Vurr: Espresso Companion

Stop guessing your grind. Start pulling better espresso.

Vurr: Espresso Companion launched on May 24, 2026 with 3 votes, #3,449 of 20,538 launches that month and more than 50% of that year's launches.

What it does

Vurr predicts your grind setting before you pull — using extraction physics, roast profile, bean freshness, and live weather data. Not AI. Not generic advice. Scan a coffee bag. Apple Vision reads the label on-device. The engine outputs a grind number with a confidence tier and a “Why?” breakdown showing exactly what moved it. Cold start on a new bag: drinkable range on pull 1 or 2 instead of pull 8. 49 grinders. 19 brands. 14-day free trial.

Food & Drink Developer Srinidhi Sudarsanam Language EN English Size 47.4 MB iPhone Vurr uses the science of espresso extraction — combined with your real shot data — to tell you exactly where to set your grinder before you pull. Whether you just got your first espresso machine or you’re deep into dialling in single origins on a dual boiler — Vurr takes the guesswork out of grind size and gives you a starting point you can actually trust. How it works Log your shots. Vurr’s suggestion engine analyses your results using extraction science and adapts grind recommendations to your specific machine, beans, and taste. The more you log, the sharper your suggestions get. Weather-aware suggestions…from apps.apple.com

    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.…

    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…

    A Digital Twin of my coffee roaster that runs in the browser2025 · autoroaster.com · ▲157

    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…

  • Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
