24 alternatives to A Minimalist Coffee Bean Rating System Built with Go and Htmx
Hey HN! After years of experiencing hit-or-miss coffee bean purchases, I built a simple solution to crowdsource coffee bean ratings. The problem is straightforward: buying new coffee beans is a gamble, and with rising prices, a bad bag is both disappointing and costly. The solution is a no-frills web app built with Go, HTMX, and Tailwind CSS. No accounts required, no JavaScript frameworks, just a simple 5-star rating system for coffee beans. Technical Stack: - Backend: Go - Frontend: HTMX + Tailwind CSS - No user accounts (intentionally) - Progressive web app I deliberately chose HTMX over a…

Hey all, I just wanted to share a project I've been working on for the past month. After years of heavy frameworks, I really like the idea of using htmx, but it’s a little too low level for me and needs a thin layer above it to facilitate things like components, better syntax with complex JS inside of an attribute, etc To try and solve this problem with a very minimal stack (golang + htmx) that I've been really enjoying, I'm building this project to cater to my needs and was thinking it would be useful for other developers.

It’s available on iOS now: https://itunes.apple.com/app/id6499280064 We got into specialty coffee during COVID and, like many others, fell deep down the rabbit hole. Along the way, we ran into the same frustrations: - A drawer full of empty coffee bags. - No simple way to track grind size, rest dates, notes—by bean. - My coffee history scattered across photos, screenshots, notebooks, and half-memories. - The unique traits, people, and stories behind each coffee disappearing from the internet once it sold out (since coffee is an agricultural good) - In our opinion, no…

Hi HN! I've been deep in the specialty coffee rabbit hole for a few years and built this tool to help me dial in espresso and pourover more systematically. *What it does:* • Extraction Compass – click where your shot lands (sour/bitter × weak/strong), get diagnosis and adjustments. It factors in your bean's origin, processing method, roast level, and variety. • Pourover recipes from Hoffmann, Rao, Hedrick, Kasuya (4:6) with step-by-step timer. Water amounts auto-calculate based on your dose. • Interactive WCR Flavor Wheel based on the World Coffee Research Sensory Lexicon 2.0.…

I built this website to host a data-driven model of my coffee sample roaster. I realized after 20 or so batches on the machine that while the controls are intuitive (heat, fan, and drum speeds), the physics can be unintuitive. I wanted to use my historical roast data to create and tune a model that I could use to do roast planning, control, and to help me build my own intuition for roasting. This website lets you interact with my roaster in a virtual, risk-free setting! The models are custom Machine Learning modules that honor roaster physics and bean physics (this is not…

I brew coffee and I buy a lot of beans. I’m also a lazy person that doesn’t want to type in all the details in one of the available apps and track things to the grams. Luckily I found out that GPT-4o (free tier) is good enough to take a few photos I uploaded of a bag and parse it’s roaster, varietal, origin, tasting notes, roast date, etc. I tried with a dozen different bags and it works pretty well - even when it makes mistakes I can correct them with natural language conversation, which I enjoyed. Then I had to figure out storage. I don’t want to rely on the chat history / context as…

Hey there! I realized I was compiling a list of coffee shops with highly curated reviews in my personal notes: chair comfort, Wi-Fi networks and passwords, internet speed, noise level, bathroom cleanliness, etc... It worked fine for me, but when I wanted to share my list to some friends I realized the underlying problem. So I created Workffee for two reasons: 1. To allow me to save my reviews in a more convenient way and share them. 2. To connect with others who are interested in this information, and who knows, maybe share a coffee and a work session together eventually. I hope you like my…
