It’s crazy cool!

Great coffee app

Bean Book is great - easy to use, intuitive, and lots of features. And the developers are constantly updating and tweaking to add new features when requested. Highly recommended!

Keeps getting better and better

This app was already great when I first downloaded it a couple of months ago, but with these new updates is just gets better and better.

One thing I'd love to see, if possible, is the ability to simply long press the + or - button on the grinder settings option (in the Brew Log) to go up or down.

I have an Encore ESP Pro, and having to click the + button 225 times to get to 25.5 is a chore, lol!

Probably the best coffee app on the market

The developers are updating the app very quickly, and many features provide great insight into how specialty coffee lovers' workflow. Keep up the great work!

Best Coffee App out there

I tried all the most popular coffee apps and none compare to BeanBook. Many have too many options. Others not enough. Some are so convoluted it’s a chore to add them to your routine. Others don’t even offer a slot to add the variety or origin. BeanBook is the perfect app. It logs all the information about your beans effortlessly with AI and gives you a simple usable pour over guide that can easily be modified.

Genuinely worth it

My trial is almost up and I’m subscribing. Why? Because this app genuinely does what I want it to as a casual enthusiast coffee snob without me needing to input every detail of every variable. And look, I’m not the biggest AI fan but the way it’s able to pull in the right info (most of the time) when I scan a bag is impressive. I also love that they have been active at listening to user feedback and implementing new features at a steady clip. Really like the customizable resting timers. And the recently launched brew calculator is perfect for quick reference when I make odd sized batches. As someone with 8 bags or so on rotation at any given point in time, this app gives me the simplest way to pick a brew in the morning without fuss. Lastly, appreciate the fun and playful design of the app. Keep it up devs!

Great app

I have been using this application for about three months to track my speciality coffees. It is very intuitive, easy and fun to use. It has AI functionality that makes it easy to add beans without a lot of effort. The developer is very committed to updating and improving the application, lots of new features have been added over the time I have been using it

Response from developer

I'm so glad you said "Fun to use", this is what we are building for! It means a lot to hear that the app is making coffee tracking easier and more enjoyable. We’re a tiny team, so seeing feedback like this keeps us motivated to keep improving. Thanks for your support and have a great brew there in Australia!

Does not work

Every time I open the app, it freezes and closes. Very disappointing.

Doesn’t work on 17 Pro Max

Immediately crashed upon tapping “get started”, tried reinstalling it, same result, crashes every time.

Fantastic app

I am so glad I found this app. I'm a recent coffee devotee, and being able to keep track of my hits... and misses... is a huge help.

Having so many recipes and various brewing styles is great, too, as I have 14 different brewers now (I am a bit obsessive about my hobbies), and having recipes, and videos for all of them is amazing!

I even started using the AI feature for specific beans, asking for brew temperatures or grind size suggestions. I was quite sceptical of that particular feature, but I have to admit it's been right more often than not.

Response from developer

That’s amazing to hear! Thank you so much for taking the time to write this. 14 brewers(I only got 10) is honestly impressive 😄 You’re definitely deep in the coffee rabbit hole now. That’s exactly the kind of journey we hoped BeanBook could help with. Happy to hear the AI suggestions have been useful. I was skeptical about that part too at first, so it means a lot that it’s actually helping with temperatures and grind ideas in real brewing situations. Thanks again for the support!

Cool app

I absolutely love this app! It has become an essential part of my daily coffee routine. The design is clean, intuitive, and приятно пользоваться every day. It really helps me track and explore different coffees, making the whole experience more engaging and fun. You can feel the care and passion behind the development. Highly recommended for anyone who truly enjoys coffee and wants to dive deeper into the world of beans!

Amazing!

This app is coffee lovers dream!! Everything about it enhances my experience as a home brewer. After trying multiple apps to track my coffee, no other app offers what BeanBook has to offer. I am now a Pro Subscriber. To the development team: congratulations, thank you, and keep up the great work!!

The best

Best coffee bean organization

FINALLY! The coffee tracker I’ve been looking for.

I can’t say enough good things about the UI and flow of this app. My days of countless notes sections and endless YouTube recipe playlists, are behind me. Being able to organize my coffee purchases and recipes in one handy app is game changing. The dev team has been really responsive and I have high hopes for future updates, that I believe will elevate this app to the next level. Nice work, Eric and Rokey!! Keep grinding ;)

Лучшее приложение для ведения кофейного дневника

Отличное приложение. Я перепробовал много разных приложений, это — самое красивое, информативное и удобное

Надеюсь, что разработчики со временем добавят возможность добавлять конкретные дегустации, а не только коллекцию зерна: тогда это будет ультимативное приложение для кофейных энтузиастов

Response from developer

This means a lot, Thank you so much Aleksey. I’m really happy to hear BeanBook feels beautiful, useful, and easy to use, especially after you’ve tried many other apps. That’s exactly what I’m trying to build: something that feels enjoyable for coffee people, not just another spreadsheet. And yes — logging individual tastings/brews is definitely an important direction for BeanBook. I really appreciate you mentioning it, and I hope future updates will make the app even closer to the “ultimate” coffee journal you described.

Best Coffee app

This app is amazing. It does everything for you with a snap of a picture of the bag. It organizes everything like a file cabinet. They even have recipes!!

Coffee app that makes my brew difference

Just got into specialty coffee and this app makes it so easy to keep track coffee beans I’m trying. Especially love the coffee recipe feature, I think this is one of the best recipe app out there.

A coffee app feels magical & fun

I’ve tried a bunch of ways to keep track of my beans—notes app, spreadsheets, and a physical notebook(cut the label off)—but nothing really stuck. BeanBook just gets it. It feels magical to snap a bag, saves all the details. The design is huge bonus, just simply fun & enjoyable to use, not boring numbers

What I love most is how it helps me remember what worked and what didn’t for each coffee. No more guessing grind sizes or forgetting which beans I liked. If you’re into specialty coffee and want a simple, smart way to stay organized, this app is a no-brainer.

A Must-Have for Every Coffee Pro

As a specialty coffee professional, I’m constantly looking for tools that complement both the precision and passion behind what we do. BeanBook completely exceeded my expectations.
From the moment I opened the app, I was impressed by its intuitive interface and delightful design language. The use of coffee-inspired visual metaphors is not just charming, it makes the experience feel tailored for people who truly love the craft. It’s clear that the creators understand both great UX and great specialty coffee.
Functionally, the app strikes that rare balance: powerful yet simple. It helps me track beans, brew methods, roasts, and tasting notes with ease, and joy. It has become an integral part of my workflow, whether I’m dialing in a new single origin or curating a seasonal menu.
Highly recommend BeanBook to any barista, roaster, or coffee enthusiast who values not just utility, but also a bit of magic in their tools.
