So I opened up BeerSmith today to work on a recipe and had a weird problem. In the "Ingredients" box I don't see anything its just a blank white box. Below it has still calculated the OG, FG Color Bitterness etc. etc. It seems like it has all the information but for whatever reason isn't showing it. I shutdown and restarted twice to no avail.
Anyone ever had this happen or have any insight into how I can fix this? Thanks.
 
Check on the Beersmith site, in the forums. It is a known issue, and the fix is spelled out there.

It happened to me, and IIRC, it involves deleting a file in the program and/or user data directory.

Sorry I don't remember the exact fix.

Enjoy!
 
Thanks both it was indeed the newopts14.opts file Here is the link to the thread where they explain how to solve the problem on the Beer Smith forums

2 things that made this trickier than it needed to be:
1. I had to show hidden files to follow the path to the folder
2. Close BeerSmith before you delete the file or it won't delete.

Thanks again for the help guys.
