Clone before changing

CupTune keeps authored starters intact. A clone gets its own name and schema version, and remains in this browser until you export or delete it.

Questions before the next brew

Does CupTune upload my brew journal?

No. Recipes, timer state, bean details, measurements and notes stay in this browser unless you explicitly export a file.

Does CupTune decide whether coffee tastes correct?

No. It keeps measurements comparable and suggests one controlled change; taste remains your preference.

Can I use the tools offline?

After one successful load, the application shell and authored routes are cached. Advertising, analytics and email links can be unavailable without blocking the tools.

Why does extraction yield require TDS?

Extraction yield needs a measured dissolved-solids value. CupTune will not invent one from roast, colour, method or taste.
