@xenjke Andrey, you're one of the first users of Coffeeopia and it's really great to see you with us for so long! Thank you!

Look, feel, polish and even the amount of data is impressive. On the question of data, I've added a review of a roast and created profile for one coffee shop. Are you relying on user submissions only or do you source it from other places? ?makers
Emil Bayazitov
@pavel_valkanov Thank you for the kind words Pavel. Re data, we check all incoming *new* information – be it coffee shop, coffee roast or a roaster – and manually amend information as per official public resources. We feel this will keep the quality up to our standard. Going further we're thinking of introducing community support in this process as well. Hope this helps!

I like the feature "Taste preference"!
Emil Bayazitov
@melnic404 that's something we really love as well – that's where the magic happens!

I totally get the idea. I like the look and feel, the easy setup and overall simplicity, though app is not polished enough (but it's OK for now). I see where this could evolve: personal journal, recommendations service, classic ecommerce. I checked your Facebook feed from about a year ago, Emil, and saw the existential self-debate about why there was no such app like Vivino or Untappd but for coffee (though there was, Bean Beast from 2012). I noticed you haven't found the answer, but proceeded to make Coffeeopia anyways. Do you have the answer by now? Are you going to spend 6 to 12 months from now just looking for that answer?
Emil Bayazitov
@niketas Hi Nikita! The existential debate is still there. We're not fully sure there should be Vivino / Untappd for coffee. What we're rather trying to become is the ecosystem for all coffee players on the market (think Android for coffee) that would benefit all parties: coffee lovers, roasters, coffee shops, farmers and importers eventually. The question is how we get there – Untappd for coffee is a solid first step. And yeah, the plan is to get to the answer in 6-12+ months from now
