FAQ


Why could there be multiple product skus for a single serial number?

Brew Ninja allows you to create as many product skus as you like - even if some have the same recipe and container. You might want to create two versions of the same recipe and keg size - a regular version and a holiday special, perhaps. If both product skus are active, Brew Ninja will always ask you which one you meant rather than guessing.


Why can't Brew Ninja find my serial number?

If Brew Ninja cannot find the serial number you just scanned or entered, check the status of that piece of equipment - it may be marked as out on a rental.
