Bean On Bar September

Beans

Find beans that are
worth tasting.

The app helps with the bag in your hand. The feed helps with the next bag: country-scoped listings gathered from roasters' own pages, with source links and visible context.

Two coffee bags standing on a cafe bar with a cup between them, Finca Chuquiago Bolivia and Corazon de Jesus Costa Rica, and a printed lot card in front
Beans on bar, literally. Finca Chuquiago, Bolivia and Corazon de Jesus, Costa Rica — producer, varietal, notes and process printed on the bag and repeated on the card. Both will be gone from this shelf before the month is.
A retail shelf of Blackup Coffee bags in Busan, with a price card reading 13,000 won and a QR code
Nero blend, 200 g, 13,000₩, Busan. Roaster, blend, weight, price and a scannable source — printed on a card, and already more than most listings give you.

How the feed works

Gathered, reviewed,
and linked back.

Listings are crawled from configured roasters and cafes on a slow cadence, reviewed before publication, and always linked to their source.

Source links, always

Every listing points at the roaster's own page. Confirm availability there before travelling — shelves move faster than crawlers.

Context, not verdicts

A Context Score reads what the listing discloses. It is not a rating of the coffee, and it never pretends to be.

Recognition belongs to whoever awarded it

Editorial lists appear as attributed highlights linking to their source. Bean On Bar adds nothing to them.

Browsing beans on bar in Singapore: 87 of 100 coffees, a Daily Espresso from 20grams Coffee Roastery at 25 dollars, Ethiopia SL28 Heirloom washed, well documented 60, available six hours ago
Eighty-seven listings on bar in Singapore the day this was taken — what the feed has indexed, not a census of the city. Price, origin, variety, process, and when the listing was last seen, each one linked back to the roaster’s own page.
Worth a look, on bar in Japan: a Colombia El Origen Pink Bourbon Thermal Shock Washed from LiLo Coffee Roasters, and beans matched to washed coffees the reader rates 4.2 stars across four cups
Somewhere else, the same feed. Matches are made on process, origin, variety and roast you already rate well — and the app says plainly that it has not tasted them.

Price

Compared against
your own shelf.

Price per gram is measured against your own saved history, in your own currency. No community average, no leaderboard, no number that needs other people to exist.

Two shelves of coffee bags with price cards
Two shelves, one shop. What counts as expensive here is a different question from what counts as expensive at home.
A cup and glass carafe on a counter, with a wall of coffee bags behind
The bag you are drinking is on the wall behind you. Somebody chose it — the feed tells you who, and links to what they said about it.

A listing is not a Bean On Bar rating, and shops move, close, and change. Confirm before travelling.
