Tea Explorer

Tea Explorer is a utility discovering new teas or for tracking and timing your tea sessions. It’s designed to take the guesswork out of brewing, whether you’re using a standard mug or a gaiwan.

All data is yours; no accounts, no tracking, and links are not sponsorship links, so no worries about my preferences impacting your experience!

Brewing & Timers

The app includes a database of Black, Green, Oolong, White, Herbal, and Yellow teas with suggested temperatures and steep times.

Dual Timers: Choose a standard timer for western brewing or a specialized Gong Fu timer for quick, successive infusions.

Custom Control: You can override any default to match your specific setup or preference.

Personal Journal & Custom Teas

Log your sessions to keep track of what worked and what didn't.

Data Logging: Record the exact temperature, time, and leaf-to-water ratio used.

Ratings: Give each cup a 5-star rating and add tasting notes.

Custom Collection: If you have a tea that isn't in our library, you can manually add your own blends or rare vintages.

Discovery & Recommendations

The app uses your logs to help you find more of what you like.

Daily Picks: Each day, the app suggests teas based on your previous ratings and preferences.

Flavor Matching: If you enjoy a specific tea, you can instantly see others in the library with similar flavor profiles (e.g., earthy, floral, or malty).

Smart Filtering: Search by tea type, caffeine level, or flavor notes.
