Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I'm Frank, and I built this after pulling one too many sour espresso shots and having no idea what to adjust.
The problem:
When I started with espresso, every "dial-in guide" felt like guesswork. Shot tastes sour? Could be grind, could be temp, could be dose, could be your beans, could be the weather apparently. I wanted something systematic.
The solution:
The Extraction Compass lets you click where your shot lands (sour + weak? bitter + strong?) and tells you exactly what to change first. The key insight: a washed Ethiopian light roast needs completely different handling than a natural Brazilian medium. So the tool adapts its recommendations based on your specific bean.
The Flavor Wheel:
I kept seeing "jasmine, bergamot, stone fruit" on fancy bags and thinking "cool, but how do I find MORE beans like this?" So I made the WCR Sensory Lexicon interactive. Click a flavor → see which origins, processes, and varieties produce it.
What's included:
- Extraction Compass for espresso & filter
- Ratio calculator with dose/yield lock
- Pourover recipes (Hoffmann, Rao, Kasuya 4:6) with timer
- Interactive WCR Flavor Wheel
- Database: 30+ origins, 60+ varieties, 20+ processing methods
Would love feedback – especially if you spot errors in the coffee data!
Thanks for checking it out ☕

Love the domain!

What is your GTM strategy? I think this could be very popular in coworkings and companies (not just only for cafés and restaurant) :)

@busmark_w_nika Great question, at the moment it’s very much a community-first approach.
I’m focusing on making something genuinely useful for home brewers and coffee people, and letting it spread organically.
That said, I love the idea of coworkings and teams using it as a shared coffee tool — especially places where coffee is part of the culture. Definitely something I’d love to explore further 🙂

Such a useful tool for all the coffee lovers out there! Nespresso won't match that!

@avloss Appreciate it! 😄
This one’s less about capsules, more about curiosity, dialing in, and great coffee.
Very cool! Could you make a similar project for tea? :) I don’t drink coffee, but I have 6–8 cups of tea a day.
Huge respect for the 'No account, No ads, Works offline' approach. 🫡 In an era where every calculator app wants my email and location, this feels incredibly refreshing and user-first.
Is this built as a PWA (Progressive Web App)? I’d love to 'install' this to my home screen and use it when I'm totally disconnected. Congrats on the launch, this is an instant bookmark for me.
Tastiest launch of the day!
Coffee is a full-on obsession in my house, so this site (especially the troubleshooting section) is an absolute delight.
