Pour talks you through every pour. Press start and a calm voice calls each step as it happens: the bloom, every pour with its target weight, the waits and the drawdown. Your eyes stay on the kettle and the scale, not on your phone. GUIDED V60 TIMER • Spoken cues for every step, in three styles: Minimal, Normal or Coach • Target weight, pour time and pour speed for each pour • A clear countdown to the next pour, and the screen stays awake while you brew 15 CURATED RECIPES • Twelve V60 recipes, from a balanced everyday cup to the 4:6 method and competition-style pours • Three recipes for the Hario Switch • Every recipe shows dose, water, ratio, grind, temperature and total time SCALE ANY RECIPE • Change the coffee or the water and every pour target updates to keep the ratio • Pour remembers the dose you used last time A BREW JOURNAL THAT TEACHES YOU • Note how it drained, then taste: bright, sour, bitter or dry, with a short explanation of each • Rate the cup, and keep the coffee, grinder and grind setting with every brew • Pour suggests what to change next time, like grinding a little finer • Learn to taste: a short guide to what each flavor means for your next cup YOUR OWN RECIPES • Build a V60 recipe step by step and keep it for every brew POUR PRO Pour needs a Pour Pro subscription after the short welcome.
