Tips for reducing the silt at the bottom of the cup? Just got mine a few days ago, I'm using medium coarse grind.

>>15860623
grind coarser and pour slower

got a a large phin, the botton filter doen't even fit in mason jars, anyone has a 1 liter cafetière can tell me what the diameter is?

the silt comes mostly from superfines, pour slowly if that doesn't help upgrade grinder

I love affogato and viet-style egg coffee.

>>15860882
Use a funnel?

What's the best quality brew method for making coffee to serve 3+ people at once?

I saw pic related was posted on previous thread. Does water weight mean amount of water poured during brewing process or total amount including dilution?

It's a good home machine with good resale value if you end up not liking it or not using it enough to continue having it around.

Well, I got a DeLonghi with my stimulus check.
Though when I tried it out I was actually pretty happy with my results!
Granted, I worked as a barista for a while a couple years ago so I already had some idea on how to pull a decent shot.
I know it's not the most fancy machine out there, but I'm certain that I won't be tempted to go out to coffee shops as much now that I can make my own here.

finally upgraded from a walmart burr grinder to a Baratza Encore. the old one was decent for coarse ground stuff because the fine grounds would clump together and you could avoid jm, but I'm ready to finally get consistent grinds

>the cafe in the Amish tourist trap is the only place in the 10 mile radius that has espresso properly dialed in

If you're not drinking single origin affogatos, are you really living?

The other week I started saving (sacrificing) about 10g of beans as a color sample of a particularly sucessful batch for a difficult coffee. I hadn't really needed to do this before, but this coffee tastes the best at an extremely narrow window. I can match it every batch now. I don't doubt that this is an age old trick. Pragmatism finds a way. I thought this might be helpful to some of you guys.

Had that coffee as drip today, it was alright I guess. Not my favorite and definitely wouldn't pay a premium for it. Tasted pretty similar to the sweet maria's Guatemalan gesha which was like $8/lb.

>>15876034
That's just not true. $200 Breville Smart Grinder will do an adequate job; a $400 Sette 270 will do a very good job; if he's prepared to deal with a hand grinder he can get an excellent grinder for less than half of $750.

What grinder should I get for brewing espresso with a standard flair brewhead?
I'm looking at the Kinu m47 phoenix and 1zpresso grinders with coated burrs. Are there any better options at the bout 250 price range?

After trying most of the different places that sell to home roasters, I've settled on Happy Mug and Sweet Marias for greens

Is it wrong to be autistic about roast dates? I usually just buy one 250g bag of specialty coffee per month since it's expensive and i'm broke, I chose another bean than the one I wanted to get since it was roasted since 2 days compared to the 8 days on the one I wanted, my friend whom I went to buy coffee with derided me on it. I find specialty coffee after 3 weeks to have lost it's original flavor/peak and since I don't drink a lot I prefer them fresh.

>>15881322
8 days is ok, the sweet spot is 5 days to 6 weeks

back to basics on this saturday morning lads.

I started some cold brew last night about 16 hours ago, should it be ready or does it need the full 24? Fuck I need it now

>>15867276
Use bone stock instead of water

>>15881749
Taste some. :)

>>15881835
Turns out 16 hours is enough. I can't imagine this brew getting much more concentrated. Perfect for caffeinemaxxing.

>>15871814
I have one of these and have come to a similar conclusion that it's nearly the peak way to make coffee. Almost perfect, but my one complaint with this type of press is that it leaves behind a ton of sediment and really needs one more filtration pass through paper. Haven't tried filtering it yet though.

>>15881901
thats just bc its your first cup of the day. when its fully done it will hit DIFFERENT.

>>15881901
24 is way too much. I think starbucks does 24 hours and it's awful. Caribou does 12 to 14 and it's perfect

>>15881901
Cold water or room temp? Fridge or counter for the 16?

Store bought coffee as a contrast to home brew. Nice.

>>15881322
Nah I think that's fine. I buy a couple of 250g bags from a roaster elsewhere in my country a couple times a month that typically gets most of their beans to me within four days of the roast date; the couple roasters near me don't rotate the bags on their shelves, and have anything from six days to sixteen days old on the roast dates so I don't even bother anymore unless I fuck up my timing on getting new coffee to arrive before using up my current lot.

if i roast beans does that make me a roastie?

What do you home roasters use to roast your coffee? Do you need the bingo cage, or can you just put them in a pan on the stove? Roast them in the oven? Can home methods really beat the professional process?

We made our own scones from scratch every day too. The smell coming from the back was glorious. I like to think that the recipes and standards I left behind showed how the coffee could punch above its weight. Was "good" stuff with some excellent single origin beans available to us.

>>15895649
If you know someone outside the US willing to buy one and send it to you as long as you pay them back, just make sure to have them declare it as a competition prize to avoid import taxes.

Half the price of a La Pavoni Pro and with a bigger basket and better reproducability of shots. I regret buying a used La Pavoni last year. Should just gotten a bellman steamer and this.

If La Pavonis dont reduce their prices, theyre going to get mogged by cheaper and better lever machines like the Flair 58.

Been doing kalita wave for months, finally went back to v60 and enjoying my results lately. Kept going finer with the grind than what I originally thought was acceptable and started noticing brighter notes that I previously only got from the kalita.

Why there's no proper OP post here?

I'm looking for a home coffee machine up to $500. I am drinking only espresso. At the moment I have a Graef CM702 grinder and I will upgrade in a couple of months.

Models I'm meh about:
Gaggia classic - needs mods , I prefer to spend more and not need to fuck around so much
Rancilio Silvia - unreasonably expensive in EU, not sure if worth it

>>15898325
Getting a manual like flair classic or a robot is a good choice if you only drink espresso. 9Barista maybe? Have you looked at those?

>>15898447
Not really, I have not considered manual machines so far. Sounds like something with a steep learning curve. I'll read up on those, though.

>>15898995
flair and robot are fine, pressure gauges are overkill and flair 58 went full retard with the water heater if you want to make multiple shoots at once you will have to either buy more portafilters/brew chambers or soldier on.

He imports it from China, but you get local warranty/aftersales. I prefer it to the Niche (harsh/acidic shots from medium/dark roast beans). The only annoying thing is a small amount of fines spill onto the counter when pressing on the bellows, but it's not the end of the world (for me).

>>15899179
Looks like they won’t be shipping any orders until after May. I wouldn’t mind paying more for shipping from somewhere overseas as long as it’s a trustworthy, reputable place.

>>15899334
I'm sure Ali is fine. Look on home-barista forum. Some people on there have ordered the grinder from Ali with no issues - they say Amanda (sales rep) is very helpful.

Alright /ck/. Tell me what I'm doing wrong.
My walmart tier drip brewer was getting old and gross so I bought a fancy ninja brewer and a cuisinart burr grinder, and a bag of 8oclock whole beans. It tastes like shit! Bad flavor, nasty aftertaste. I've tried adjusting the grind and it still sucks. Did I get a bad bag of beans? This setup cost me $300+ bucks

>>15900488
Gives a meaning to our life

>>15903049
hah gay

>>15902950
Have you had those beans before, and did you like them? Try a lighter roast, like a medium. If it's too bitter, grind coarser and it should get less harsh.

>>15902950
The other anon gave you good advice, additionally to that, what's the roast date on the beans? Is it a roaster or off the shelf supermarket coffee? How did you dose it? If you're using a scoop or something volumetric, and if you've ground the coffee finer than what you were using in your old brewer, and you use the same volume of ground coffee, you're brewing a lot stronger, for example.

>>15903384
>>15902950
Oh and are you using the same coffee filters as you were with your last machine? If that's changed as well, try rinsing the filter before using it - some filters have a very unpleasant paper taste that can overpower good coffee.

anyone with experience on the Xeoleo hand grinders? are they gucci or not?

>>15903384
Off the shelf beans. Maybe they are old, I threw the bag out after loading it all into the grind hopper so I can't check.
>>15903387
It has a permanent metal filter, I haven't been using paper filters at all. Although I've been noticing quite a bit of silt in the bottom of the carafe, so maybe the metal filter is actually not fine enough.

>>15903982
Some people swear by their electric ghost burr grinder for pourover, dont know about their handgrinders. Timemore c2 or 1zpresso are the usual reccomended chink hand grinders.

>>15904143
Not bait you faggots. If you have a better idea post it, otherwise shut the fuck up.

Is it good idea to invest on mug heater? My brew usually gets stingy after less than one hour, so I think if I can keep it warm, the taste will degrade slower.

>>15898325
>>15899487
I went for a Lelit with a nanometer and PID. I'm a noob, so I still have time for a more high end machine.

>>15904608
Good coffee goes through pleasant flavor changes as it cools. All coffee eventually tastes worse and worse the longer it stays warm. My advice is to not invest in a mug warmer, but in better coffee that you actually enjoy the taste of.

>>15904608
I drink all of mine right after brewing

>>15904355
Yeah, return that ninja to costco and buy a better grinder.

58mm is best mm - I prefer VST baskets but otherwise well done

>>15863773
I sure do love a big, hefty, strong, robust, thick, substantial, tasty, aromatic, rich, nuanced, heavy, luscious, delicate, transparent, sweet, gentle, balanced, soft, buttery, thin, smooth, creamy, sticky, pleasing, mouth-filling, fruity, and plump cup of coffee in the morning

>>15908134
I figured if I was snagging all the other shit why not toss it on. I'll need a single basket so maybe a 7g vst will end up in my possession.

>>15908332
Nothing at all wrong with Pullman anon - I love my tamper.

>>15859857
Very glad I found out about whipped cream in coffee.

>>15859857
Brewing 50g / 700ml in Chemex. Drawdown takes 3 minutes but coffee still tastes watery and bitter. I'm all the way down to finely ground just to keep the water from falling straight through the filter but it's still too quick. What do?

>>15909252
Love doing this when I'm relegated to pre ground

Ahhh

>>15908621
I was a little peeved about the price adding up, then I realized aud has been in the toiler for eternity. Came out to 350usd shipped.

>>15876975
pathetic

>>15910361
why

>>15859857
anyone know a good stovetop milk frother?

I now make the better coffee than anyone I know or any coffee shop I have ever been to. There is nothing left to buy or anything significant left to learn. A twenty year journey. All that is left to do is to quietly enjoy myself.

>>15911220
not until you buy a farm and grow your beans.

>>15911220
>better coffee than anyone I know or any coffee shop I have ever been to
Who do you know and where have you been?

>>15911435
Not him but I'd guess that 20 years is far more qualified than most coffee shop employees

I have 13 different beans right now and I only drink 12-14 grams a day

>>15871814
>pour into paper filter
So what is the advantage over simply making it in a V60 with a paper filter then?

>>15893141
Hopefully that is the Kinufag who joined me on righteous crusade against the Lido. Inshallah brother

>>15905034
Why would you ever buy meme brewer shit when there are numerous methods of brewing at sub $30 that frees up funds to spend on a better grinder

>>15911775
yeah but 20 years in a bumfuck shithole is going to offer you little if you dont know quality roasters or havent experienced cafes that are Scandinavian, Australian, etc

>>15911890
You know it. I'll be shilling weber when I upgrade, don't worry. Fuck Lido.

>>15911914
Its very obvious he thought going from a walmart dripper to a sam's club dripper would make a difference.

>>15910256
sup fellow Bostard. Been ripped off at a Tate lately?

I got this as a christmas gift. I didn't ask for it, but I appreciate gifts that come from what people think I would like, rather than what I ask for(not that I asked for anything, of course). It's very fun to use, but it seems to be a gimmick more than anything else. Very japanese in that the function is overly complicated: a process of filtering a hot water/coffee grind blend pushed into a relatively meticulous ordeal.
Who else /syphons/?

>enjoy my 1-2x 450ml mugs of french press a day
>apparently cafestol and kahweol are horrible for health in unfiltered coffee
Do I NEED a goose neck for pour overs? V60-2 the best bet for a 16oz mug servings I'm guessing? an extra .20 cents per cup sounds like a pain in the fucking ass. Should I just skip that bullshit and move on to Espresso or does it suffer from the same health problems as press?

>>15912317
If you can pour at a relatively constant rate with a normal kettle, you don't need a gooseneck, although you may need to learn how to pulse (i.e. start and stop pouring to achieve a certain flow rate).

1940’s Sunbeam Coffeemaster-race.
Picked one up at a flea market for $19; zero sign of ever having been used.
It’s been a fun electric project; the temp control mechanisms are fully adjustable if you open it up, and the old repair/calibration manual is available online.

>>15912317
You definitely don't NEED one, it just makes it easier to pour consistently. Like if you already have a kettle you don't need to go out and buy one just to have a gooseneck. If you don't have a kettle and are planning on buying one, then you may as well get a gooseneck because they shouldn't be any more expensive than a regular spout.

>>15912231
You thought about getting a halogen heater for it?

French Press is superior. Your just not grinding coarse enough.

1 pot of French press, and I'm good for the day. Plus it makes me take q massive bowel cleaning shit in 30 minutes.

>>15860038
Just use a coffee maker homo

>>15912197
I've never actually been to the place. The mug is a christmas gift from a friend. Not sure why he got it for me, considering.

whoms aeropress here

well I ordered the fucking DF64. Hope you're happy.

I guess I should get around to ordering an espresso machine now... Any suggestions?

I usually steep a french press for 4 minutes then pour why the fuck does hoffman steep for 4, stir crust, remove floating fines, then steep for another 5? won't that over extract the shit out of it after 9-10 min?
He doesn't bloom the coffee by pouring in 0.25-0.5 of your water and letting it outgass for 30s, either which I was always taught to do.

>>15913386
Flair 58 second batch in a few months lol.

>>15913588
Not interested in headphones, I asked for espresso machine recommendations

>>15913421
Because Hoffman also takes cocks up his ass on a regular basis

>>15913685
Yeah and?
If faggotry were a disqualifying factor for coffee, this entire thread would be null.

>>15913421
>blooming french press
For what fucking purpose? You do it for percolation brews because the water has a limited amount of time to be in contact with the coffee, but it doesn't matter for an infusion brew.

>>15913685
Just looking at the guy you could tell he sucks a mean dick.

>>15913741
>get your dick sucked pro-style and then get served a literal award-winning coffee
Explain the problem?

>>15913386
Depends what you are after. Gaggia Classic, Lelit Elizabeth or Mara X maybe?

Drink espresso without milk sometimes

>>15914403
It has to be good espresso.

>>15914207
Was considering the lelit, rocket is always suggested but don’t know much about it. Also highly considering just saying fuck it and going Decent

>>15914403
I always try to dial in something that tastes good on its own before I make milk drinks with it.

>>15859857

>>15915499

>>15915499
How did the coffee get into the cup?
You had to put it in there first. Then pour water. Fuck multistep processes.

The only proper way.

gee, how i am supposed to think the system works?

I have a JX Pro coming in a few days bros. I'm unreasonably excited, I was using grounds before.

>>15917139
Fuck yeah man, it’ll seriously change the game for you

Is there any data as to the degradation (?) of coffee/taste/quality/etc. for coffee that sits in a hot thermos all day? I make a V60 in the morning before work, and even letting it 'air out' to cool down, it ends up tasting worse the longer it stays very, very hot. But why? Purely continued extraction from whatever tiny grains are still in the liquid the whole time?

>>15895649
I've noticed that too - it's crazy? What the fuck happened to make people buy them the way they did/what raised their popularity so much? I was trying to buy a commendatore and absolutely couldn't find one anywhere.

>>15917889
A little bit about overextraction, yes. Mostly about the volatile compounds in brewed coffee breaking down when it is reheated or kept warm for too long. There is a lot of coffee nerd shit about this on the internet.

>>15917997
I think it's mostly high demand with so many people working from home and not going to coffee shops. It won't last forever, but it does kinda suck.

>>15917997

>>15918031
Most coffee grinders do have pretty stupid names.

>>15917998
I figured it had to be something like that, from what little I know. It's kind of a shame - the thermos I have is almost too good at keeping it hot, and I usually don't drink it fast enough to prevent it from getting fucked.

That said, still better than the local place near work, so I guess I'll just have to deal with it.

>>15918013
That's understanding, but it is absolutely irritating. If my only option is buying something mid-level at a $100+ mark up item on ebay, I'm effectively getting pushed up to the next price point anyway.

>>15918188
I think it's better to just get something cheap and waiting it out. There's no point in getting riped off.

>>15918209
unless you are storing wealth in gold and silver there is no waiting it out

Been drinking Dunkin cold brew lads

>>15918331
I'm talking about the availability of manual coffee grinders. I have no idea what you're talking about.

There is none you just know that coffee isn’t the only place he gets the blue medal.

I'm really going to miss these greens when I run out. Loma la gloria red bourbon black honey.

my friend gave me a moka pot he wasn't using. works great and it does a better extraction than drip for sure.

saw a moka pot at a thrift store for $3
should i get it

>>15919086
Oh, that sounds good. What did they taste like?

>>15910256
happy mug chads win again, just got the peru in today

>>15920035
Tart apples and berries. Starts to get a little chocolatey as it rests or if you roast it a bit darker.

>>15920487
I’ll buy a bag of roasted from you. How much?

>>15920924
$60/12oz.

>>15859857Look. I know im responding to a mongoloid, i know. But i have to tell you. You dont know anything about coffee. Read all the faggot books you want. Go to coffee fest and turn your nose up to the italians and masturbate over synesso. Go pay thousands of dollars to be a q gradee and look at coffee under a uv light. Go for it. I dont even care. Just remember kid, i was stripping trucks of supremos while you were in fucking poopy pants diapers. I remeber when Choc full of Nuts delivered coffee in a fucking rolls royce. Your playing yourself, kid.

I have over 100 specialy offerings from 97 different countries of origin in contianer quanities AT ALL TIMES. Wow you say mr. Coffee broker bean KANG you just doxed yourself on the internet, but i dont care. Fuck you. Ive been doing this so long i was playing golf with the nca guys before it blew up ive been a member and disbarred by the scaa more times then your punk ass has even been on there mailing list. Ive FUCKED my way through more coffee roasters secrateries than you even have in your rolodex. I have a warehouse filled with over $1,000,000 of espresso equipment laying DEFUNCT.

People like you, kid, people like your are marks, customers, losers. Go ahead, drink your shitty overextracted coffee; freeze your green coffee; hook up pid machines to your little home.use espresso machines, buy a 1 bag Lorring. But to me kid, youll always be a loser and a faggot

>>15859985
Before starbucks bought it the Clover was built buy a guy named Zander, no joke. Its a cool machine but its heavy as fuck and slow. its like a french press/pour over in a giant machine. its cool i guess. I have 2 of them.
