How the guide works

This mode adapts the pacing of the original recipe. Confirm each action; any remaining stage time counts down before the next step. It never assumes you have poured the target amount.

Keep this page open and your scale in view. Switching tabs pauses this mode; leaving clears the brew. Browser voice and sound may be unavailable or interrupted when your phone locks. Icons accompany English instructions.

Timing options
