About CoffeeLog: Brew Journal
CoffeeLog is a personal journal for everyone who wants to remember the coffees they drink and understand what they actually enjoy. YOUR COFFEE COLLECTION Every bag you try goes into your collection — roaster, origin, region, process, varietal, altitude, roast level, flavor notes and more. Over time your collection becomes a record of your taste: the origins you return to, the processes that click with you, the roasters worth following. LOG EVERY BREW Pair each coffee with your brew notes. Record the method, recipe, water temperature, grind size and your personal rating. When you find a combination that works, it's there to repeat. When something falls flat, you'll know why. EFFORTLESS TO ADD Point your camera at a coffee bag label and CoffeeLog reads it for you — filling in the details automatically so you can spend less time typing and more time drinking. Review, confirm, and it's in your collection. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your journal lives on your device. No account to create, no subscription, no data sent anywhere. If you want to access your collection on another Apple device, optional iCloud sync moves everything through your own iCloud account — nobody else sees it. • Personal coffee collection with full bag details • Brew sessions with recipe, method and rating • Scan bag labels to add coffees without typing • Rate and add tasting notes to track what you enjoy • Insights into your taste over time • Optional iCloud sync — your data, your account • No account, no subscription, no ads
What’s new
Version 1.4 · Updated September 30, 2026
A Fresh New Look The bottom navigation has been redesigned. It's slimmer and sits lower, and your content now rests on a rounded sheet above it, giving every screen more room for your coffees and brews. New Achievements Four new achievements join your Taste Analytics page: Curator for the roasters you've tried, Sommelier for the flavor notes you've tasted, Cartographer for the regions you've explored, and Homecoming for a coffee roasted in a country it was grown in. They count your existing journal, so some may already be unlocked. Richer Flavor Wheel 33 new tasting notes that roasters often use but the SCA wheel leaves out, like Guava, Kiwi, Plum, Passion Fruit, Macadamia and Rum. They're searchable in every supported language and recognized when you scan a label. Count by Month, Year or All Time Tap the coffee count on your Taste Analytics page to switch between this month, this year and all time. Plus bug fixes and stability improvements.
