What Matcha Almanac is

Matcha Almanac is a local-first companion for making matcha. It provides a recipe library, brewing guide, glossary, a brew journal, a tin cellar, and calculators, and runs in your browser with no account. The recipes, guide, glossary, reference tins, calculators, and the brew journal are free and unlimited; an optional Premium subscription adds the tin cellar, the journal export, and the compiled printable sheets.

Premium and payments

Premium is available as a weekly or yearly subscription or a one-time lifetime purchase. Payments are processed by RevenueCat and Stripe, and subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled from the link in your receipt email. Access is tied to this browser; keep your receipt email for recovery.

Refunds

Not happy with a purchase? Email [email protected] within 14 days of a first purchase, or within 7 days of a renewal, and we will refund it. Send the message from the email address you used at checkout, and include:

• the email address used at checkout (if you are writing from a different address)
• your access code, shown on the Premium page while you are signed in on the browser you purchased from
• roughly when you purchased, and which plan (weekly, yearly or lifetime)
• the last 4 digits of the card, if you have the receipt handy

That is everything needed to find the purchase and process the refund. This policy does not limit any statutory rights you may have.

Use of the content

Recipes, brewing parameters, caffeine estimates, and reference content are provided as general guidance. Verify anything important for your own taste, dietary needs, or health before relying on it.

No warranty

The app is provided as-is, without warranties of any kind. Calculations and estimates may not be exact. You are responsible for how you prepare and consume matcha.

Your data

All data you create is stored in your own browser. You are responsible for exporting backups if you want to keep your journal and tins. The app cannot recover data that your browser has cleared.

No medical claims

Matcha Almanac makes no medical or health claims. Caffeine and L-theanine figures are informational estimates and are not a substitute for professional advice.
