How much coffee, how much water, when to pour.

Ratio

Enter coffee or water and the other is calculated from the 1:x ratio; water from the number of cups, and the estimated coffee in the cup (minus the water held by the grounds). Dose → yield for espresso. "Save to recipe" writes the new amounts into the recipe.

Brewing timer

A large clock, step n / total, scale target, time left in the step, the next step and pour progress. Pause, Next step, Reset; a short countdown before starting. Time stays accurate in the background too.

Sound, vibration, screen on

A sound generated on the device at each step change and ticks before the next step; vibration on devices that support it. The screen can stay on while brewing; each of these can be turned off in the settings.

Methods and steps

V60, Kalita, Chemex, AeroPress (standard and inverted), French press, moka pot, espresso, Turkish coffee, cold brew and "Other". Each step has a name, start time, target water on the scale, pour time and a note; when the amounts change, the targets scale with them.

Brew log

When the brew is finished, taste (sour ↔ bitter), strength (light ↔ strong), rating and notes are recorded, with a suggestion for next time: a finer or coarser grind, water temperature, ratio. "Full log" offers a summary, search, editing and CSV.

Beans

Roaster, origin, process, roast level and date; days since roast and freshness (resting, fresh, mature, old). The remaining amount goes down with the dose of every brew added to the log.
