ShotPulled

ShotPulled is a brewing log and dial-in assistant for home espresso. You record each shot you pull, and it suggests one change to try on the next one.

Register your coffee, grinder, espresso machine, and scale. After each shot, log the dose, yield, brew time, and how it tasted. ShotPulled reads the shot together with the coffee’s age and your grinder setting, then gives the likely causes in ranked order and one adjustment to try next, with the reasoning behind it.

It tracks your coffee. Each logged dose is deducted from the bag, so you can see the grams remaining, an estimate of the shots left at the dose you use, and where the bag is in its rest and peak window. Coffees and bags are separate records: register a coffee once, then each bag you buy of it, and your recipes and notes stay with the coffee.

It tracks equipment maintenance. ShotPulled holds maintenance information researched for 190 grinder and espresso machine models, drawn from the manufacturers’ manuals where available, for tasks such as descaling, backflushing, burr cleaning and water filters. Ask what is due, log a task when you do it, set your own intervals, and read step-by-step guides where one exists for your model. A task the maker advises against is not listed as due.

When a recipe works, lock it and look it up later. ShotPulled handles grinder settings given as clicks, numbered collars, compound ring positions such as 1.2.2, and named settings, and includes specifications for 66 grinders, 124 espresso machines, and 17 scales.

What you record here is saved to your ShotPulled account, which the ShotPulled web dashboard and iPhone app also use.
