CupTaster vs QUANTIFY CVA

Cupping (or cup-testing) is a coffee tasting method used in the coffee industry. It is performed all over the world according to uniform standards and specific protocols. The main purpose of cupping is to reveal the profile of the coffee. To achieve this, coffee is brewed in a universal way: ground coffee beans are placed in a glass, poured with hot water and left to steep undisturbed for four minutes. This method allows the coffee's flavor and aroma to fully develop. Cuppings are held at all stages of the coffee selection process, from the farm to the coffee shop. It is also an effective method for tasting and comparing several lots simultaneously. Baristas attend cuppings to gain insight into the potential of coffee beans and how to work better with a particular one. Those new to coffee attend cuppings to gain a deeper understanding of their preferences and to identify their preferred coffee origins. This is why we have developed a user-friendly and intuitive application with forms to fill in all characteristics according to world standards. It stores all the data so you can always go back and find something you like.

The "Quantify CVA" Coffee Value Assessment App is a digital tool built to perform quantitative coffee assessments using the official Coffee Value Assessment (CVA) system developed by the Specialty Coffee Association (SCA). It overcomes the limitations of traditional handwritten cupping forms and enables accurate, consistent, and data-driven evaluations that can be saved, shared, and analyzed anytime. "Quantify CVA" app was created as a joint venture between BP&Solution and ENTARO. Core Features 1. Creation Mode: Enables creation of customizable evaluation templates. Supports morphological evaluation, emotional evaluation, and combined evaluation templates, with configurable settings for country, variety, and processing method. 2. Assessment Mode: Allows inputting evaluations by category (aroma, aftertaste, acidity, sweetness, mouthfeel, overall impression) with automatic saving. 3. Analysis Mode: Performs statistical analysis and visualization of inputted data to identify quality trends. 4. Administrator Mode: Controls overall system operations: evaluator management, progress monitoring, and data integrity maintenance. 5. Conversion Mode: Converts app-generated templates into SCA (Specialty Coffee Association) CVA PDF forms.
