Dialed In is the shot logging companion built for home baristas who take their craft seriously. Whether you're dialing in a new bean or chasing a personal best, Dialed In tracks every variable that matters so you can pull better shots whether you’re learning or an experienced barista. **TRACK WHAT MATTERS** Log shot time, dose, yield, grind size, and notes alongside every shot. Each entry builds a complete picture of your technique over time. Use the in-app timer with a tap, or enter the time your machine already provides. Either way, your data is captured accurately and consistently. **KNOW YOUR EXTRACTION** Every shot is automatically labelled — Very Under, Slightly Under, Good, Slightly Over, or Very Over — based on your brew ratio or shot time. See at a glance what went wrong and what went right, without doing the math yourself. **SEE YOUR TRENDS** The trend charts lets you visualize extraction time, grind setting, and brew ratio across your recent shots. Spot the moment your dial-in clicked, or when an adjustment threw something off. **MANAGE YOUR BEANS** Keep a library of your coffees. Log shots against specific beans and see how each one performs as you work through a bag. **PREMIUM: iCLOUD BACKUP & CUSTOM FIELDS** Back up your shot history automatically to iCloud and restore it anytime. Add custom fields to capture anything your workflow requires — water temperature, crema color, acidity, specific flavors, or anything your heart desires. Dialed In is built for iOS and feels at home on your iPhone. No account required. No subscription needed to get started.

Dialed is the espresso tracker built for people serious about their shot. Log every variable, understand what went wrong, and make the exact right adjustment - every time. LOG WHAT MATTERS Record dose, yield, grind size, pull time, and temperature for every shot. Add tasting notes and a star rating. The full picture, in seconds. INSTANT EXTRACTION ANALYSIS Dialed doesn't just store your data - it reads it. After each shot, get an automatic diagnosis: balanced, under-extracted, over-extracted, channeling, weak, or concentrated. Then get a specific fix: "Grind 2–3 steps finer," "Target 36–40g yield," or "Check puck distribution." No guessing. No forum rabbit holes. Just the adjustment you need. VISUALIZE YOUR EXTRACTION An interactive extraction spectrum shows exactly where your shot landed relative to the ideal zone. Color-coded severity makes it instantly clear how far off you were and in which direction. YOUR BEAN LIBRARY Add your coffees with roaster, origin, roast date, and notes. Browse every shot you've pulled on a given bean. Know which beans you've mastered and which ones still need work. WEEKLY DASHBOARD See your daily shot counts over the past 7 days, today's average rating, and average pull time at a glance. Build a consistent practice, track it. Whether you're pulling your first espresso or your ten-thousandth, Dialed gives you the feedback loop to keep improving. Get dialed in.
