Bloom vs Siléar Coffee

Bloom is a coffee timer and journal for your daily brewing routine. Keep track of your beans, follow step-by-step recipes, and remember what made each cup work. YOUR COFFEE SHELF Record roast dates, origins, tasting notes, purchase prices, and your rating of each coffee. Set the remaining weight for a part-used bag and compare its price per 100 g. Flavor Windows estimate freshness from roast type and age. SCAN AND REVIEW COFFEE BAGS Photograph multiple bags and several sides of each bag. Bloom processes labels on your device and prepares details for you to review and correct before saving. Scanning requires iOS 26 or later. Compatible devices with Apple Intelligence available use on-device AI; when the model is unavailable, supported systems use text recognition. On older iOS versions, add details manually. Scanning can miss or misread details, so check the result against your bag. GUIDED BREWING Create or import recipes, follow timed steps, and keep variants for your experiments. Start a brew from a coffee to carry that bag into the timer. Each grinder remembers its last setting, and you can choose a default grinder. JOURNAL AND INVENTORY Finishing a brew saves a journal entry and updates the coffee's remaining weight. Add your assessment now or later. Record taste, notes, dose, and output, then use Brew Coach suggestions to plan your next cup. Detailed cupping adds aroma and taste assessments, flavor tags, and a radar chart. ON IPAD See your shelf as a photo gallery and give any bag the whole page. Brew with a timer you can read from across the counter, keep recipes and your journal beside their details, and use a keyboard, pointer, Split View and Stage Manager. MAKE IT YOURS Track equipment and caffeine intake, choose a color palette in light or dark mode, and use Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets.

Silear is the coffee journal for people who take their coffee seriously - at home and out in the world. Most coffee apps track one or the other. Silear does both: log the beans you brew at your kitchen counter and the flat white you had at your favourite café - all in one elegant, fast, private journal. Your beans, dialled in: Build a library of every bag - roaster, origin, process, roast date and tasting notes. Track how fresh each bag is and how much you have left, so you never run out (or brew something past its best). Log every brew: Capture method, dose, yield, ratio, grind, time and a rating - with tasting notes and extraction yield. Spot what makes your best cup, and brew it again in one tap. Café Log: Out for coffee? Log the café, your order, a rating and a photo. Your whole coffee life in one place. Stats that actually mean something: See your brewing habit at a glance - total coffee used, favourite methods and roasters, top flavours, streaks and milestones - plus what you’re spending and your real cost per cup. Made to be a joy to use: Beautiful light & dark themes, SCA flavour-wheel tags, shareable brew & café cards, a home-screen widget for your current rotation, and 10 currencies.
