Even more customization options. Cupping sheets presented the way you want them.

Cropster Cup has always included cupping sheets from green buying to production, from cupping espresso to filter coffee and more. With this release, Cup’s personalized sheets now support rich interfaces to further support your specific needs. You can capture what’s important to you and critically how you want to track those aspects. For example, want to track body and use a 0-6 scale with 2 step increments using a nice and easy to move slider? You can do that. Do you prefer a 1-3 instead? Want to capture yield? Add a numeric box to the weight. 

Old vs. new – All cupping sheets feature the looks and interactivity of the SCA sheet

This latest version of Cropster Cup supports all the innovations of the SCA sheet, the looks and interactivity that people love and let’s you use them the way you want. We understand that sliders allow you to enter your data more quickly and accurately on your phone. Prefer a drop down input? We can do that. Basically, it’s all up to you. Just let us know how you’d like your customized cupping sheet to look. Sliders, dropdowns, checkboxes, user defined scales are available and make using your custom cupping sheets even easier. Here is a quick overview of the elements available to you:

Customize cupping sheets can now be presented using sliders, buttons, etc. Take your businesses sheet to the next level for easy on your phone access.

Speed things up with categorized descriptors

With so many descriptors to choose from and the ability to add your own scrolling through lists can take a second or two. To speed things up and to help businesses with their own lexicon Cup now supports defined descriptor lists. That means you can now make sure that only certain descriptors for a particular category are available. You can pre-select what descriptors can be chosen within each category. This selection is much faster, helps increase focus and saves everyone time and makes cupping sessions more efficient.  

Creating a set of defined descriptors for a category is a new feature. This means faster entry and more focus.
