Dialin Espresso Journal
Read full descriptionHide full description
Dialin is the espresso journal that doesn't just record your shots, it tells you the next move. Log dose, grind, yield, and shot time in seconds, tap how it tasted, and Dialin's offline Dial-In Coach reads your last pull and recommends exactly ONE change for your next shot: grind a touch finer, drop the dose, stretch the ratio. No guessing, no wasted beans, no AI black box, just the same cause-and-effect logic baristas use, working entirely on your iPhone. Every bag of beans gets its own page with roast date and a freshness window, so when a coffee peaks at day 10 you know it. Your shot history rolls up into clean charts: extraction time trend, grind progression, ratio vs. rating, and taste score by days off roast, so you can see your dial-in converge instead of flailing. Build a roaster and grinder library once and reuse it. Capture a latte-art photo. Star your house recipe so you can rebuild it in one tap when you reopen a familiar bag. Dialin is fully offline and private. No account, no cloud, no subscription nagging. Unlock unlimited beans and the full chart suite once and own it forever. Stop pulling the same sour shot twice. Download Dialin and dial in faster. Made by All Things AI โ a small team that builds the tools and apps we wish existed. Questions or feedback?
