Brewmaster

This app does help me to dial in, BUT I alerted the company months ago regarding a glitch where the app consistently adds 6 seconds to the total time on the spec sheet and no update has been released to fix it. I love both the Lunar and Pearl, but at $220 for an espresso scale, I expect accessory apps to be functional and be able to correctly log BASIC parameters. At this point, I'll be recommending the Brewista II scale.

This company just doesn’t care. The scale works well enough but man oh man, the app is a catastrophe. The developers are utterly unresponsive. Spend about 5 minutes with this bloated, pointless nonsense and I’ll buy you an espresso shot if you disagree.

Obviously this new version is more up to date, the app still have some room for improvement (some glitches are Inevitable) but so far it is good enough to log my daily brews. Also I must say their support team is really patient and helpful when walking through the problems I had, I’m glad that they keep improving their existing products and apps.

I use this app every day to track pour over and Espresso brewing for purposes of maintaining consistency and dialing in. Connects just fine, easily switches between numerous scales on the fly, custom names for scales, photos as well. Extremely helpful for pour over training. Being able to see flow rate in real time puts agitation into perspective for a lot of people right away.

There are few frustrating glitches in the app and it does take a moment to get use to it. But, ultimately, it just makes Brewing a bit more fun. I really enjoy being able to observe what is happening and record it to apply it to my next cup. I think my pour overs are getting better!
