We are coffee people that wanted a better way to calculate extraction of our coffee's. Using modern tools & basic specs from our coffee's we are able to now measure the extraction & rely more on science in conjunction with taste in order to produce the best cup of coffee for ourselves and those we serve. We wanted to produce a beautiful design that helps represent the amount of work we put into our coffee which & our roasters put into sourcing & producing fantastic coffees. Why would I use this? Café's: Using quality roasters & quality beans isn't the only thing necessary in serving an awesome cup of coffee. Preparation & Brewing play an important role in a good cup of coffee. Our Optimal Coffee Extraction app will help you find out if you are inline with the SCA guidelines for perfect extraction. Roasters: Want to find perfect specs for your coffee's that you can give to your café? Finding the proper dose, time, & final output for espresso & filter coffee is a helpful thing to pass onto your café's and other wholesale clients to uphold proper quality standards. Things needed for this app to work: A Refractometer, either Atago or VST would work. Have feedback? Email us at [email protected]
Love interface, but...
every time I try to log a measurement, the app crashes and I lose the data. Calculations work. Edit: logging works now. Updated to 5 stars.

Sleek - Easy to use
As a former barista using this for my at home setup, it was exactly what I was looking for. It’s a clean, sleek app that’s easy to use and does exactly what it says it does. The dark mode is beautiful and my tired pre-coffee eyes appreciate it as well.
Gorgeous interface & useful tool
I am a coffee fanatic and coffee shop owner, my team and I use this app to help dial in our coffees especially when we have palette fatigue. It is always great to have this tool to make sure our coffees are properly extracted.
Beautiful & Accurate.
As the owner of a coffee shop, we dial in daily and being able to use this app simply & efficiently is awesome! And it is beautiful to boot. Highly recommend.
Updated review
Originally I called this app “okay “ with three stars. Here’s why I updated it to two stars- Latest update deleted all my notes/recipe details. New notes are not saved at all. The title punctuation bug still exists. Normally, I would delete/reinstall app in attempt to fix it but this would probably delete all my entries. Per developers response, I contacted them via email but never received a response back. I understand this app is put out by a small group of coffee aficionados and do appreciate efforts.This is why I gave it two stars, not one. The app still calculates coffee extraction easily, and is free to use, but its usefulness stops there, without notes. Fortunately I have hand written notes to rely on. If the developers fix the apps failings I will be glad to further update this review. (Original review) App gets the minimum of jobs done in a nicely simple way. I use the Atago unit at home and don’t need competitions equipment/app cost or seeming complexity. Please fix the punctuation bug and allow more room in “notes” area (also- notes should have option to be visible on startup page). Recipes should be able to be re-ordered on same main page.
The best coffee app and it’s free
Use this every day for dialing in at Eightfold Coffee. Such a great app and great customer service
