Your coffee bags are too good to throw away. Every bag says something — the label, the story, the roaster's whole reason for being. Then the coffee's gone, and so is the bag, into the bin with the eggshells. beans keeps it: turn any bag into a keepsake 3D model and stand it on a shelf that's actually yours — one you'll want to look at. Doesn't matter whether you're timing a shot on a manual lever machine or you just really like your fancy pod machine. If you've ever looked at an empty bag and thought "I'm not putting that one in the bin" — beans is for you. SNAP A BAG, SKIP THE TYPING Photograph the front of a bag, then the back. beans reads the label on your phone with Apple's Vision and on-device intelligence, then looks up what the label doesn't say: roaster, origin, process, tasting notes. Nothing to fill in by hand. DIAL IN ONCE Log every shot or brew: dose, grind on your grinder's own scale, yield, time and temperature. Tell beans about your grinder and machine once, stepless or click, and it gives you a starting point for a new bag. Come back to a favourite weeks later and the recipe that worked is right there. A COACH FOR YOUR FIRST BREWS New to espresso or pour-over? A few short lessons cover the basics and end with a practice brew. After that, when a brew isn't right, beans helps you work out what to change next: finer or coarser for espresso, and for pour-over, what the taste is telling you. Switch it off whenever you like. A SHELF OF YOUR OWN BAGS, IN 3D Turn any bag into a 3D model before it's gone, and stand it on your shelf. Tap it and it lifts off the shelf into its own detail view. Arrange the shelf your way — it's a collection, not a spreadsheet. PAY ONCE, OR BY THE MONTH Pay by the month, or own beans for good with one payment. In your first 48 hours, lifetime comes with 3 free 3D credits. Making a 3D bag uses a 3D credit; each one costs real money to generate, so more come in packs of 1, 3 or 10 that never expire. Every 3D bag includes a free redo for 30 days. You may also be offered a yearly plan: its first year is paid up front at an introductory price, with a 3D credit each paid year. The monthly and yearly plans renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period. Manage or cancel them in your Apple Account settings. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy: https://humanmadethings.co.uk/beans-coffee/privacy/ MADE WITH CARE Light and dark, Dynamic Type, Reduce Motion and Increase Contrast are all respected. No account, no sign-in. Requires iOS 27. Bag lookups and 3D models need a connection; your bags and shots are stored on your phone.
