Anyone know what the status of Promash is? Website says it will be up on 6-1, which has obviously passed. Does anyone have insight into whether it will be resurrected for newer versions of Windows?

Works fine on both Win 7&8.  I have rumors that Jeff is at work on it, but I have no definite info.

I used to love this software, but finally gave up a few years back.  BeerSmith took a little getting used to, but I love it now.

I just don't see any reason I'd want to abandon Promash.  It does everything I need to do.

Love ProMash.  Name a feature Beer Smith has and ProMash doesn't and I'll show you a feature that is over-simplifying something or hiding important information from you.

Two outside tools that I rely on are Kai's water spreadsheet and Mr Malty's yeast calculator.  But I was under the impression that Beer Smith lacked those or had other, inferior versions.

I think there are those of us who would like to give ProMash a real go... I wasn't aware of it until I started brewing seriously and there was no support at the time.

...but the lack of information or access even to the executable means I am still using BeerSmith. I am not terribly happy with it nor the fairly bad advice that is given with their email blasts. Met Brad at NHC and he seems like a great guy - but the direction BeerSmith has taken has just overcomplicated what should have been more robust and less unwieldy. BeerSmith works - but I have looking at BrewToad and others that seem somewhat better for the price.

Still using ProMash. Works fine.

Same here.  I tried learning Beersmith, but the results varied greatly from what I got in Promash.  Finally decided it was more hassle than it was worth.

I would like to see an updated BJCP Style guidelines (*.bism).I want to brew a Festbier BJCP 4b, but it is still using outdated guidelines. Anyone have a fix for this?

I am still a Promash fan. I can make up a recipe in no time. I add my own ingredients as they change over time. I tried the trial version of Beersmith once and didn't like it, sorry Brad. Using Windows 7 at the moment, but if I do upgrade to Win 10, I hope Promash will still work okay.

So where can I go to download the software?  The webpage says it will be back in June 2015!!!

Old dog new tricks?
I have hundreds of sessions and recipes on my 1998 version (updated along the way). When I went to 64bit system I had to 'force' the system and software to use as a 64bit program.
I'm pre-heating my mash tun right now and starting a brew this morning using ProMash. I have slight fears of loosing years of history, recipes, sessions, result notes for references, and the ability to formulate new recipes without ProMash.

There is not too much that need to be upgraded in Pro Mash. May be water calculation. All it needs is to be recompiled with current compiler.

Long time ProMash user here as well. I bought Beer Smith, but couldn't get comfortable enough to make the switch permanently.

I made the windows 10 upgrade and ProMash works great for me.
