Coffee Book for Android

TLDQR: Provides good amount of details for repeating brews; however, it lacks customizability, and the abilty to create your own “Guides.” Long story: It has some pretty nice features that help you dial in as repeat your chemistry, I really like the guide feature however it would be “amazing” if I could either create or edit a guide of my own (maybe I just don’t know how to do it) for a better step by step UI. The other thing would be to add more options to move around the details of the recipe and additional options like [bean (g)] instead of just coffee, I grind only as much as I need so occasionally the grind eats some if I don’t smack her hard enough. Or maybe water pre-boil. Also the ability to turn off details, like RPM, my grinder is very basic, or for those with a hand grinder… Like I said overall not bad.

Allows for excellent data input to dial in each roast along with being able to add specific notes and photos. The categories are very complete and well thought out. It is very easy to navigate and syncs well with Acaia Lunar. I only wish there was a category to input grinder rpm settings since that typically will change the grind and shot time settings for espresso. Perhaps being able to graph flow control profiles would be a nice add on in the future as well. These two things are very minor and very picky considerations to an otherwise excellent app. Very happy to give this 5 stars.

I love the functionality and simplicity of this app! It looks great, is easy to use, and delivers on its goals. My only suggestion is to add the Kalita Wave - one of the most popular pourover brewers - as an option for brew type. Other than that I’ve been very happy with this app!

I tried two different apps. This was very good for documentation. It would be nice if I had a Bluetooth scale, but it is not necessary. If I were going to add a future I would add some graphs or charts they compare the same brewers. But that is not essential. Overall it is straightforward and easy to understand I would get it again even if I had to pay for it. I think it’s worth at least a couple bucks. I recommend it. It won’t cost you anything to try it.
