Connect Beer ABV Calculator to ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini

Set it up once and it works in ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and any other client you love. It all runs safely in the background, so you can relax and focus on what really matters. Turn your gravity readings into precise fermentation data.

Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.

No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.

Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

V8 Isolate01

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.

Kill Switch02

One switch stops every agent. Instantly.

One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.

FinOps per User03

Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.

Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.

Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.

Curated set · 3 capabilities

We ship only the actions that matter.

Capability set01 / 01

01-03

3 capabilities in this set.

Part of 3 available through Beer ABV Calculator.

  1. 01

    Convert gravity units

    This capability switches measurements between Specific Gravity and Plato. It's useful when you need to move between different brewing standards quickly.

  2. 02

    Validate fermentation sanity

    This capability checks if your gravity readings are physically possible. It flags impossible data, like a final gravity that is higher than your original gravity.

  3. 03

    Calculate abv metrics

    This capability handles the core math for your brew. It calculates alcohol content, apparent attenuation, real extract, and caloric density from your readings.

Real work

What teams actually run

01

Batch Tracking

You feed your OG and FG to your agent to log the final ABV and attenuation of a new batch.

02

Unit Switching

You quickly convert a Plato reading from a refractometer into Specific Gravity for your logs.

03

Error Detection

You check a set of readings to see if a hydrometer error caused an impossible gravity reading.

04

Nutritional Logging

You calculate the calories in a specific beer based on its gravity readings.

One connector, every AI

Beer ABV Calculator works with the most popular AI clients.

These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Building your own app? The connector is yours to use.

You don't need a client to put Beer ABV Calculator to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.

Connect your client

One URL. Every client.

Activate the Connector, copy your link, and paste it into the client you already use. 3 capabilities arrive ready to run.

Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Beer ABV Calculator, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Beer ABV Calculator. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

Who it's for

Built for the work Beer ABV Calculator owners hand off.

This MCP is built for people who brew beer and want to automate their fermentation tracking.

  • 01

    Homebrewers

    They hand off gravity readings to the AI to track fermentation progress.

  • 02

    Brewery Technicians

    They use the capability to quickly convert units or verify batch data.

FAQ

Questions Beer ABV Calculator owners ask.

  • 01

    How do I use this with Claude?

    You connect the MCP through the Vinkius platform. Once connected, you can simply ask Claude to calculate ABV or convert gravity units directly in your chat.

  • 02

    Can it check if my gravity readings are wrong?

    Yes. The validate_fermentation_sanity capability checks if your readings are physically possible, such as ensuring the final gravity isn't higher than the original gravity.

  • 03

    What metrics can it calculate?

    It calculates alcohol content, apparent attenuation, real extract, and caloric density.

  • 04

    Does it support Plato measurements?

    Yes. You can use the convert_gravity_units capability to switch between Plato and Specific Gravity.

  • 05

    Do I need to host this myself?

    No. Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP for you, so it's ready to use as soon as you connect your client.

  • 06

    What units can I use for gravity?

    You can use either Specific Gravity (e.g., 1.050) or Plato (e.g., 12.5). The calculate_abv_metrics capability handles both automatically.

  • 07

    How is the beer style determined?

    The style (Session, Standard, Strong, or Imperial) is automatically assigned based on the calculated ABV percentage.

  • 08

    Can I check if my gravity readings are valid?

    Yes, use the validate_fermentation_sanity capability to check if your original and final gravity readings are physically possible.
