About

Extraction

Features
Read full description

There is a moment in every espresso shot where everything aligns. The right dose, the right grind, the right time. Extraction is built for the people who chase that moment every morning. Designed for the home barista who takes their craft seriously, Extraction turns your daily ritual into a precision practice. Log every shot with a full-screen dial-in timer that guides you through pre-extraction, the sweet window, and the moment to stop. Watch the extraction arc sweep in real time and feel the haptic signal when you hit the perfect window. Every pull becomes data. Every session becomes understanding. Your bean library tracks every coffee you own, want, or have loved. Scan a bag with your camera and Extraction reads the label — roaster, origin, process, variety — and generates a personalised starting recipe using AI trained on specialty coffee knowledge. As thousands of shots are pulled across the community, those recipes get sharper. The confidence score on every recommendation tells you exactly how many real pulls back it up. Freshness is everything in specialty coffee. Extraction tracks your beans from order to archive — when they arrived, when they hit their peak window, how many shots you have left before the bag runs out. You will never run out of coffee unexpectedly again. Your equipment shapes every cup. Track your machines, grinders, and accessories, and over time Extraction shows you which combinations produce your best work. Your taste profile builds quietly in the background — learning your favourite origins, processes, and flavour attributes from the shots you rate highest. The analytics go deeper than any spreadsheet. Extraction time trends, rating patterns, coffee breakdowns, daily streaks, and an AI coaching insight updated weekly that reads your data and tells you the one thing most likely to improve your next shot. This is not a logging app. It is a practice. Extraction Pro unlocks unlimited shots, all brew methods including V60, Chemex, AeroPress, French press and more, AI bag scanning, full analytics history, bean lifecycle management, equipment performance intelligence, AI coaching, peak freshness alerts, cost per shot tracking, and data export. Begin with a 14 day free trial, no card required. Every shot. Every dial. Every morning. Terms of Use (EULA): https://extrctn.com/terms Privacy Policy: https://extrctn.com/privacy
