I started with Onyx, Verve, now I bought beans from Prodial, DAK(eightounce), hydrangea & September etc


Let us know how it goes :D, btw the "single coffees" you mean the single origin coffee beans?


Thank you! Coffee is a very expressive fruit, so we think the coffee app should be as well :)


Vivino is a great benchmark!


Haha, based on you described, I'm in the same position as you were previously. I know its a lot of work, but also very satisfied! I'm very enjoying the process of making coffee, and also enjoy how people around me enjoy my coffee


Looking forward to your feedback! Good idea! and Collecting gears is on our roadmap. but each grinder setting also depends on the types of beans and brew method, we'll need good aount of data for the suggestion, thanks for the idea!


Thanks for point this, we highlighted lots of features from individual perspective. Because coffee is very personal


Full respect to Beanconqueror! It’s an amazing tool for advanced coffee folks: open source, extremely customizable and supporting Bluetooth gear like scales and refractometers. We admire what they’ve built.

We’re trying things from a different angle:

We’re building for entry to mid-level coffee lovers—people who want to enjoy better coffee, stay organized, and reflect on their brews.

Most tracking apps start with forms.We start with senses, we thinking a lot what coffee looks like in our mind.

What makes BeanBook different:

- Snap-first design: No typing required.

- YouTube/photo to recipe

- Sensory-first interface

- Zero-config start

We want to build a Coffee app as a memory, not just numbers

We think there’s room for both kinds of tools: Beanconqueror is like a cockpit for pros. BeanBook is more like a beautifully illustrated notebook that fills itself in as you brew.


Do you have to use ChatGPT for every response


We tried most of the mainstream models. Currently, we are choosing the Gemini. if you scan, you'll have a call for now, but we are building a new solution to optimize the workflow


I meant for your reply to every comment in this thread


Thanks so much for the honest feedback!

That’s super helpful—we hadn’t considered how the glare and text overlap could affect first impressions. We’ll rethink the first screen
