Peaberry: Coffee Exam Prep

Peaberry prepares you for the SCA Coffee Skills Program and the Q Grader written exam. Every module is here at every level: Introduction to Coffee, Barista Skills, Brewing, Green Coffee, Roasting and Sensory Skills, at Foundation, Intermediate and Professional. A Home Barista route, without an exam, is for anyone who wants to make better coffee. Pick your course and the app builds a route through it: 197 lessons written for the published syllabi, 5,436 questions, 2,228 flashcards and 68 timed mock exams. MOCK EXAMS THAT MATCH THE PAPER Each mock uses the pass mark of its exam and the published question count and time where there is one; where a number is not published, the app says it is approximate. Mock questions stay out of practice until you have sat that mock, so the score means something. The report shows where you lost points, area by area. DECISIONS, NOT JUST FACTS 360 decision drills put you behind the bar and at the cupping table: diagnose an espresso, map a brew on the control chart, score a cupping, name an aroma, grade a green sample, read a roast curve and find the odd cup in a triangle. A calibration report shows how your readings lean. LABS YOU CAN TOUCH Brewing lab: drag a brew around the control chart and watch strength and extraction move. Roast lab: move turning point, yellowing, first crack and drop, and read development time. Cupping table: the protocol step by step with a break timer and the Coffee Value Assessment forms. Green coffee tray: find and count defects with a loupe, then grade the sample. Espresso bench, water lab, aroma shelf, flavor wheel, origin atlas, variety tree and calculators. Glossary: 621 terms. LESSONS BUILT ON SOURCES Every number in a lesson, a lab or a calculator links to its source. Descriptions are written in our own words. PRACTICE THAT ADAPTS Lesson checks, weak-area review and spaced-repetition cards (FSRS) bring back what you are about to forget. On the Bar, the carafe fills as you study, and your own control chart shows how much you have covered and how much you remember. A COFFEE JOURNAL Cupping records with photos, brew records with extraction worked out from TDS, PDF or text sharing, and a bag tag for every course you finish. MADE FOR DAILY STUDY Statistics, badges, bookmarks, reminders, Home Screen, Lock Screen and StandBy widgets, a Control Center control, Shortcuts, and Live Activities for the mock timer and the cupping break. Search finds lessons, terms, defects, aromas and origins in any spelling. English and Turkish interface. Study content stays in English, the language of the exams. In Turkish, every lesson opens with a Turkish summary, terms can be tapped for their Turkish equivalent, and the drills, glossary and labs are in Turkish. Works offline.
