Good Espresso is for anyone who wants to make delicious espresso at home. Track every variable and learn to dial in your technique until your favorite coffee shop is your kitchen.

Hey Product Hunt! When I bought an espresso machine, I did what most people probably do: used it in full auto mode. I loved that I could make espresso drinks at home, but eventually I started to wonder why the espresso at coffee shops tasted so much better than mine. How do you make really good espresso at home? Then I learned the secret: to get good espresso, you need to ditch auto mode and really dial in your machine for the specific beans you buy and your specific preferences. After watching some Youtube videos, I was ready to experiment, but I was overwhelmed! There were so many variables to track: grind setting, dose weight, yield weight, pre-infusion time, extraction time, holy moly! And you have to keep track of all this for every variety of beans you try! How on earth was I supposed to remember all this? So I did what nerds do: I built an app. Good Espresso is for anyone who wants to make delicious espresso at home. Every day when you make your espresso, you can log everything about your shot, from the beans to all the nerdiest variables like brew ratio. Take notes and photos, track your progress, and dial in your technique until your favorite coffee shop is the one in your own kitchen. If you're new to espresso making and have no clue what any of this means, no worries, there are some easy tips for beginners to get started. This app was a labor of love and I obsessed over every little detail purely for my own sake. I have no clue if anyone else will ever use it but I thought I'd share in case other espresso lovers find it useful. I even built a community page so we can all see each other's shots, share recipes, and learn together. Join me to geek out over great coffee!

@secondfret just started using on ios - really amazing job! recently got my first espresso machine - and need to practice. your app is perfect - the style is unique and engaging, and the logging functionality is just what you need. well done!!

@secondfret how do i “buy me coffee” for you?

@secondfret also - wonder if this is a pain point for others (that your community feature will help solve organically) - finding good beans: i went through several iterations with different varieties before i found a local roastery that i can’t get enough of. would be great to hit critical mass in the community- and make it easier to discover and maybe purchase beans in app

@secondfret have you shared yet on /r/espresso?

@neonwatty thank you so much! I really appreciate it. I’m not much of a redditor so I never thought to put it on there. Good idea!

I really find it very interesting, the technique is incredible in giving a good sensation, flavor and aroma to an excellent cup of coffee, besides being the best friend of freelancers. 😋 I wish you success! It's a great idea, very special. Greetings from Colombia, land of coffee. ☕️

Looks interesting. Congrats on the launch!
