App runs alarms and timers as well as a sparge water counter etc so you can be ready to brew before the first coffee of the day is made. or be ready to brew when you arrive home from work etc. (personally, I like waking up to the clatter of Karen making a beer out in the bar area, so this may be a disadvantage in our household)There's lots to be said for the new controller, it's just a matter of guys/girls deciding whether they want that level of functionality. Maybe not for some folk, but think it'll have a wide appeal.Hope that helps.Martin</blockquote>
