One of the best apps of its kind
Fantastic brewing tracker
Revolutionary
The layout makes complete sense. I love the color palate and cute designs. It comes preloaded with all of the popular brewers. The features include everything I need to fully define every variable and input. It’s not bloated.
It’s FREE??
This is an app I would pay money for but I hugely appreciate how accessible it is. I would much rather donate and have it remain free to people who just want to give it a try, because this really sells itself if you know literally anything about the infinite variables with coffee brewing.
I have already found myself going back to my notes for numerous tweaks in my next brews. I could go back in time to every brew with any coffee and see exactly what I’ve done so I could get that same cup again, or so I knew what I did and could try another brewer to see how they compare.
This app is of course only as good as you are at recording your info, but it has absolutely everything I need. My only suggestion for inputs might be to add a field for specifying what recipe I’m using, e.g. Hoffman V60, Tetsuo 4:6, or whatever custom pour structure I want so I can experiment. I can always put that into the notes but I would enjoy being able to go back in the future and compare what recipes I’ve given the highest ratings to, for example.
A couple other things I’d love:
-The front page is lovely, especially the “time since last cup” which is such a thoughtful touch. I would enjoy a few more options for a graphical/pictorial summary of stats. It would be cool to have a graph or table or even just a list where I could see what grinders I’ve used with what coffee, what grind setting for a specific grinder have the highest brew rating, etc. Really just a basic comparison of whatever variables I’m interested in.
-The ability to create tags to improve filtering when I’m reviewing past brews based on what I’m looking for in the notes field. I would enjoy being able to search for specific conclusions like heavy/med/light body, high/med/low sweetness, etc.
Any shot this will eventually include a roast log version? I would spend much more time trying to roast the right coffee if it was as easy to record as this is for pour overs.

Hello Yabitu Koba, big thank you for the lovely review and the time taken to write this! Happy you notice and see all the investment that has went into this app. Regarding your question of the recipe: You can go to Menu -> Brewing parameters -> Manage parameters -> Enable "Profile". There you have a new parameter which you can fill out like "Tetuso 4:6". Regarding the statistics: Its hard to match the needs/wants and have it still possible for all users to use it. I'd be happy to exchange more thoughts about this, in best via e-mail: info@beanconqueror.com Also regarding the roast possibilities, there is less traffic about this, and thats why the roast-section doesn't get much attention right now. If you got any more questions or ideas, I'm happy if you reach out :) Have a great cup of coffee Lars
The best and most intuitive

Hey tzegin, thank you very much for the lovely feedback! Regarding the iCloud Sync: I know this is an often asked feature, after BeanConqueror is developed on my own on my spare time, I can't give any promises. Regarding the parameters of the color of the brew graph, I'd like to get more information about whats the need about this, if you like reach out to me via e-mail: info@beanconqueror.com Have a great cup of coffee Lars
Bitte Darkmode 🙏🏽
Vielen Dank für die tolle App!

Hallo Gafloix, vielen Herzlichen Dank für die tolle Bewertung! Mit dem heutigen Release 8.4.0 gibt es nun auch den Experimentellen Dark Mode. Ich freue mich über die Rückmeldung auch gerne via E-Mail: info@beanconqueror.com Hab eine tolle Tasse Kaffee Lars
One glaring feature missing
Response from developer
Hello Dnbnaaa, thank you for the feedback and the request of the sync. Thanks also that you've already read the explanation. BeanConqueror is currently just done by myself in my spare time so its hard to keep things and strings attached in all boundaries. I hope this feature will make it someday to production. Regarding for the iCloud-Drive export: You could try to use Apple-Automations, this has been already discussed in the BeanConqueror-Discord, maybe this could be a good solution? Have a great cup of coffee Lars
Best app for coffee enthusiasts by far.
Perfect Customisability
*Edit: Turns out my only wish was already part of the app, just needed to find the setting! Thanks Lars!
*My only wish is for there to be an option to leave a note for the next brew that pops up (or is pinned to the top) next time to leave messages like “everything the same, just pull 5g shorter” etc (or just give us the option to show comments in the home or brews tab)
Almost perfect. Just one major feature missing!
Update: I appreciate the response from the developer and as a developer myself completely understand the challenge. I was not aware the app was open source and would like to support the development of the app to potentially add the functionality I feel it needs.
In hindsight the app deserves 5 stars.
Incredible Useful App
Although a more detailed recipe section could be added, currently just using methods, the app itself is a joy to use.
Una maravilla de app. Y gratis.
Algunos detalles mejorables que se van arreglando.
Aún no traslada las imágenes cuando congelas un café que la tiene anexa. Cuando se archiva si que se conserva.
Tolle App, danke!

Hallo grillmannn, vielen Herzlichen Dank für das tolle Feedback. Eine Gerätesynchronisierung ist im Backlog, aber auch ein sehr großes Thema was sehr viele Themen flankiert, daher wird das noch eine gute Zeit dauern. Es gibt ein paar Möglichkeiten über NextCloud eine Automatisierung / Synchronisierung zu machen, ein manueller Import würde aber dennoch benötigt werden. Das Thema mit der Akku anzeige werden wir hoffentlich sukzessive einbauen können auch im Sinne eines angedachten Redesigns für Beanconqueror. Falls du weitere Fragen & Wünsche hast, melde dich sehr gerne über: info@beanconqueror.com Hab eine tolle Tasse Kaffee Lars
10/10
Perfecta
Really useful and lovely implemented
There is literally everything you need to track your shots. The most appealing feature for me is the possibility to link my shots with the roast graphs from my Aillio roaster.
Great App
Very impressive app
