iBean

A simple app which enables the user to keep track of some of the most important variables (or at least the most easy ones to control) for extracting espresso.

Focus for the app, design-wise, has been to keep it functional and easy - following Keep It Simple Stupid (KISS) approach.

iBean allows the user to;

* Create bean recipes/blends holding information like;
- Extraction time
- Coffee bean(s) - a recipe can contain several beans each having its own grind setting and amount
- Notes

* Experimenting with extraction time using a dedicated timer functionality

* Keep track of number of extractions (for fun or for triggering so called Thresholds)

* Create custom Thresholds that are triggered and notifies user when the number of extractions hits (or exceeds) the threshold's value - easy way to remember maintenence tasks!
- Example thresholds:
- Threshold named "Empty drip tray" having a threshold-value of X ((re)enabled every Xth extraction - recurring mode)
- Change waterfilter every 300th extraction
- Buy beans (recurring every 150 extractions)

The app is constructed from the requirements I've been extracting from my years of espresso extraction at home, so if You find that it lacks a feature that you would like to have then feel free to contact me through the support URL.

In short: An app that enables you to keep track of your extractions and lets you focus on the harder variables such as pressure, temperature etc.
