If I were drinking coffee at the time, this line would have made me spit it out in a fit of unbelievable laughter:

"- In our opinion, no coffee tool really captures the flavor, emotion, and aesthetic of great coffee—from a design perspective."

What does it mean to capture emotion in a coffee tool from a design perspective? You can't make this stuff up! Actually, I guess you can.

But anyway, I'm sure this comment section will be full of exclamation points (!) about how exciting this is and good luck and can't wait and this is amazing and wow thank you's and so on. Carry on.

I think the "My Tasted Notes" section captures it, that is a really nice looking screen

Haha, fair enough! Totally see how that line might come across as a bit too “crafted.” What we meant is: many tools are great on data, but few feel fun, delightful, or reflect how expressive coffee culture really is.

But yep, emotions are tricky to “design for”—we’re trying anyway
