The Nutra wrote:Hi Lars, can you help please?
I successfully upgraded to 6.1 on Android and used for a day or 2. Then somehow at app start I got a full white screen. I tried uninstall, reinstall. Loos the same. Can I either get a full clean status somehow or put my latest .json file to the right place to get back to normal? (I have USB access to the phone files and I have the exports.) Thanks. As workaround I moved to my iPhone instead but the screen to small there for my old eyes...

Hi Nutra,
I'm very sorry to hear this I've made an extra faq page for this (like I stated in my previous post): https://beanconqueror.com/faq

Please open a file tool and goto "Download" folder, and create here a new folder with the name "Beanconqueror_export", in this folder, please put your JSON file and your images.
After this you can go into the app -> settings -> import and choose the latest JSON file.
If you don't have your images exported and also put into the "Beanconqueror_export" folder, we have sadly no chance anymore because you've already uninstalled the application. There was a workaround I posted, but this just worked if the app was still installed.

Let me know if I can help you further.
You can also reach me via email: info@beanconqueror.com

Have a great day
Lars

Hi Lars,
I have something different problem. I have the export folder, the files are there as per your faq. The initial import after the upgrade was all OK, every data appeared in the app. But now when starting the app, I literary got a white screen, no menu, nothing. This remained even after uninstall, moving all files to a safe place, deleting any BC related folders (at least the ones I know) and then reinstall. I hope this better describes.
However, this seems to be a unique issue, so I better contact you in mail, not to OFF the topic.
BTW, with all the exported data, I still can nicely use the new version on my iPhone, so nothing lost. I just simply prefer my bigger Samsung Note screen and would like to get a real clean install showing the menu, so I can import all my current data.

Hey Nutra,

at first: Happy that you don't have data loss!
Please send me an e-mail: info@beanconqueror.com.
With this e-mail please attach me the .JSON-File which you are importing into your Samsung Note so I can have a look at it.
Thanks in advance
Lars

The app would deserve a bit more traffic here... I'm at 585 brews and love it.
Question: recently I bought an Acaia Lunar. What is the right mode to use for espresso brewing?
For bean I use the simple weight mode, but lost which is the good one for the actual brewing? I have a fix preinfusion and so far I measured from pump start, also adding the first drip and stopping at target weight.
I did not find any help for this. Is there any somewhere?
Thanks.

Hey The Nutra,
thanks for the feedback!
Actually just the normal weight + timer mode is good working on Beanconqueror, other modes like, detect first drip etc, is not working on Beanconqueror.
Hope that helps!

I just discovered the app over the Christmas holidays... and I'm extremely impressed.

Before, I was tracking espresso brews in a notebook. Works fine, but was unstructured and became a bit unorganized over time. Switched to the app now and it works really great: I record the brews and use it to look up my grinder adjustment for specific beans (single dosing). Dose and yield are read directly from my Lunar. The app seems to have a lot of options to configure. One potential additional feature that might be interesting (not 100% sure myself): I have to select the beans for every brew out of my list of beans. If I could add an RFID tag to the bag, putting the bag close to my phone would allow to automatically detect the beans. Downside: you have to attach and configure the tags.

Overall, a pleasure to use so far. Thanks to the developers!

Best wishes,
Bastian

Been using this for a year now. Such a great app.

My one quality of life suggestion would be to add a 'repeat last' button to the brews tab. Perhaps beside the 'add brew' plus button or as an optional replacement. Right now you need to tap on the three dots beside the last brew, then tap repeat.

It's a minor issue for sure, but I think a lot of people probably want to repeat the last brew to bring the settings over, then tweak as needed
