Editorial policy & corrections

Last updated: October 4, 2026

The Coffee Diary publishes practical coffee guides, recipes, explainers, and culture stories for curious coffee drinkers. Our aim is to make each article clear, useful, and proportionate to the evidence behind it.

How we approach articles

We distinguish practical advice, editorial opinion, and factual claims. Recipes and brewing guides should include usable measurements and steps. Articles about research, health, products, or industry developments should use relevant sources where they help readers check a claim.

Experience, sources, and recommendations

Coffee preferences vary with equipment, beans, water, and taste. Our guides are starting points rather than universal rules. We aim to describe firsthand testing as such and not present general information as a personal result. Health-related information is educational only and is not medical advice.

Use of tools and automation

We may use digital tools, including AI, to assist with research, planning, and drafting. These tools do not replace editorial responsibility, source checking, or corrections. We remain responsible for the content we publish and for improving it when material issues are identified.

Corrections and updates

When we find a material factual error, we correct the article and update it where appropriate. Readers can report an error, request a correction, or provide a source through our contact page. Please include the article URL, the specific claim, and supporting information where possible.
