Will it work with my coffee and my setup?

If your bag shows origin, roast, and process, the AI reads it perfectly. That covers most specialty coffee from local roasters, subscription boxes, or direct-trade. Generic supermarket blends still work, the recipe is just less tailored. On gear: 20 grinders across Comandante, 1Zpresso, Timemore, Kinu, KINGrinder, and Hario, manual and electric, stepped and stepless. Don't see yours? Tell us and we'll add it within a week.

What happens if the first brew isn't great?

The first recipe is right for most people, most of the time. Think of it as skipping 3–4 rounds of trial and error. If it's not quite dialed, log the brew with a rating and two taps of feedback. The next recipe adjusts. No card on file, nothing to cancel, nothing to lose.

How is this different from every other coffee app?

Other apps give you a V60 recipe. Coffee Master gives you this V60 recipe, for this coffee, on your Comandante C40 at click 26. A natural Ethiopian and a washed Colombian get two different recipes. Different temp, different grind, different pour. The adaptation is the product.

When will my coffee actually taste better?

The next bag you brew. Scan takes under 10 seconds. The recipe is ready before your kettle hits temperature. Most beta users nail the cup on brew #1 or #2, and keep that recipe in their library for every re-purchase.

Yes. Open beta means no catch: unlimited scans, every brewing method, every grinder we support. No card, no timer, no trial. Download and brew.

Can I adjust the recipe?

Yes. Log each brew with a rating and notes. The AI uses your feedback to generate adjusted parameters for your next brew. You can also tweak any recipe manually.

Yes. Your coffee scans, recipes, and brew logs are yours. We don't sell your data. Everything is protected behind your account.

How many clicks on a Comandante C40 for V60?

For a V60, a Comandante C40 typically works well around 26–28 clicks, depending on the coffee. Light roasts need finer (closer to 26), dark roasts coarser (closer to 28). Coffee Master calculates the exact setting based on the specific bean you scan. Origin, roast, and process all affect the ideal grind.

What grind size should I use for AeroPress?

AeroPress grind size depends on your recipe. For a standard 2-minute brew on a Comandante C40, medium lands around 20–22 clicks. Inverted method with longer steep? Go a touch coarser (18–20 clicks). Every grinder has its own scale, so Coffee Master converts the recipe into the exact clicks for yours.

What's the difference between 'medium-fine' and exact grind clicks?

Terms like 'medium' mean different things on different grinders. A V60 grind on a Comandante C40 lands around 26–28 clicks depending on roast level. On a 1Zpresso JX-Pro the scale uses a Rotation.Number.Tick notation — completely different reading, same bean. Coffee Master translates every recipe into the exact setting for your specific grinder. No cross-referencing spreadsheets.

What brew methods does Coffee Master support?

Six methods: V60, AeroPress, Chemex, French Press, Espresso, and Moka Pot. Each recipe includes water ratio, temperature, grind size in exact clicks for your grinder, and step-by-step timing. The AI adjusts all parameters based on the specific coffee you scanned.

The coffee you waste dialing in

New bag.
Back to zero.

Every new bag starts from zero

You open a new $22 bag, pull out your recipe, and brew. It's off. You tweak grind, then temp, then ratio. Three or four brews in, it's finally dialed, and a third of the bag is gone before it tastes the way it should.

The recipe doesn't adapt to the bean

A natural Ethiopian wants lower heat and pulse pours. A washed Colombian wants more heat and a continuous spiral. But you've been pouring both at 93°C, same ratio, same technique. And then you blame the bag when it doesn't click.

"Medium-fine" is a shrug, not a setting

You Google "Comandante C40 medium-fine clicks" and find four different answers. Every bean means a new guess. Every guess means another brew wasted dialing it in.

You're not a bad brewer. You're starting from scratch every bag when you shouldn't have to. Here's the fix ↓

Three things your current recipe can't do.

Smart Scanning

Snap any bag. Local roaster, Tokyo souvenir, subscription box. The AI reads it in seconds.

Bean-Matched Recipes

Temperature, ratio, grind, and pour technique all shift when the bean shifts. Every recipe is one-of-one.

Exact Grind Clicks

No more "medium-fine." Your grinder. Your coffee. The exact click count. Every time.

From four brews to one. From generic to specific.

From "that was okay" to "I've never gotten strawberry before."

“Scanned my natural Yirgacheffe and the V60 recipe pulled out strawberry notes I'd never gotten before. First time I didn't tweak a thing.”
Alex R.Home brewer · V60 + Comandante C40First-try success, zero adjustments

“I used to brew every coffee at 93°C. Coffee Master dropped my natural to 88°C with pulse pours. Completely different cup. Now I trust the recipe more than my instinct.”
