Dashboard

A key feature and the first page you arrive on signing into Ollie Ops is your Dashboard which includes your tanks and brew scheduler. The dashboard is where you are able to schedule your brews to help create your raw material forecast as well as view what brews and yeast are currently in tanks. 

Calendar

Schedule a new batch

1. Click on the cell in the calendar that corresponds to both the date and fermenter that you would like to brew into.
2. Select the recipe that you would like to brew from the drop down menu.
3. Optionally, change the brew length. If you are brewing multiple turns of a recipe into a single tank, this is where you will enter the number of turns for that batch.

Moving a Scheduled Batch

It is quite likely that after scheduling a batch you will want to either brew it later or brew it in a different fermenter. That's no problem! Simply click and drag any unbrewed batch (labeled green) to where you want it and drop it. You can drag and drop any beer that has not yet been brewed.

Updating schedule length

Because of the nature of fermentation, it is likely that you will want to change the duration of time that the beer will be in the tank after you have brewed it. To change the length of time the beer is in the fermenter you can click and drag the far right end of the batch schedule "bar" and adjust the length however you would like.

Unscheduling a batch

If you decide that you do not want to brew a scheduled batch you can do the following.

1. Click on the batch "bar" on the calendar.
2. In the window that opens up click on the "Unschedule" button.

Brewing a batch on brew day

1. Click on the batch "bar" on the calendar.
2. Verify the brew date and change if needed.
3. Click on "Start brewing"

Fermenter Schedule Color Key

The scheduler has two color indicators that help determine the status of your batch.

• Green - Batch is scheduled
  • There is at least one batch remaining to be brewed
  • There are still other turns waiting to be brewed
• Blue - Batch is brewed/brewing
  • The beer is already brewed and has no more batches remaining to be brewed
  • The beer is currently brewings with no remaining turns
