Kava vs DialedIn

• Easily create and tweak your favorite pour-over recipes • Use built-in timer for consistent brews

DialedIn is a shot log for people who treat espresso like an engineering problem. Log what went in, what came out, how long it ran, and how it tasted, and get one clear adjustment for the next pull. No account, no tracking. Everything lives on your device and in your private iCloud, and syncs across your iPhone, iPad, and Mac. A SHOT LOG BUILT FOR THE COUNTER Dose, yield, time, grind setting, taste tags, a star rating, and a note, captured in about twenty seconds while the cup is still warm. The live ratio updates as you type, next to your target so you know where to stop. TASTE TAGS AND ONE CLEAR ADJUSTMENT Tag the shot sour, bitter, balanced, fruity, harsh, watery, and more. The advisor reads taste first and the clock second, then makes one call: grind a step finer, a step coarser, open the yield, cut it, or change nothing. It tells you why, in plain words. BEAN BAGS WITH ROAST DATES Every bag keeps its roaster, roast date, and origin notes, with an honest freshness window: resting, peak, fading, past prime. You always know which bag deserves the next shot. BEST-SHOT RECALL Rate your shots and each bag remembers its best one: the exact dose, yield, time, and grind. One tap starts your next shot from that recipe, today or when you buy the same bean next year. A RATIO CALCULATOR THAT DOES THE MATH Pick a dose and a target ratio and DialedIn gives you the output weight to stop at. Classic 1:2, tight ristretto, long lungo, your call. TRENDS AN ENGINEER CAN READ Shot times charted against the 25 to 32 second window, brew ratio against your target, and your spread over the last ten shots. Watch the dots converge as a bag comes into focus. GEAR NOTES Machine temperatures, grinder zero point, baskets, water recipe, prep routine: the settings that make your results repeatable, kept next to the shots they produced. ON EVERY SCREEN YOU OWN DialedIn syncs across iPhone, iPad, and Mac with iCloud. The iPad layout puts the charts, the calculator, and the log side by side, a proper bench for dialing in. FREE VS LIFETIME Free includes 20 shots and 2 bean bags, with every tool: the advisor, the calculator, roast freshness, and best-shot recall. One lifetime purchase ($14.99 USD) unlocks unlimited shots and beans, the per-bean dial-in report PDF, and the full CSV export. No subscription, no account. Pull. Taste. Adjust. DialedIn remembers the rest.
