ProvatoExplore the appCoffee journal app for iPhone
Provato is a private coffee diary for cafe visits and bags of beans. Capture the origin, roaster, brew method, rating, and repeat-purchase notes while the cup is still fresh.
Log a specialty coffee bean or cafe as an item, then preserve each brew or visit as its own entry. Use custom fields for origin, producer, process, roast date, grinder setting, brew method, and recipe. Add a rating, tasting notes, price paid, and a simple answer to the useful question: would you buy it again?
Track roaster, origin, variety, process, roast level, and the shop where you bought the bag.
Compare espresso, pour-over, AeroPress, or batch brew without losing the context of each cup.
Remember the drink, neighborhood, seat, price, and whether a cafe is worth another visit.
Keep each bag or visit in its own log so a great first brew and a disappointing later one both stay visible.
