Reviews of Barista

  • Really great, some quirks, hope it’s not abandoned!

    I’ve tried almost every brewing app out there and I’m currently sticking with this one, even with some of its annoying quirks.

    Great UI, love the timer screen and how it shows the next step (I don’t think any other app has that), and the “past sessions” section is perfect for my needs.

    The biggest issue I have is having to hit save/confirm after doing pretty much ANYTHING. Typing in a form field and hit the back button? You just lost what you typed. Spend 10 minutes creating your brew steps and hit back without pressing save first? You just lost your entire recipe. At the very least, a confirmation dialog would be much appreciated but ideally things just auto-save like most other apps.

    Looks like it hasn’t been updated in over a year so I worry that it’s been abandoned, but hopefully not because it really is one of the best brewing apps available.
  • Adds so much to my brewing experience.

    I love this app! A great coffee journal as well as a recipe book and timer!
  • Best out there

    This is the best coffee brewing app I have seen and used in the store. It incorporates nearly every feature you can imagine and want for tracking and brewing coffee. Creating recipes are very straight forward and even has built in calculators for popular recipes like the 4:6 method for v60. The developer is also awesome and very willing to try and implement suggestions into new builds. I can't recommend this app enough. Excellent app!
