Built for Acaia, Ultrakoki, Varia, and Bookoo Bluetooth scales.

All-in-one Coffee Brewing App

Visualize Extraction with Real-Time Flow Profiling

Stop brewing in the dark. Connect your Bluetooth scale to watch live weight and pour-over flow rate update as you pour, while the brewing chart draws itself in real time—so you catch an unstable pour while you can still fix it.

Step-by-Step Guided Brewing

Brew along with any recipe, including curated guides from World Brewers Cup champions. The app calls out every pour and target weight while overlaying your live curve on the target, so you can correct a drifting pour mid-brew.

Step-by-Step Guided Brewing

Automatic Pour Phase Analysis

Every saved brew is broken into its pouring structure automatically—the bloom and each pour detected for you. Read pour rate against drip rate and water in against coffee out on paired charts, then expand any phase for its water, duration, and average flow rate.

Automatic Pour Phase Analysis

Complete Brew Records

Every brew is logged in full: bean, grind size, water temperature, dose, ratio, and time. Add a TDS reading and each record shows its extraction yield against the ideal window, turning your history into something you can learn from.

Brew Comparison

Overlay two brews on one chart and switch between water in, pour rate, coffee out, and drip rate. Set one as the baseline and every phase reports its own delta in time, water, and flow—so you know which change moved the cup.

Bean and Gear Library

Keep every bag on file with roaster, origin, process, roast level, and tasting notes, plus a days-off-roast marker that tells you when it hits its peak. Your grinders, drippers, filter papers, and brewing water live alongside them.
