Thinking about getting back into homebrewing after a ~9 year hiatus.

I assume the software situation as evolved significantly and I don’t even remember what I was using back then.

So what’s everyone using these days and why?

I carefully planned my first run on Brewtarget and after getting good results, just started modifying things slightly and never ran Brewtarget again 😁 TBH I didn't even recall the name but someone else mentioned it here.

I liked the software, and it was great for getting the ratios of things down. But experimenting (and writing every single recipe iteration down) is just my bag.
