Hatch Simple Cup

iPhone / Productivité

As coffee roasters, we cup and sample coffee frequently. And the go-to method has always been paper and pencil (which is fine!). But we wanted something portable, was on us all the time, and was simple and fast to allow us to move from cup to cup quickly.

We couldn't find an app that we liked. So... we built one!

It's barebones, but makes use of where the majority of your work probably resides - your email (which contains adequate storage, search and sharing capabilities).

App flow:

1) Setup your cupping table (up to 20 cups); we suggest giving it a name that would help you search later when you want to go back to see results; add your email (or save it in settings), or any email you'd like the results sent to (a CSV file is sent to your email with a breakdown of scores and notes)

2a) If you're blind cupping, you're ready to start
2b) If you'd like to name the cups, you can edit each cup profile (before, during or after cupping; so you can even cup blind first then add the details later)

3) Start tasting coffees, score, add notes; there's now an in-app timer

4) Review all coffees, 'favourite' the ones that you liked

5) Save (and send to email)

Quoi de neuf dans la dernière version ?

New Features!
- Cupping timer on the Summary Screen (know when to break after the initial pour)
- It's now possible to 'favourite' a coffee on the Summary Screen
- New Quick Fill option, to speed up the cupping process. Saved descriptors are available on each cup, so you can quickly tap them during a cupping session
- New landing page after cupping results are emailed (previously cuppers didn't know if the email was sent)
