## What is Cupsight?

Cupsight is the AI dial-in assistant that works with YOUR grinder. Scan a bag, get a recipe tuned to your gear, and make every cup better than the last.

SCAN YOUR COFFEE
Snap a photo of a coffee bag and Cupsight reads it for you: roaster, coffee name, origin, region, producer, altitude, variety, process, roast level, tasting notes and roast date.

KNOW YOUR ROAST
Photograph your beans and get an instant roast-color estimate, computed entirely on your device.

YOUR GEAR, YOUR NUMBERS
Add your grinders (with their real adjustment range), brewers (V60, AeroPress, espresso and more), kettles, scales and water recipes. Grind sizes are expressed in your grinder's own clicks: no more guessing.

SMART RECIPES
Get a complete recipe for each coffee: dose, ratio, grind setting, water temperature, bloom and timed pours, with an explanation of why. Recipes account for your coffee, your equipment, your water and your brewing history.

GUIDED BREWING
A step-by-step timer highlights each pour so you never miss a step.

BREW JOURNAL & DIAL-IN
Rate every brew (a score out of 10 plus acidity, bitterness, sweetness and body sliders). Cupsight learns from your notes and adjusts the next recipe, one clear change at a time.

SHARE RECIPES
Export and share your recipes with a tap.

PRIVACY
Your collection lives on your iPhone and in your iCloud Drive. No sign-up, no ads, no tracking across other apps. Usage measurement can be turned off in Settings.

CUPSIGHT PREMIUM
Your first five recommendations are included. After that, Cupsight Premium gives you unlimited recommendations and your detailed palate, with a monthly or yearly subscription that renews automatically unless cancelled in your App Store account.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.8.0 — 2026-10-25

The moka pot has its recipe: a level basket and cold water below the valve, weighed once per coffee, then two guided steps, on the heat and the steady stream.

For forty more grinders, the first plan gives the exact setting to dial, from the settings published for each model.

When you add a grinder, search only suggests grinders and machines with a built-in one, and flags what you already own.

Scanning a bag carries on if you step into another app for a moment.

Premium members wear a small caramel mark after their username.

Recipes shared by other members and the text on a coffee's page appear in the app's language, even when they were written in another one.

### 2.7.0 — 2026-10-22

Cupsight Premium is here, with a monthly or yearly subscription. Everything you do today stays free, and you get 5 free recommendations to start. Premium makes recommendations unlimited and opens the detailed analysis of your palate.

Once your free recommendations are used, Cupsight serves the plan you already followed for this coffee, or your recipe, as is.

In Stats, tap a number to see your origins, roasters and brewers ranked by favourites, over 3 months or a year.

A water is entered like its label (calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium) and its hardness is worked out for you. On the plan screen, a badge lets you switch water when you have several.

In Activity, each month has its own page: tap a day to see its brews.

If your kettle cannot set its temperature, Cupsight knows it from its model and your plans no longer mention it.

Each coffee's process is explained in plain sentences, with what it changes in the cup.

A recipe picked before brewing shows what changes since your last cup.

Twenty drawn avatars, ten of them new.

### 2.6.0 — 2026-10-12

On the plan screen, press and hold a figure to adjust it on the spot, and touch the brewer's or the grinder's name to switch.

After a rated cup, Cupsight changes one setting at a time and tells you why in one sentence.

When you let Cupsight choose the brewer, it keeps the one that already did this coffee very well. The plan also starts again from your best cup when the coffee has just passed its ideal window.

When you scan, everything that isn't the bag is removed from the photo. The original is kept.

With a French press, the starting recipe is served without pressing: the plunger goes down to just above the coffee. The Espro is still pressed gently.

Gear that Cupsight doesn't know can be saved as is: you choose its shape, and your plans follow your own grinder setting.

Resetting the timer, leaving a brew in progress or deleting a rated cup now asks for confirmation.

The V60 and Deep 27 are redrawn, and the Flower Dripper and Orea O1 now have their own drawings.

### 2.5.0 — 2026-10-02

When you correct the suggested grind yourself before starting, Cupsight remembers: after two coffees corrected in the same direction, the first plan for your next coffee starts from your setting.

If Cupsight can't write a plan, the recipe screen says so and lets you try again. When you're offline, the plan is written as soon as the connection is back.

The plan and the live brew now take up the whole screen, without the tab bar.

The setting range you enter for your grinder is kept when the catalog is updated. 1Zpresso Q and J grinders show the number you read on their ring, which counts backwards.

In Discover, the page of all coffees can be sorted by popularity, counted in people, or by date added.

Notifications about your recipes now only tell you when someone else saves one.

### 2.4.0 — 2026-09-29

If you have already made your cup, "Log it directly", under "Start", adds it and rates it in one go. The pencil adds a brew from the home screen as well as from a coffee's page.

Sharing a recipe or a brew sends a link whose preview shows the recipe itself, and an image that looks like the app's recipe page, with a photo of the bag. The page the link opens has the same layout as the app.

The journal is grouped by period: this week, this month, then the months before.

A brewer carries its size in its name, and the app recognises it from the photo when it can. The Comandante C40 now supports the Red Clix adjustment, and the Origami gets its own drawing.

If you photograph the back of a bag first, the app asks for the front and keeps the right photo. Bag photos that other people see no longer show the hand that held them.

Discover opens without waiting and loads as you scroll. You can report or hide another user's profile.
