The coffee journal you'll actually keep.
Every brew, remembered: the beans, the dose, the grind, the time, and how it tasted. Filtru is a coffee tracker that fills itself in while you brew.
Available for iPhone and iPad. Free to download.
Why track your coffee at all?
Because the best cup you ever made is useless if you can't remember how you made it.
Great coffee is mostly repetition with small, deliberate changes. The recipe, the grind setting, the ratio, the water temperature, the tasting notes: when they live in your head, they blur together by Thursday. When they live in a coffee log, improvement stops being luck.
I've kept mine in Filtru since 2016. Ten years of brews later, I can tell you exactly which Ethiopian I loved two springs ago and how I brewed it. That's the whole point.
A coffee log that writes itself.
Most coffee tracking apps hand you a form. Filtru hands you a timer. Brew with a guided recipe and the log fills in as you go: method, recipe, dose, brew time, all captured. Connect a supported Bluetooth scale and it goes further, recording real poured weight, yield, and a graph of the whole brew without you typing a thing.
Add what only you know, and it takes seconds: a rating, tasting notes, what you'd change. Scan the coffee bag and the beans file themselves too.
Everything is searchable. Beans, roasters, recipes, ratios, notes. The coffee you loved never disappears into the recycling with the bag.
The answer is YES
Looking for a coffee journal app? These all have the same answer:
-
Can I log every brew with beans, dose, grind, and time? Yes
Yes. Every brew gets a journal entry with the beans, method, dose, grind, and brew time, filled in automatically when you brew with a guided recipe.
-
Can Filtru fill in the log automatically while I brew? Yes
Yes. Brewing with a guided recipe records the method, recipe, and timing by itself, and a supported Bluetooth scale adds real poured weight, yield, and a brew graph with no typing.
-
Can I keep tasting notes and ratings? Yes
Yes. Add a rating, tasting notes, and what you'd change in seconds; they stay attached to the brew and the bean.
-
Can I search my whole brewing history? Yes
Yes. Beans, roasters, recipes, ratios, and notes are all searchable, so the coffee you loved never disappears with the bag.
-
Does it track espresso shots too? Yes
Yes. Filtru records dose, yield, shot time, and taste for every espresso shot, so you can dial in one change at a time.
-
Is the journal free to start? Yes
Yes. Filtru is free to download for iPhone and iPad, and the journal works with the gear you already own.
Keep going.
