DAY ON THE FLOOR Home opens on what you were doing and what needs you. A batch runs as a shift with timers and readings. A recipe becomes products, pints, pans, cups, bars, each with its own pack, yield and price, and every lot carries the cost it was made at. WHAT IT COSTS AND EARNS Cost per litre, kilogram, scoop and piece, frozen into each batch the day it is made. Price and margin by channel after commission, break-even in portions a day, and the assortment split into stars, workhorses, puzzles and ballast. Eight reports, exported as a spreadsheet. THE ASSISTANT Ask in plain words, in any language. It drafts a recipe, rebalances one, or fills an ingredient from a name or a photo of its label. It proposes, you decide. You choose the AI provider: on this device, or in the cloud with your own account or key. iPhone, iPad and Mac, with iCloud sync. SUBSCRIPTION Balancing is free: the sample recipe, fully editable, the full read-out on anything you build, and one recipe and three ingredients of your own. Pro adds the ingredient library, USDA and barcode import, import and export, tech cards, the calculators and the assistant. Pro+ adds stock and orders, production, costing, prices and margins. New subscribers can try Pro free for 3 days or Pro+ for 2 weeks. If a subscription lapses, everything you made stays readable. PRIVACY Your recipes stay on your device and in your own iCloud. We never see them and train nothing on them. A cloud assistant sends your request to the provider you chose. Anonymous usage statistics can be turned off in Preferences.
