"With the tagline “social coffee tracking and sharing for antisocial people,” the free, web-based platform recently launched following about a year and a half of development by Needmore partners Ray and Kandace Brigleb, based in Portland, Oregon."
"Squarely designed for the coffee enthusiast crowd as opposed to professional cupping applications, the platform allows users to log a coffee, noting the roaster, place of origin, post-harvest processing method, coffee plant variety, brew method, recipe, flavor tags and an optional score."
"Users can decide whether the tasting stays private, as with a personal logbook, or feeds into a public database designed to grow over time into a coffee-discovery engine."
"“People were getting involved with the podcast and they were really excited about the coffees that we were covering, but we were kind of just pushing out our ideas; we never cupped the coffees,” Kandace said. “We started to think about how to make it more collaborative... For us, it's like taking the stories we are telling, but inviting everybody to be a part of it.”"
A free, web-based coffee tasting platform launched after about a year and a half of development by Needmore Designs partners Ray and Kandace Brigleb. The platform uses the tagline “social coffee tracking and sharing for antisocial people” and targets coffee enthusiasts rather than professional cupping use. Users can log coffees by recording roaster, origin, post-harvest processing, plant variety, brew method, recipe, flavor tags, and an optional score. Tastings can remain private like a personal logbook or be shared to a public database intended to grow into a coffee-discovery engine. The platform is positioned as a natural extension of the Unpacking Coffee podcast/video series, shifting from sharing design and branding stories to inviting broader participation in coffee tasting.
