Your Shot Analysis Journey: From Data to Concrete Improvements
See how Coffee Rings guides you step-by-step to better shots:
Capture basic data
Choose your beans, planned drink (espresso, cappuccino, etc.), and roast level. If you've defined default values in settings, these are already preselected - perfect for those who always drink the same thing.
Add coffee details
Optional: Add more details about your coffee - blend information, roaster description, expected tasting notes, website link and price for future calculations.
Document brewing parameters
Now it gets concrete: Document temperature, dose, yield, extraction time, grind setting, and whether you used pre-infusion. Based on your basic data (Step 1), you get sensible starting values - lighter roasts need higher temperatures than dark ones, for example.
Rate the taste
Rate 5 taste aspects simply: acidity, bitterness, sweetness, body, and overall impression. Just three options per category: too little, balanced, too much. No complex tasting notes required.
Bonus: If everything shows green, you can save the recipe directly here. But even imperfect shots can be saved as recipes - some use these as starting points for further experiments.
Get concrete recommendations
Based on all your data, the knowledge base (or optionally AI) analyzes your shot and provides concrete recommendations. With the push of a button, these are transferred back to Step 3 - then simply brew again and see how the taste has improved.
