Pour the water, listen to the bloom, wait. Pour-over coffee asks for your attention, and Brewed is built to keep you company for those three minutes without stealing the show. Open the app, pick your brewer, pick your recipe. Scale on one side, kettle on the other, the phone tells you only what you need to know right now: how much water to pour, when to stop, how long until the next step. The timer keeps running even when you set the phone down, and a Live Activity on the Lock Screen keeps track of your brew while you reach for the cup. Inside Brewed you'll find five pour-over brewers: Hario V60, Kalita Wave, Chemex, Origami and Hario Switch. Each one comes with a small library of recipes: time-tested classics like the Rao Method, Tetsu Kasuya's 4:6 and the April Brew Guide, sitting alongside newer techniques built specifically for Switch and Origami. Every recipe is dialed in for ratio, grind and timing, so the first time you brew it you already know where to look when you want to push it further. And once the coffee is in the cup, the Journal remembers it for you: every brew lands on a calendar heatmap, with its parameters, grind and tasting notes. Page through the months, reopen a session, and if you forget to log one you can backfill it on the right day. When you feel like understanding what's in the cup, there's the Learn section. Origins and processing, roasting, grinding, and a glossary for the day someone drops "bypass" or "TDS" into the conversation and you want to actually know what they're talking about. Available in five languages. No account, no ads, no tracking. Brewed lives on your phone and does one thing: it helps you make better coffee.

Coffee Brewing ist dein persönliches Rezeptbuch für Kaffeegetränke – mit einer interaktiven Zubereitungsanleitung, die dich Schritt für Schritt durch jedes Rezept führt. **Sofort startklar** Coffee Brewing kommt mit 9 sorgfältig ausgewählten Rezepten für unterschiedlichste Zubereitungsarten – von V60 und Chemex über French Press, AeroPress und Moka Pot bis zu Cold Brew und Kaffee-Cocktails wie Espresso Tonic. Perfekt zum sofortigen Ausprobieren, bevor du eigene Rezepte anlegst. **Rezepte mit Präzision** Lege eigene Rezepte an – mit genauen Mengenangaben für Zutaten, individuellen Zubereitungsschritten und optionaler Zieltemperatur. Für jede Zutat wählst du die passende Einheit (Gewicht, Volumen, Stück). **Mengen dynamisch anpassen** Machst du zwei Tassen statt einer? Ein Tipp genügt, um alle Zutaten proportional zu skalieren. Passe auch nur eine einzelne Menge an (z.B. die Wassermenge) – alle anderen Zutaten rechnen sich automatisch mit. **Live-Zubereitung mit Timer** Starte die Stoppuhr und lass dich durch dein Rezept führen: Coffee Brewing zeigt dir automatisch zum richtigen Zeitpunkt den nächsten Schritt an – inklusive Zielmenge, Countdown und Fortschrittsanzeige. **Alles individuell anpassbar** Definiere eigene Getränkekategorien und Zubereitungsschritt-Typen mit selbst gewähltem Icon – über die eingebauten Standards (Filterkaffee, Espresso, French Press, Aufgießen, Brühen u.v.m.) hinaus. **Mehrsprachig** Coffee Brewing ist auf Deutsch, Englisch und Französisch verfügbar – unabhängig von der Systemsprache deines Geräts umschaltbar. **Passe das Aussehen an** Wähle ein dezentes Hintergrundbild für den Hauptbildschirm – aus mehreren Motiven oder einem eigenen Foto – und entscheide dich zwischen hellem Modus, dunklem Modus oder der Systemeinstellung deines Geräts. **Deine Daten bleiben bei dir** Coffee Brewing funktioniert komplett offline. Es werden keinerlei Daten gesammelt oder übertragen – alle Rezepte bleiben ausschließlich auf deinem Gerät.
