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.
