morning coffeebros
here's a cautionary tale for you
i like milk in my coffee, so i thought what if you replaced the boiling water with boiling milk? i tried mixing that with instant coffee and another cup with my french press
well it turns out taste like puke
dont make the same mistake as me

>>19637474
are you feeling okay?

>>19637512
>overheated milk tastes bad
gee who could have guessed?!

>>19637523
indeed. can you cheer me up with some fancy tasty way to make coffee? plain coffee is nice but sometimes i wanna make it luxurious.

I made coffee last night and put it in the fridge. just had it cold this morning and it was good

>>19637676
When is cold coffee ever good? Seems like eating cold chicken, plain boring.

>>19637673
moka goffee :)

>>19637676
I started making cold brew recently. It's convenient and it tastes good, very good idea

>>19637298
Is there anything I can add to these threads? I basically just drink coffee for maintenance. I grind some beans and put the grinds in my little Musa percolator and have a daily mug of coffee.

I fear I do not have enough coffee autism to add anything to these threads.

>>19637867
you could always post your cuppa joe :)

>>19637867
Friend the real question is, does this thread add anything to you?

>>19637515
I'm feeling better now, thanks anon :3
I had a cuppa of very fresh beans v60d at my local roaster. Tasty stuff.
Peru beans. Could spend a long time pondering all the flavor notes

>>19638027
What flavours did you get?

>>19638046
I find their Peru beans on the fruity side, but balanced and mellow. The v60 today was kinda grassy/herbal but in a nice way. Gentle acidity in the background that took me a while to notice. Beans were freshly roasted today.
Kinda fixated on the herbalness of it.
I wish I could find a kettle that isn't an expensive Hario but still has temp control and gooseneck spout so I can do more pourovers at home. The cheap stuff on Amazon always has this one review that points out a critical flaw that kills any desire to order it

onyx fast

Bought the coffee on the left as a treat to myself for my birthday
Smells great, and tastes good, but medium roast really isn't for me. It's also harder to grind.
It's fine for the summer, but it's back to my usual dark roast that's $10CAD cheaper

Drinking my morning iced cold brewed latte. Enjoy your goffe bros.

>>19638304
Grim.
>>19638236
Fantastic beans. Cherish them.

20% robusta decaf cold brew almost finished. as a thrill seeker i'm getting my money's worth.

>>19638072
If you want cheap just get one you put on the stove instead. You can always stick a thermometer in it.

>>19638236
How you brewing them?

This gobbe is so damn juicy and delicious

>>19638635
I didn't consider sticking a thermometer in it... That might be an idea.
The stovetop ones that come with one prebuilt have this dumb problem where the thermometer is plastic and is positioned where the steam comes out so it inevitably always melts. Dumb fucking Chinamen can't design a kettle.

>>19638304
Happy birthday!

What's your budget?

What moka pot would make exquisite coffee while simultaneously showing that I'm a sophisticated person?

>>19638639

iced hoffdaddy recipe
'drip' style
joepresso B)

just made a hoffmann cup with the kenya. very clean with peach and grapefuit upfront. im keeping myself from chugging it.

>>19638812
The budget is flexible since I have plenty of money and I was going to buy it for myself as a special gift since I'll be moving up to a new position in a few months. If it could be under 2k that would be great but I don't mind paying more. I have looked around but some grinders like the recent Weber ones look overpriced.

>>19638304

>>19638901
So you're looking at any titan single doser basically. Check out zerno, wug2, kafatek and option o. The new mxcool aeries would be another to check out. That should give you a solid look at the endgame market. I've had a wug2 for a little over a year now and love it.

what kind of people do you meet?

The ultra cheap immersion + filter setup:
>thrift store grinder (Cuisinart DBM-8C)
>thrift store french press
>jar
>tea strainer
>drip machine papers that I had lying around from I don't know where
>wooden fork from Costco food court, not pictured
>kitchen scale (Starfrit), not pictured
>timer: smartphone, could have just as easily used the old Casio watch my dad gave me
>saucepan and stove to boil water, not pictured

Recipe:
>45g coffee
>675g water

>bring water to a boil and keep it at a boil throughout process
>rinse paper filter with hot water
>grind coffee on mark 5 (4 clicks from the finest setting)
>add coffee into french press
>add 250g water, stir vigorously, and steep for 3 minutes stirring vigorously at 1 minute and again at 2 minutes
>after 3 minutes push plunger down halfway into liquid and slowly pour through filter into jar
>repeat process, but with 250g water
>repeat third time, but with 200g water
>swirl coffee in jar and pour into mug

Tasted pretty decent. A bit sour which I found strange considering the grind setting and the amount of fines produced by this cheap grinder, also the fact that standard french press brews at this setting tasted slightly bitter. Next time I'll grind 2 clicks finer and give it a bloom. Overall pretty good given what I had to work with.

Where are you on the chart pic rel

Local Walmart is carrying Tim Horton coldbrew concentrate. Ive only ever heard people talking about the brand here. Is it good? Like I need a comparison to something else? Is it Dunkin-tier? McD's-tier? Starbucks-tier? What level of shitty am i in for?

>>19640781
Book appointments in businesses that will not be able to see you immediately, but that don’t have any hold on your leaving from the waiting room- ie, not a car mechanic who will have your car in pieces. Show up a little early and you’ll probably be offered a coffee, drink it, then feign an urgent phone call and leave with apologies

Any other instant coffee drinkers here?

Of course proper coffee tastes better but I'm too lazy to make it and then wash out the french press afterwards.

>>19640921
Haven't drank this in a long time but when I did I loved it. Hopefully it still tastes great.

>>19640977
Shoulda had a pic of tasters choose house blend

>>19640977
I posted that because it's the most popular instant coffee brand here in Britain, but I normally buy store brand because it's cheaper.

And like I say, real coffee obviously tastes better, but instant is good enough I think, and requires less effort to make, and I'm lazy.

>>19640980
I assume this is an American variety. I don't think it's available here in the UK.

coffee tastes good

drip style results in a light chocolate, strawberry cup with the peach and grapefuit coming in and out but muted. sugar note essentially gone. much more mellow.

It's not a coincidence there are no s tier Italians.

tried a mulish sidamo from a local roaster, and its really good
im not too well versed on tasting notes yet but i appreciate that its less fruity and acidic than most of the stuff the other locals offer
i dont understand why "stonefruit" is a tasting note, though, because all stonefruit taste different
is it just to differentiate from other fruit or berries?

>>19646676
Pretend they don't exist for the sake of the argument.

I don't know what to do, I'm starting thinking that the Giannina is defective and has some kind of technical issue, in the meantime I also wrote the customer service of Giannini to ask them for guidance.

I also watched one of the very few videos of the Giannina on youtube and all of them act normally but then again the video shows mostly the "La tradizione" model (I have the new Restyling) and I don't know if there are changes between them.

Friends,

When I go to cafe the espresso taste so lovelee

With thick sediment and rich toungefeel

But at home espresso taste like piss

Why oh why? Why is this?

I use an expensive machine from delonghi

But my coffee does not taste like belonging?

What boffee beens do you believe I must buy?

To get that rich smooth espresso sediment that tastes oh so sly?

This angers the pseud. Touchscreen Lavazza barista automat.

>>19647531
I'm in the opposite camp, cafe espresso tastes mediocre at best and just plain bad at worst to me, compared to what I make at home. What machine are you using?

me liek cobbee

Why does coffee taste 1000x better after eating eggs or having something sweet? They both make the coffee taste amazing in different ways. I think I'll always start delaying when I have coffee so that I could have it with or right after a meal.

adds flavor

I need help with my espresso shots. I must be doing something wrong but I don't know what and I just need someone with more experience to point it out.

My shots are always sour. I have a Brevilla Barista Express. I bought beans from the local nice coffee shop that are specifically roasted for a typical chocolatey espresso. 19g on the scale, grind setting at a 6 on the machine. Machine is pre-heated for 10-15 minutes. I bought the Crema distributor tool and the palm tamper.

My goal yield is 19g in, 38g out. I use the tamper and the bed is perfectly level with Breville's razor tool, but when I hand-tamp I tamp it more. I time the preinfusion to 8 seconds, and then start the main infusion. No drops of espresso come out during the pre-infusion. The pressure spikes to about 1 o'clock on the machine's gauge, just above "ideal espresso" range. The first drops of espresso are very slow, but flow rate goes up some as the shot progresses. I need 45 seconds to get 38g out.

The shot is sour, but not unbearably so. But shots are sour when underextracted, so I increased grind fineness to 4. The shot pulled almost identically, and was possibly even more sour. How do I make the shot less sour? Am I doing something wrong in this process?

>>19648177
you want a less fine grind. less overall surface area total, more extraction of parts thats in there.

>>19648183
I will try that, but help me understand why that might work. Doesn't increasing the fineness increase the back pressure, slowing down the water flow, giving the water more time to extract from the grounds?

>>19648191
headcanon science here, from trial and error,
larger particles tend to extract further in the same amount of time. water penetrates them longer. its more so about getting the sweet spot once youre really almost there. if its still sour or more sour after grinding further, go back a few clicks instead and see how the flavor deepens. i often get this issue when brewing new beans in my moka. since the roast is never exactly the same theres always gonna be a little fine tuning needed.im always certain when the batch comes out sour, the grind was too fine.its your biggest control factor imo

>>19648177
Among other things manual pulling of the shot helps. My shots were always not good on my breville barista pro until I started manually pulling shots by holding the button for a manual preinfusiin of a few seconds, let go to begin extraction then pressing and letting go of button once I reach 2x gram yeild as compared to the beans in..then Itll end up with a few extra grams of yeild as the machine stops extraction when you press the button. Relying on the preprogrammed shot time by just pressing the button sucks.

>>19648177
>Just above ideal espresso range
Yeah that's 15 bar pal. Grind coarser, let it flow, pull straight pi shots.
https://espressoaf.com/manufacturers/breville/preinfusion.html

>>19648300
>https://espressoaf.com/manufacturers/breville/preinfusion.html
Holy shit anon. I just tried this and I actually cannot believe what I am tasting. Was it just the overpressure this whole time? I poured the shots in thirds and the first third actually tastes like something!

With the blind disc I got it up to about 10 bar, but pulling the shot I got closer to probably 5 or maybe 6. According to that guide I should dial back up the grind fineness to try and get the pressure right again, yeah?

>>19637298
Guys why am I stressed out and have horrendous anxiety all the time? I just don't get it!

>>19648360
I rarely pull shots above 6 bar. Dial in however you need to for your own personal taste and that particular coffee. Try bumping up that ratio to 1:3. More water to extract more. These two pages should get you pointed in the right direction. The second writeup will be throwing you into a bit of the deep end.
https://espressoaf.com/guides/beginner
https://espressoaf.com/guides/preferential-extraction.html
>Was it just the overpressure this whole time?
Yep. You're extracting low because your puck is getting slammed at 15 bar and clogging your basket. Perfect if you're an Italian tastelet who's only after crema and bitter coffee, shit for everyone else.

I'm looking to get a french press because they're pretty cheap.
Everywhere I look online people pour boiling water into the coffee. However, I've been making my coffee "Turkish" style and putting the grounded beans into a pot and boiling it with water.

I'm not entirely sure why I would put the boiling water into the press with the coffee and let it steep when the Turkish method generally gives a better flavor and I could just do that and then pour the already made coffee into the press to instantly separate the grounded beans.

Experimentally I went as fine as grind 2 and a PI shot still barely touches 6 bar before dropping. So I have tried pulling regular shots and while the pressure is more at that 9 bar mark the shot is very fast at around 10-15s, producing very sour shots again. At least this time it's for a different reason.

So how do I reconcile this? If I keep grinding finer to slow the shot down it feels like by the time I get to 25-35s shot time I will be back at the overpressure problem I started with. Should I try to grind *even finer* and just pull PI shots? It almost feels like the machine wants to use too much pressure or flow rate and as such I can't get a 30s shot time at 9bar. Should I preinfuse less? II'm using 18.1g +- 0.5g right now for consistency.

>Should I try to grind *even finer* and just pull PI shots?
Yes.
> It almost feels like the machine wants to use too much pressure or flow rate and as such I can't get a 30s shot time at 9bar.
You don't need a 30s shot at 9bar. You need something tasty in your cup.
>The 1:2 in 30 seconds “rule” is but a guide in pulling a good shot of espresso. It is not the be-all and end-all, and the sooner you let go of the need to hit these parameters exactly, the easier it will be to dial in your next coffee.
>“rewrite the part of your brain that tells you fast extractions at low pressure won’t work.” I’ve found that the turbo shot is the most forgiving of all espresso profiles, no matter the setup. If your grinder isn’t the best, your machine is pumping out 15 bars, and uneven extractions are getting you down, check out Michael Cameron’s guide to turbo shots here and here.

I trusted you and went to grind 1, internal burr setting 3. ~35s shot time, 18g/36g. And it tastes great. Thanks man. But I don't understand why the machine has to be used in such an unorthodox way to achieve this. I don't understand the intended use of the machine? If regular ass espresso beans at the recommended dosage for the basket have to be ground so fine that the machine's pressure causes channeling, what the fuck? Should it pump to a lower pressure? What gives?

I am definitely gonna try these turbo shots. You're literally the only person who has given advice that has resulted in not sour coffee. Incredible work.

Its a machine with a shitty grinder designed for people to blast starbucks beans and get some thick nasty crema, then steam milk with syrup in it. Like so.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y5RCgZaw9Ok
Most people buying them will never get past that stage and aren't interested in anything other than dark roasts. You're $1-$200 away from getting a much better (hand) grinder than what comes with the bbe and upping your experience significantly. If you don't want to drop for another grinder yet, just make sure yours is adjusted correctly. Move to a single dosing workflow for consistency. Weigh, grind, weigh.
https://youtu.be/QNvOcE4-VEo
>Should it pump to a lower pressure? What gives?
Yep, but so should nearly every other machine. Shitty delonghis, gaggias etc advertise a "15 bar ITALIAN GRADE PUMP" and they're not adjusted in the factory. They run high and people have to mod their overpressure valve to drop it lower or run a dimmer etc. You've functionally done this without any modification. This video demonstrates the difference dropping pressure can make.

>You're literally the only person who has given advice that has resulted in not sour coffee. Incredible work.
The people giving you advice are moka users who like to larp at making espresso. I'd advise ignoring them. Good luck. Pull 10 more shots over the next few days and let me know what you've learned.

>>19648446
Why even get a french press at that point? Just pour the finished coffee through a fine mesh sieve. The point of a french press (dedicated immersion brewer) is so you don't dirty a pot or kettle.

>>19648744

>Why even get a french press at that point? Just pour the finished coffee through a fine mesh sieve

I know where to buy a french press but idk where to buy a fine mesh sieve (no amazon in my cuntry). I have some sieves in my house but the coffee grounds seem to clog them and not let the water trough.

Oh shit I accidentally ordered goffee from Hodeidah!

I went there this afternoon and it was packed, I drank an espresso with their most popular blend (it was cash AF) and I ordered them 2 blends and 3 single origins + 1 pack of nespresso capsules for my parents because they only had the blends ready to buy and needed to roast the single origins, so by ordering them they will ship me fresh goffee.

Almost 2 kg coffee + 25 capsules = 62€.

Not bad at all, the nespresso capsules have an indecent price (9.50€ for 25 capsules aka 175 grams aka 137,5 grans of actual coffee and 37,5 grams of empty capsule). Fuck nespresso.

Bros, I bought the Kingrinder K4 instead of the K6 and apparently it’s “tailor-made for espresso” even though I only do pour-overs. However, looking at the specs for both they seem extremely similar with the main difference being that the K4 uses a hexagonal burr while the K6 uses a heptagonal burr. So is it even that big of a deal in taste?

>>19648788
>idk where to buy a fine mesh sieve
Search in shops that sell tea and tea equipment.

>I have some sieves in my house but the coffee grounds seem to clog them and not let the water trough.
Try letting the grounds settle on the bottom of the brew vessel (in this case pot) for a couple minutes before slowly pouring through a sieve into your cup/carafe.

>>19649032
Its a different profile from the k6, but its just a knockoff of the italmill burr in the kinu and others. Matt Winton won the World Brewers Cup 2021 with a kinu, you'll be fine.
https://youtu.be/_7azuIxdRF4
>they seem extremely similar with the main difference
Thats the only difference. K4 uses kinu/jx burr, k6 uses (bigger)comandante/K pro burr.

>>19648177
It’s possible you’re misreading bitter as sour, give the 45 second shot time. Does that 45 seconds include the 8 seconds of preinfusion?

If after a 45 second pull it’s genuinely sour I would still be grinding coarser to speed it up some but would start playing with ratio and maybe raising the temperature- what’s your brew temp?

>>19649233
The same way lobster, something that was fed to prisoners, became food for rich people.

Sometimes i add milk to my coffees to express my lactose tolerance superiority.

>>19650900
Lactose tolerant chads how does it feel knowing that your genes are superior and were meant to be passed

I have some robusta beans I'd like to use for espresso. Can I use them as is or should I mix with some Arabica and make a homemade blend?
I'm also afraid of excessive caffeine from using only robusta.

>>19650900
>>19650912
You can "cure" lactose intolerance by drinking a quarter of a glass of milk every day adding a quarter more everyday. Trust me I'm a scientist.

The custodian at my condo just sent me this picture.
She said that a weird Ape car stopped outside the main entrance and a man delivered to her this bag with my name on it.
I’ll pick it up in a couple hours once I’m home. :D

>>19650966
Wew

To the “enjoy your stale coffee” anon.

Pic related is the oldest, the single origins have been roasted yesterday.

I spoke with the owner and master roaster. They have a coal powered roaster from the 40s, this makes them one of one kind with Torrefazione Giamaica and their direct flame roaster machine from the same era.

Very cool, much SOVL.

>>19651067
Funny guy uh I'm trying to help a poor soul fix their shitty gut and you're over here being a comedian

>>19651155
Looking sexy. Do you know when they roast single origins?

>>19651217
The owner told me that since they’re a very small roaster (Torrefazione in Italian means a bar who roast its own coffee for consumption to the public and sale) they don’t have fixed dates so they roast as needed.
Pic related (not mine) is what you see when you enter the torrefazione, they have these big distributors filled with all the coffee they have on sale (they also have readily available Jamaica blue moon and several other luxury coffees such as Kopi Luwak that you can also have as 1 cup only of espresso if you ask) and when you order they fill your bags and roast new coffee when they’re low on the quantity inside the distributors.

It’s the same as Torrefazione Continental so don’t expect giga fresh coffee roasted on demand twice a week like Trabatti and Caffelab do.

Fun fact: Hodeidah, like Torrefazione Giamaica caffè, use a prewar machine from the 40s to roast coffee and theirs is powered by coal which is based as fuck because it makes leftists seethe.

I got 2 of my single origins roasted yesterday but they substituted one coffee I ordered (an Etiopia Sidamo) with a similar African coffee (Rwanda) because they were out of it and the owner gave me that one because the new Sidamo will be roasted in 10 days and he will give me a bag for free for the inconvenience once it’s ready.

So, in conclusion you need to know when they roast to get the freshest coffee possible, that’s why it’s better to go there in person buying.

Next time when I have more time I’ll go there and only buy fresh coffee, this time since I asked for the delivery I bought coffee for the whole month.

Let’s vacuum seal it and freeze these beans now.

Yea that’s the difference between me and these spammers, I actually buy what I post here from the roasters I try and I review it for the people ITT so they can try the same coffee if they want to experience what I did.

You understand thebarn gets reccd here because several of us around the world have had their roasts via standart? Just keep samefagging and responding to your own posts when you don't get enough attention.

Coffee worse than what I buy and roast isn't interesting in the slightest. You're posting grocery store beans.

You and me both, bud. I can't get a goddamn thing done without this bean juice blasting through my neurons.

Just ordered a not neutral vero espresso glass. Free shipping on Amazon and just by chance they have them for sale so I scooped one up. Been enjoying gobobollee out of a 3oz mug and I don't like the depth and handle. Gonna try the shot glass style of container.

>>19637298
Can someone explain ground coffee to me? Pic related tastes the same as a y other black coffee I've tried

will probably taste better, too

i really want to know what its like going for an extended period of at least a few months off it. I know its not that bad after a while but the first couple weeks are pretty hard and work usually drags me back to it
