## What is Cafe46?

Cafe46 is a precision timer for the 4:6 pour-over method.

Created by Tetsu Kasuya, 2016 World Brewers Cup Champion, the 4:6 Method divides your pour into two phases — the first 40% shapes flavor, the last 60% controls strength — making great coffee accessible to everyone.

FEATURES
· Automatic step-by-step timer — just focus on pouring
· Flavor control: Sweet, Balanced, or Bright
· Strength control: Strong, Medium, or Light
· Customizable pour amounts and wait times
· Sound and haptic alerts — no need to watch the screen
· Dark mode support
· Traditional Chinese & English interface

No barista skills required. Just follow the steps and brew with confidence, every time.
