Love it!
A good app to explore your taste of coffee and learn how to prepare it with the step by step tutorials
Great idea with room for improvement
Would love to edit the scanned details of the coffee when they aren't correct. I would also appreciate a second note window for my exact grinding/brewing setting for each coffee. I'd like to select Weight in, Grind Setting, Time (Pre-Infusion setting as well), Shot Weight
I Wanted Coffee Recommendations, Not Just Beans.
I downloaded Siip expecting something a little different.
I thought I could tell it what I actually drink — things like Starbucks Caramel Macchiatos, how I prepare my coffee at home, whether I drink it hot or iced, how much milk or sweetness I like, etc. — and have it recommend a wide range of coffees and drinks that fit those preferences.
Instead, the experience feels much more focused on building a flavor profile and then recommending bags of coffee based on that profile.
That isn’t necessarily bad. If you’re already into specialty coffee, tasting notes, origins, processing methods, and exploring different bags of beans, I can see the appeal.
But for someone like me who thinks about coffee more in terms of the drink I’m actually making, it feels like something is missing.
I’d love to see Siip go beyond “here are some bags that match your flavor profile” and actually say things like:
☕ “You like Caramel Macchiatos, so try these coffees.”
🧊 “You prefer iced coffee, so these roasts will work well.”
🥛 “You add milk/cream, so look for these flavor profiles.”
🍯 “You like sweet, caramel-forward drinks, so here’s what I’d recommend.”
And ideally, let me explore recommendations based on how I drink coffee, not just what tasting notes are associated with the beans.
Right now, Siip feels more like a coffee discovery/tasting database than a personalized coffee concierge.
I like the idea — I just think it could be much more useful if it connected the coffee in the bag to the coffee in the cup.

I found the best coffee
I was skeptical to use Siip at first but it genuinely made my morning coffee routine so much better. It opened my eyes (and taste buds) by getting to try new blends from my OWN home for a good price. After that it helped me find the best matches! Delivery makes it simple. The app is also easy to use and I finally learned what type of coffee I actually like :)!!
Give this app a shot, you won’t regret it.

Excited about Coffee again
Honestly didn’t think I would get as excited for mail day, but now when I get a package and it’s my coffee subscription, it’s exciting to open it up and see what’s inside. Even in the middle of the day I feel like I have to rip open a bag, make a pour over and see what flavors I got this time. Plus when you scan the bag it gives you insights into what to expect. Excellent UI design and fun features, and they are almost implementing improvements. Great experience so far and already looking forward to next month’s choices.
