Dialed

A great cup is worth remembering. Dialed is your coffee recipe logbook and brewing companion for iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch. Save espresso and pour-over recipes, brew with a little guidance, and return to what worked. POUR OVER, STEP BY STEP Build your recipe, then brew along with live cumulative water targets, step timers, and haptic cues. Move automatically through bloom, pour, wait, and drawdown at your saved pace. Pause when you need to, then pick up where you left off. ESPRESSO, YOUR WAY Keep the dose, yield, shot time, and grinder setting that worked. Add water temperature, pressure, and pre-infusion when you want the full picture, with the machine and grinder behind each recipe close at hand. BREW FROM YOUR WRIST Open a recent recipe on Apple Watch, or send one from your iPhone. Get ready, then follow live pour-over water targets and step timers, or time your espresso extraction. Haptic cues help you follow the brew without reaching for your phone. FOLLOW EVERY COFFEE Keep each bag and its recipes together. Explore the same coffee as espresso or pour over, rate your recipes, and refine your next cup. Adjust pour-over water amounts and durations to make each step your own. BUILT AROUND YOUR GRINDER Save your grinders and choose a favorite. Dialed adapts recipe entry to their setting style, from steps and clicks to a stepless dial, time, or weight. Add your espresso machines for recipes that use them. FIND WHAT WORKED Search your logbook by coffee or roaster, and filter by brewing method, gear, or recipe measurements to return to a favorite. A LITTLE HELP, ON DEVICE On supported devices, read a coffee bag with your camera or a photo to suggest its name and roaster. For espresso recipes, on-device insights can suggest adjustments based on your recipe, rating, and follow-up answers. Intelligence features depend on device availability; you can always enter recipes manually. YOUR LOGBOOK, CLOSE AT HAND Dialed stores your recipes locally and syncs through iCloud when available. There is no separate Dialed account to create. From the first bloom to your next espresso, make a cup worth repeating.
