Hi Bob, I just wanted to add our thoughts to your proposal as this was something I raised previously, and I think it got lost amongst some other discussion. We don’t use the Container dashboard much itself as in our situation, we have multiple container types, and it has become very crowded, but we agree that being able to use this at a glance would be helpful.
In my mind, you would still link the stock items to the Container Types - and this is where breww would read the available level from, but as an added level if it could also cover your attached sundry items (shives, keystones, can lids.etc) - you would then see easily how many available containers you had to fill, giving the added bonus of an extra flag if say you’d run out of shives, Available would say 0 (as you can’t fill a firkin without a shive as an example).
