Gooseneck: Coffee Brew Timer

The countdown keeps running in the status bar and on the lock screen while you pour, and every step of the recipe comes up in order, with a sound and a vibration. Pay once, no subscription, no account. Gooseneck is a brew timer that does one job properly. Pick a recipe, say how much coffee you are using, put the phone down and pour. It tells you what to pour, how much, and when to wait, with a sound and a vibration at every step. The countdown keeps running when you leave the app or the screen goes dark. Guided from the first pour to the last drop Every step has a target and a countdown: bloom to 60 g, wait 35 seconds, pour to 120 g. You do not tap anything during the brew. The next step starts by itself and the app tells you with a sound and a vibration, so your hands stay on the kettle. A countdown you can see without opening the app On Android 16 and newer the brew is a Live Update: the countdown sits in a chip in the status bar and on the lock screen, with a progress bar split into your steps. On older Android versions it is a normal ongoing notification with the same countdown. Pause, skip a step or stop straight from the notification. Change the dose, the recipe follows Brewing 22 g today instead of 20? Change the grams of coffee and every pour target is recalculated, and the pours still add up to the total. Weights are always grams. Temperature is in degrees Celsius, or Fahrenheit if you switch it in Settings. Ten recipes to start with V60, AeroPress, French press, Chemex, Kalita Wave and Clever Dripper. Among them the 4:6 method, one-cup and two-cup V60, long-steep and inverted AeroPress, and other classic techniques, each with dose, water, temperature, grind and step by step timing. Your own recipes, properly editable Make a recipe from scratch or duplicate any built-in one and change it. Steps are bloom, pour, wait, swirl, stir, press and drawdown. Set the seconds, the grams and a note for each one, reorder them, delete them. Recipes you made stay exactly as you left them. Made to be used with wet hands Big buttons, a countdown you can read from across the counter, light and dark theme. English and Polish. What it costs Your first 10 brews are free, so you can brew with it properly before you decide. After that, one purchase, yours for good. No subscription, no renewal. If you never buy, you can still open, read, create and edit all your recipes. Only starting a new brew needs the purchase. A brew that is already running is never cut off. Your data stays with you No account, no ads, no analytics, no tracking. Your recipes are stored on your phone only. The app goes online for two things only: the Google Play purchase and checking Google Play for an update. Notes - Gooseneck asks for permission to show notifications the first time you start a brew. Without it the timer still runs in the app, but you will not see the countdown outside it. - On Android 16 and newer, the status bar chip can be switched off in system settings. Settings in Gooseneck shows whether it is on and takes you there. - Keep the screen on during a brew if you like, it is a setting. With the screen off the steps still arrive on time.
