Brew Coach
Read full descriptionHide full description
A quiet coach for slow coffee. V60, Chemex, Kalita, AeroPress, French press, and overnight cold brew - each filter method with its own dedicated timer, ratio calculator, and step-by-step pour schedule. Built around the rituals that filter coffee deserves: V60 cones with a bloom and three pulse pours, Chemex with a slower drawdown, Kalita Wave flat-bottom for evenness, AeroPress with the right plunger pace, French press steeped to the second, and a 12 to 24 hour cold brew that lives on your Lock Screen until morning. Why home baristas choose this over a stack of browser tabs: - Apple Watch advances the next pour with a haptic tap when fingers are wet - Live Activity tracks the long cold brew steep on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island - Each method has its own ratio default, customizable to grams or ounces - Bean log remembers what worked: photo, roast, grind, water temp, tasting notes - iCloud sync keeps recipes and history across iPhone and Apple Watch - No signup, no account. Brewing, methods, Apple Watch and iCloud are free; one-time Lifetime unlock for bean log and custom recipes. Whether the morning is a single V60 by the window or the fridge is filling with a slow overnight cold brew, the timing stays tight and the ritual stays yours. Brew Coffee Timer & Recipe is available for iPhone and Apple Watch.

Verdict
The clearest difference is device support: Brew Coach at 3 against Coffee Library's 1. On price, ads, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
