Dial in faster, waste less, build a library of every recipe that worked. **Bean Intel — before shot #1** See how this specific bean tends to behave: grind direction, yield preference, freshness window. When real community data exists (10+ pulls from other users), you see real patterns — percentages, ratios, shot times. When it doesn't, 9Bar gives you roast-level estimates grounded in extraction physics and tells you the difference. **One adjustment after every shot** Log your shot in under 30 seconds — dose, yield, time, taste, flow. 9Bar gives you one specific adjustment with direction, magnitude, and the extraction reason behind it. Not a checklist. Not five suggestions. One move. **Save your recipe when it's right** When your shot tastes balanced — or even just better — save it as your dialed-in recipe. Your library keeps every recipe you've nailed, organized by bean and roast level. **Your data, your patterns** See your total shots, beans dialed, and average shots to dial in. Over time, 9Bar surfaces what works for you specifically — which adjustments fix which problems, and how you compare to the community. **76 roasters. 265 beans. Add your own.** From Onyx to Happy Mug, Counter Culture to Kirkland Signature. Search by name, roast level, or style. Don't see your bean? Add it in seconds — your shots build the signal for everyone who pulls it after you. **Your setup, your way** Set your machine, grinder, basket, and scale. Choose ristretto, normale, or lungo — guidance adapts to your shot type. Switch units between grams and ounces. Your first 5 beans are free. After that, unlock unlimited beans with 9Bar Pro ($2.99/month or $19.99/year).
