Create your account and workspace

Sign up, accept the terms, and create your first workspace so you can start tracking what you make.

Everything you track in Brewstiller lives inside a workspace — your recipes, batches, sensors, and records all belong to one. Creating your account walks you straight into creating that first workspace, so you can be tracking a batch within a few minutes.

Create your account

  1. Go to the sign-up page at /sign-up (the "Sign up" or "Get started" link from the Brewstiller home page also brings you here).
  2. Enter your email address and follow the prompts to set up your account. You may be asked to verify your email before you can continue.
  3. When your account is ready, Brewstiller sends you into the setup wizard automatically. You should see the first step, Welcome to Brewstiller, at the top of the page.

If you already have an account, go to /sign-in instead and enter your details. If you already belong to a workspace, signing in takes you straight to your dashboard.

Accept the terms and confirm your age

The first step of the wizard, Welcome to Brewstiller, is where you read a short plain- language note about the law where you live and agree to the terms. Nothing here restricts features by location — it's an acknowledgment, not a gate.

  1. Read the note titled A quick note on the law where you live, and the Beta Addendum §4 acknowledgment below it. (Any document named in these — the Terms of Service, Beta Addendum, and Privacy Policy — opens in a new tab if you want to read it in full; your progress is kept.)
  2. Tick the box confirming you are of legal drinking age where you live.
  3. Tick the box agreeing to the Terms of Service and Beta Addendum and affirming you will operate within the laws that apply to you.
  4. If you were given a beta invite code, enter it in the optional field. You don't need one to continue during the beta — you can leave it blank.
  5. Choose Continue. The button stays disabled until both boxes are ticked.

Name your workspace and pick your units

The second step, Create your workspace, sets up your workspace. New workspaces start on the hobby plan; you can manage plans later from Settings & team.

  1. In Workspace name, enter a name for your operation — for example, Garage Brewery. You can rename it later in workspace settings.
  2. Under Measurement units, choose how you'd like quantities shown: US customary (lb, °F, gal) or Metric (kg, °C, L).
  3. Choose Create workspace. When it succeeds, the wizard moves to the final step and your new workspace is active.

Take your first step (or explore)

The final step, You're all set — let's make something, offers three common first actions. Pick whichever fits, or head straight into the app.

  1. Choose one of the cards to jump straight into that task:
    • Create your first recipe — lay out ingredients and steps (see Recipes & batches).
    • Connect a sensor — track temperature and gravity live (see Fermentation & sensors).
    • Import existing recipes — bring in recipes from a BeerXML or BeerJSON file.
  2. Or choose I'll explore on my own to go to your Home dashboard.

Either way you land in the app. From here, see Your dashboard to get oriented.
