Sources and how we pick

PickMyBrew is an informational site. We compile manufacturer specifications and public coffee references. We do not run a tasting lab, and we do not claim hands-on testing.

What we publish

• Brew method explainers and buying guides with a direct answer near the top.
• A brew matcher that returns real catalog products whose method tags and specs fit the answers you give.
• Amazon product cards with a local product photo, verified maker specs where available, with unverified quantitative claims omitted, and the Associates tag fitmysites-20. We never show Amazon prices.

Where facts come from

• Manufacturer product pages and spec sheets (Baratza, Breville, Fellow, Hario, Technivorm, De’Longhi, Gaggia and others named on each card).
• Public references such as the SCA brewing-chart discussion and the NCA pour-over method. Individual guides link the relevant method or model, not a blanket source list.
• When a number is uncertain or model-specific, we soften the wording and note it in our internal fact-check list.

How products get on a page

1. The item is sold on Amazon.com and has a stable ASIN we can open.
2. We store a clean main product photo locally under /img/amz/.
3. We record a short note, role, brew-method tags, budget tier and cited specs in deals data.
4. The matcher and tiers only recommend items that exist in that catalog.

Affiliate disclosure

Some links are affiliate links, and we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Commissions do not change which specs we quote. The site footer carries the standard Amazon Associates statement on every page.

Corrections

If a maker changes a spec, email [email protected]. We update from the current manufacturer page.
