Coffee Brewing Record App

BrewLog — A personal coffee brewing log app that helps home brewers track, refine, and improve their brewing process.

BrewLog is a personal coffee brewing log app designed for home brewers who want to consistently improve their coffee quality by recording, reviewing, and refining their brewing process. The app allows users to log brewing parameters, track taste outcomes, and build a personal coffee knowledge base over time.

Problem Statement

Home coffee brewers often struggle to:

  • Remember past brew settings that worked well

  • Compare different brewing attempts objectively

  • Build consistent brewing habits over time

Existing solutions are either too complex, too manual, or not tailored to daily brewing routines.

Target Users

  • Home coffee brewers

  • Coffee enthusiasts exploring pour-over / espresso

  • Users who enjoy experimenting with ratios, grind size, and brew time


Design Goals

  • Make brew logging fast and frictionless

  • Turn subjective taste notes into structured data

  • Encourage reflection and iteration after each brew

  • Keep the interface minimal and coffee-focused

UX & Technical Approach

  • UX-first structure: define what data matters before UI styling

  • Schema-driven design: database structure informed screen layout

  • AI-assisted development:

    • Used AI to scaffold backend logic

    • Generated frontend integration prompts

    • Rapid iteration and debugging with AI support


This project demonstrates my ability to:

Design → Validate → Build → Iterate quickly in a real-world setup
