# Adding A Brewing Profile For The Z / Zymatic

**Adding a brewing profile to a recipe allows the recipe to be brewed by your Z / Zymatic as well as you can share the recipe with so they too will have the brewing profile that was used to brew the beer. To start creating a brewing profile for the Z / Zymatic click on the Z / Zy Profile button located below the Brewing Steps heading.**
