### 5/5 — Nice

*2026-03-27*

Good job

**Developer response:** In the latest update, I’ve made this flow clearer. When clicking the + button, it will prompt you to either log a shot or add a new bag of coffee. Please update your app and try again. Thanks for the feedback!

### 1/5 — Need more olivine

*2026-03-13*

Can’t add multiple coffee types. I want to track a decaf and a caf version but app only lets me log one coffee type

### 5/5 — Best Espresso Tracking App

*2026-02-15*

I’ve tried so many coffee apps to track, my espresso shots and coffee bean purchases and this one is by far the best one. The AI feedback is wonderful. The information is clear it’s visually appealing. It’s just really a great app. The only drawback is that it is not compatible with Bluetooth scales. I’m hoping in the future that’s a feature that will be added on. I wish I didn’t have to manually input that data that I could just connect it to my Bluetooth Acaia Lunar Scale and be done. That’s a feature I would be willing to pay on this app. It’s really that great!

### 5/5 — Good for beginners

*2025-12-29*

Was difficult when I first bought my breville bambino to know what a good shot of espresso looks like. Dial in helped a ton and now it’s fun to track all the coffee bags I get

### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-10-30*

Very useful for keeping track of my espresso stats. Thank you for building this!

A couple of small points of feedback:
- It would be nice if clicking on a different coffee on the main screen switched you over to that bag (versus pressing the 🔄 button and then selecting it)
- I’d love to see a more extensive history of shots for each coffee
- The coffee grinder setting is the main one I’m trying to dial in per-coffee. It would be nice to have an easy way to set it to the last used setting for a particular coffee (or the recommended setting based on the dialing in process).
- The dose is the one thing that’s easiest to keep constant so I’d love to not have to enter it each time.
- Very minor but since adding a shot is much much more frequent than adding another bag of coffee, I’d love it if the button at the bottom were just to log a new shot. Adding a new coffee could be next to the Your Coffees section.

### 5/5 — Just what I needed

*2025-06-27*

I used to do this on a janky note in my phone, but this is much better and has all the features I needed :)

### 5/5 — Great app for coffee roasters!

*2025-06-12*

If you are into roasting coffee, the app is amazing. The AI features are useful and not overbearing. Highly recommend this app.

Great app!
