1. A method of operating a coffee machine comprising a coffee grinder, the method comprising:
receiving, at a processor, a stored sequence of user settings configured to be applied to the coffee machine, the user settings including a stored sequence of a recorded parameter, the recorded parameter having been recorded while the coffee machine is in operation prior to receiving the stored sequence of user settings, wherein time intervals between each recorded value of the recorded parameter are recorded in the sequence of the recorded parameter, and wherein the user settings are associated with the recorded parameter;
displaying, in the form of a graph, the stored sequence of user settings and/or the stored sequence of the recorded parameter at a display of the coffee machine or a remote computing device;
segmenting, by a user, the stored sequence of user settings and/or the stored sequence of the recorded parameter into segments, the stored sequence of the user settings and/or the stored sequence of recorded parameter being segmented based on user input;
displaying, on the display, the segments on the graph;
storing the segmented sequence of user settings and/or the segmented sequence of the recorded parameter; and
operating the coffee machine based on the segmented sequence of user settings and/or the segmented sequence of the recorded parameter, wherein the recorded parameter includes grind settings, brew settings, and/or frothing settings.
