## What is Beany?

Stop guessing. Start dialing in.

Beany helps you brew better coffee, whether you're pulling an espresso shot, plunging a French press, hand-pouring a V60, or simmering moka on the stove. Log your brews, track your beans, and get real-time suggestions on what to adjust next.

EVERY BREW METHOD, YOUR WAY
Pick your method during setup: Espresso Machine, French Press, Pour Over, or Moka Pot. Beany tailors recipes, brewing steps, and parameters to match.

GUIDED DIAL-IN FLOW
Beany walks you through the dial-in process step by step. Rate your shot, tell us how it tastes, and get clear suggestions: grind finer, grind coarser, or keep your settings. No more guessing, just better espresso, shot after shot.

BREW TIMER WITH LIVE ACTIVITIES
Time your shots with a built-in timer that stays visible on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island. Never miss your target extraction time again.

TRACK YOUR BEANS
Add your coffee beans with origin, roast level, roast date, and bag size. Beany automatically calculates how much you have left based on your brews. Know exactly when it's time to reorder.

YOUR FAVORITE COFFEE DRINKS
Built-in recipes for Espresso, Americano, Cappuccino, Flat White, Cortado, Latte, Latte Macchiato, Lungo, Ristretto, Double Espresso, Long Black, Macchiato, and Black Coffee - each with method-aware defaults and step-by-step brewing instructions.

SAVE YOUR RECIPES
Found the perfect grind setting for your beans? Save it as a recipe. Track dose, ratio, brew time, and grind size so you can reproduce your best shots every time.

BREW CALENDAR
See your brewing history as a 68-day heatmap. Track your consistency, spot patterns, and stay motivated.

SMART ESPRESSO SUGGESTIONS
After each brew, Beany analyzes your shot rating, taste notes, and extraction time to suggest what to change. Too sour? Grind finer. Too bitter? Grind coarser. Perfectly balanced? Keep going.

SYNCED ACROSS DEVICES
Your beans, recipes, and brew history sync automatically via iCloud. Switch between iPhone and iPad without losing a single shot.

MADE FOR EVERY SKILL LEVEL
Choose your level during onboarding: Beginner, Hobby Barista, or Professional - and Beany adapts to you.
