Delayed racking releases

how to package drinks for bottle/cask conditioning without releasing it for sale immediately when racking (packaging) your drinks in breww, you can choose if you'd like to release this stock for sale immediately or hold it until a later date this is ideal for bottle/cask conditioning, but can also be used in any situation where you would like to package the beer (rather than leave it in the vessel), but don't want to immediately allow it to be sold or delivered to customers note, for barrel ageing we recommend setting up the barrels as "vessels" and leaving the batch open with the stock in the barrels, instead of using this feature we plan to add special features to aid with barrel ageing in the future when racking, you should see an option like this if you choose to release the stock immediately, then you don't need to enter a date or delay reason you can also choose between either automatic or manual release in both cases, you select the release date, and for automatic releases breww will release the stock early in the morning of the date chosen for manual releases, the date is used to help with your stock forecasting and if you allow pre ordering stock that's planned to be ready for the future, but it will still be up to you to release the stock for sale manually you can check your outstanding (and historical) releases at production > view > delayed racking releases clicking through to a specific release will give you a screen with a breakdown of the release information racking delayed release|690x316 automatic releases can be manually released "early" with the release stock for sale button if needed if you choose to reject the stock, this stock will be removed from breww, all containers will be emptied and "spoiled beer" records will be kept for you, in accordance with hmrc's requirements these can be viewed from within the beer duty section of breww there is no "undo button" for rejecting stock, so please make sure you are not going to change your mind before using rejecting the stock revoking stock already available for sale if you've already released stock for sale, and subsequently need to put this on hold, you can do so by going to the original batch, into the actions tab and using the retract stock from sale into delayed release button, as highlighted below screenshot 2022 02 23 at 17 31 12|690x103 faqs can i release only part of the delayed racking release or stock that has been retracted? stock that has been put on hold via a delayed racking release or by revoking the stock will be associated with the specific 'racking action'; for example, you may have packaged 40 50l kegs and set this as a delayed racking release it is not possible in this scenario to 'part release' this stock so that 20 are released for sale, and 20 remain on hold the entire racking action quantity would need to be released in this scenario
