Brote - Coffee Brew Journal
Brote is a native iOS app built for specialty coffee enthusiasts who want to brew better, one cup at a time. No accounts, no cloud — just a clean, focused journal that lives entirely on your device.
Track Every Brew
Log dose, water, temperature, grind size, and brew time with ratios calculated automatically. Rate each cup, add tasting notes, and attach photos so you always know what worked.
Build Your Bean Library
Keep a complete record of every bean you buy. Store roaster, origin, region, producer, roast level, processing method, and roast date — everything you need to brew it right next time.
Organize Your Setup
Save your grinders and brew methods so logging stays fast. Build custom methods for any setup, from pourover to espresso to whatever you've rigged up.
Dial In Over Time
Browse your brew history grouped by date, track average ratings per bean, and revisit past recipes to repeat your best cups.
Built for Apple Devices
Fully native, designed for iPhone. Built for iOS 26 with Liquid Glass. No feature bloat, no compromises — just an app that feels like it belongs on your device. Dark and light mode supported.

Rest reminders, reworked
- Set a reminder by how long the beans should rest instead of picking a calendar date — the reminder date is worked out from the roast date for you.
- Common rest periods are one-tap shortcuts in a swipeable week carousel; a stepper handles anything in between.
- No upper limit — beans of any age can get a reminder.
- Frozen beans pause resting — the reminder is unavailable while frozen, and explained on screen.
Filter and browse your brews
- Filter the brews list by bean, with a per-bean brew count. Appears once you have brews across more than one bean.
- A bean's page now shows its full brew history — tap any brew to open it.
Fixes
- Editing or duplicating a bean while choosing one for a new brew no longer opens a blank screen.
- Brews logged before an earlier update show their days-off-roast again instead of a dash.
