Bean library
Origin, roast and process records with a rest-day tracker, so a bag is used at its best. Works offline, and the records stay on your device.

How to use / SOP
Purpose
Keep a structured record of every bean on hand — origin, roast, process — and know at a glance which bags are in their best flavor window.
Standard
General guidance: beans typically need about 5 days post-roast to finish degassing, are often best within roughly 3 weeks of roast date, and decline afterward — this varies by bean, roast level and packaging, so taste is the final judge.
Steps
- Log each bag as it arrives: name, origin, farm, altitude, density, roast level, moisture % and process.
- Set the roast date so the rest tracker can compute days since roast.
- Check the rest status before brewing a new bag — if it's still degassing, expect more crema/CO2 and less clarity.
- Use the comparison chart to spot bags that are unusually dry or wet relative to the rest of your stock.
Reading the result
"Still degassing" doesn't mean unusable — just expect a less settled shot. "Past typical peak" is a prompt to taste-check and rotate stock, not an automatic discard signal.
Notes
These are general specialty-coffee guidelines, not a food-safety rule — always taste-test before assuming a bag is bad.
Shortcuts
None.
