I don't include mash schedule, water treatment, fininings (and other miscellaneous ingredients), as these are all down to personal preferences, local water conditions (or the availability of RO water!), and so on. Some of these details might be present in the .beerxml file, thought I can't guarantee their accuracy, so make your own decisions!
