She's married to a doughboy. Could be a beard situation like hoffmann's wife though.

>>19804092
She claims to be bisexual, which, coming from vagina people, almost always means they kissed a female friend on the cheek once to titillate a male who was present (but would never in a million years put her face between another girl's legs), but this one is andro enough where I actually believe it's possible

>>19804110
she has an andro face i will give you that but her body leaves no doubts about her gender, shes got a big nice pair of tits

>>19804143
Yeah I just mean hair and sometimes what appears to be a binder, most basic bitch "bisexual" women would only have short hair as a self-harm reaction to a mental health crisis, she wears it with pride

K6 is still budget king.

Yeah so I've got 1.5 lbs left of Costco coffee.
It tastes ~ok~ as cold brew or pour over, but using it for espresso is absolutely vile.
I want to throw it out and buy new beans but being an honorary jew, I can't justify spending $15 when I already have coffee at home

This is a follow-up post to my mini-blog post last thread, thank you for reading.

>>19804986

Can I make an affogato with a moka brew or will it be too watery?

>>19805639
Reduce the moka brew on the stove

>>19805613

>>19805639
just add more ice cream :)

>>19805647

why do drip machines work like this?
wouldn't it be better to have a tall, thin tube that you put coffee into with a paper filter at the end and then drip water on top
i just feel like the classic design is so wasteful and inefficient

Sadly, I decided to delete the page.

I wasn’t happy with it I and got rid of the whole project since there already are bazillion coffee videos from other users.

Someday I will find my purpose in life.

>>19805907
Might as well delete your life at this point

Update on the moka affogato. Added more icecream to compensate for extra water. 100g of moka in this 200ml cup, I didn't measure the weight of the icecream. Came out pretty good, although still watery. The drink itself tastes a bit like sweetened cappuccino. Would recommend if you don't have real espresso.

>>19805907

Hmm... now that I'm tasting it, it feels somewhat like mint chocolate in the back of the palate. Anyone ever try affogato made with mint chocolate ice cream? Could be interesting.

What moka pot should one buy? Is the aluminum better or just an alzheimer cup?

>>19806407
the E&B Lab 6 cup moka
and the "aluminium causes alzheimer's" is a myth formed from academic fraud.

>>19805960
To be fair, iced coffee is way faster to prepare.

I get why one might not have the patience for pour over, or even americano, but why would you ever use a drip coffee maker over a moka pot?

>>19806469
>but why would you ever use a drip coffee maker over a moka pot?

Drinking some dark roast this morning. Feeling good lads.

What brew of coffee should I look for my moka pot?

>>19806646
moka

how come almost no other dry food ingredient has as much obsession in regards to grind and extraction? absolutely no one grinds nutmeg or black pepper to a specific fineness, applies bars of pressure and a ratio of water/oil passthrough for optimal extraction, they just do a coarse uneven grind, yet I'm sure there are advantages to it

fellow goys i did it.. went for first espresso device. yes its Gaggia Evo Pro. fuck you.
any tips on getting gud w it immediately? got a 9bar spring for it. no PID yet. anyone have? did you pimp it out? whats the specs?

Alright mokatists, I beseech you to lend me your knowledge. I’m going to buy an E&B and a Gianinna, is there a particular advantage (or disadvantage) to getting a 3 cup vs 6 cup, other than volume? The only moka pot I have now is a bialetti venus 6 cup. I know the technique is slightly different depending on the size, are there any other notable differences?

>>19806646

>>19806717
Coffee consumer are addicts. Same thing happens with other drugs.

what's the actual reason behind metal filters being less fine than paper? if it's a machining limitation could they not simply compensate with more layers?

>>19807015
because paper filters dont have holes
and surface tension exists so you can only make the metal holes so small when dealing with gravity
you can make the hole REALLY small if you then increase the pressure but then its not a pour over.

>>19807042
>paper filters dont have holes
how does water pass through then? surely the holes are just smaller. and couldn't you fix the hole size by layering more filters slightly off-set so it can only pass through a bit of the total of each hole?

>>19807074
Paper towels are made of many small fibers that have gaps in between them. Water gets pulled into these gaps by capillary action—the same phenomenon that allows trees to suck water out of the ground.
if you are about to say gaps are holes i will point you to this video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=egEraZP9yXQ
and then wired gourmet's video on paper filters
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYxElo9YF2c

>>19807074
So then you're left with an impossible to clean matrix of metal clogged with coffee fines 6 layers deep?

>>19807169
just put it in a ultrasonic bath
those things can clean anything

>>19807169
you click them together and apart somehow then clean them separately. can't click together without the right orientation. seems doable

>>19807279
You're making something very complicated for very little benefit.

>>19807299
paper filters are expensive and wasteful

>>19807334
Somehow less wasteful than filling and running an ultrasonic every time you want a cup because some asshole sold you a stack of screens.

>>19807334
also they rob you from the precious oils.

The Giannina models are a bit bigger (fit greater volume of dry coffee) than the Bialetti models for the same amount of cups. The 6 cup E&B competition filter should fit Bialetti 6 cup models but will not fit any Giannina.

>>19806083
Hay anon, how did you know that I was working on croissants today? In some hours I’ll be at the point shown in your webm.

Pic related is the dough resting 9-10 hours.

>>19806168
I’ll keep posting them here.

I hate social media and although I made Instagram only to show the pictures and with the idea of making tutorials, the fact that I all works around paying to promote your posts or having 4000 contacts to be followed by a bunch of people + all the degeneracy on that platform disgusted me. Basically 8 out of 10 coffee videos, so the ones that are visualised, are paid promotions.

It simply wasn’t for me, I’m stuck in the pre normies era of internet, when people used to make blogs…

>>19805934

Fun fact: 2 roasters (1 American) followed me.

>>19806900
Don’t buy the EB filter if you have a stainless steel moka without taking the measures before.

>works around paying to promote your posts or having 4000 contacts to be followed by a bunch of people >:(
>2 roasters (1 American) followed me :)
The kids on myspace used to call it f4f. Friend for friend, follow for follow etc. You're happy that some d tier roasters followed your page to promote their instagram kek. Kindly delete yourself, and go back.

>>19807842
thats not the E&B filter

>>19807844
It's the upper filter of the 3 cups Giannina.

The problem doesn't lie in the dimensions of the filter because they're comparable in width, the problem is, as you can see in the image, that the internal round part is too wide if compared to the E&B filter, therefore the coffee puck in the Giannina would exceed the filter limits.

I'm not sure but something tells me that narrower pots such as the Alessi 9090 and the Ilsa Slancio could fit the filter, especially the latter because it has a screw mechanism like aluminium pots

>>19807843
So you're saying that you have to prostitute yourself in order to have a +1 follower?
That's not why I made my account, I genuinely wanted Italian people to learn something but since the algorithm ignored me, also because I never posted a picture with a human face, and because the 30 seconds attention span is painfully true, then I gave up because that's not the way I like to work.

Spending 2 days to make a 30 seconds elaborated clip for a fucking cup of moka it's inhumane, especially considering that I don't make money out of it.

Worry not anon, I didn't do all of this for nothing. My camera is still here, the tripod and light box too, we can have a lot of fun in /ctg/.

I promise you that in the next day I'll post here a kino picture of my french croissants with a nice cup of cappuccino, hell, maybe even a webm.

>>19807833
>how did you know that I was working on croissants today?
You posted about it. When picnob first said "Page not found" i searched for you.
May the croissants come crisp on the outside and soft and airy on the inside.
Godspeed.

>>19807879
i wonder if you could make your own
like if you get a "blank" that is the same dimensions as the giannina and then drill the same size holes in the same place as the E&B

>>19807895
Fair enough, the people on VC call me lattanon and google archives it.

I guess that the dossier about me is going to become bigger overnight. :^)

Also thank you.

>>19807905
It would be cool if E&B could made filters for other pots, I mean would it really cost so much more?
Maybe if we ask them via email at some point they could consider making a custom order, who knows.

>>19807886
No I'm saying your content wasn't good enough to attract the attention you've been seeking for months.
>I encourage any anon ITT to make his own instagram channel and post their coffee related pictures just to spite this insufferable fuck here
Its funny how much can change in two weeks. How many days did it take you to get upset and delete it after that post?

>>19807911
I enjoy reading your writings. I relate somewhat. I'm not dossier anon though andI still haven't read why they call you milk related anon but i'll read it when the times right. Time to sleep. Don't forget to keep the croissants straight.

>>19807930
It was good enough for you to archive every single thing I write here.
I never was fond of opening an instagram account, it's the platform I dislike because I never had a social media account (I used to have facebook for a couple years but deleted many years ago).
I want to create contents for people to help/educate them, I was only posting pictures to populate the page when I realized that I would never have succeeded simply because I'm a nobody and I can't make 30 seconds videos for people with ADHD attention spans and constant framing change.

>Its funny how much can change in two weeks. How many days did it take you to get upset and delete it after that post?

That's why I told other anons to do so, because other anons are not me, maybe they're more motivated.

>>19807935
They call me lattanon because I started writing detailed milk reviews on Diochan as a joke, I bought every bottle of fresh whole milk I could find and tested it also making cappuccino with it for the "coffee pairing test" and also tried raw milk from a farm where I live.

People there loved the skit and started calling me lattanon (from latte - milk), but I was also "other anons" because I made detailed posts about meat and how to cook it with cast iron/ sous vide, etc.. and generally cooking threads, and many more things.

Now since Diochan basically collapsed because it's managed by a crazy retard, me and other Italian anons went on VC and they spot me everytime I post. :D

>keep them straight

Yes, I will show them - I guess - in about 6 hours or so.

>>19807948
Posts get archived. Its really not that complicated. Kind of the whole reason why we title every thread /ctg/ is for easy searching. If trabatti had answered your emails or followed you back you'd have never thought about deleting it. But your boyfriend left you on read once again. Simple as. I'm really feeling the failed instagrammer spite here.

Please take your own advice and stop posting about the nice Italian man who I'm sure would prefer not to be involved in some 4channer's homoerotic fantasies. I like your on topic posts, but this obsession really brings the vibe down and you end up derailing the thread. You and the dossier guy should just get a room and have at it. Stop shitting up the threads.

>>19807923
i have tried already dont bother
minimum order is 500 filters or you buy singles from distributors
there are cafes in italy that want to stock E&B products but they dont have room to store 500 of whatever product. and they won't allow them to buy like 50.

>>19808025
Well, that's unfortunate and I guess that they do this to promote their E&B moka.
Too bad, I won't buy aluminium anything so they can suck my balls.

>>19806769
I can't believe they came out with a new release without PID. Its fucking 2023 and no PID? Are you kidding me? You need to mod that asap

>>19808066
I haven't tried it myself, but the measurements for the Bialetti 6 cup stainless steel filter plates are close enough to the E&B 6 cup competition filter that it could fit. 67mm for the Bialetti 66.25 for the E&B

Stop derailing the fucking threads please. Ignore schizos, trolls, and anyone who wants to argue about off topic subject matter.

>>19808110
but the reason why people buy the E&B Lab filter is because the holes are much smaller and the different distribution
>E&B Lab developed a filter with smaller holes (0.2 mm diameter) than the fewer and larger traditional ones (≈ 0,8 mm diameter)

>>19808218
Yes, and it's designed to fit aluminum Bialetti moka pots. I don't understand your point. I'm telling you that there is a good chance you could fit a 6 cup competition filter into a 6 cup stainless steel Bialetti moka pot.

>>19808259
no im saying that saying "hey look at the dimensions of this other moka filter" is worthless because the bialetti has larger holes just like gianni

>>19808179
>Ignore schizos, trolls, and anyone who wants to argue about off topic subject matter.
This kills the mokaposter.

>>19808303
no, that kills the italian attention seeking 10 year warranty broken pressure valve 0 follower instagram faggot

>>19808268
With my giannina I’m able to grind way more finer than with the aluminium bauletti, I always thought that the giannina has narrower holes in its filter than other moka pots.

Unironically own pic related and it's the best thing I've ever been gifted. I travel a lot because of work, but I've ended up using it at home. It works extremely well and I've never had any grind come through the mesh. It's too bad it's expensive.

>>19808318
i mean they could be but i havent used a bialetti in years
but just looking at the pic you posted those holes looks massive compared to my competition filter
and its got those scuffed machining marks on it which dont exactly scream high quality

iirc one of the original reasons why i recommended it in the first place is because it is stainless steel as to not trigger your schizophrenia.

>>19808309
>Will I become the next trabatti?
>or will I have to boil coffee with onions for attention?

>>19808336
oh damn, did hiromoot start to integrate ads as posts in thread?

>>19808268
You're not making sense. The filter hole size does not affect fitment of the filter plate itself. The E&B competition filter was designed to replace the filter plate in aluminum Bialetti moka pots. I'm saying that it is very likely the 6 cup competition filter also fits 6 cup stainless steel Bialetti moka pots.

>>19808382

>>19808406
I don't say this easily or very often, but you are actually retarded.

See >>19808066
>I won't buy aluminium anything
So I pointed out a very plausible solution by fitting a competition filter into a stainless steel moka pot. No aluminum involved.

>no one was talking about Bialetti
The E&B moka pots are clones of the classic aluminum Bialetti Express. It's fair to compare the two. Video for reference: youtube.com/watch?v=d7gS45wdbag

Filter hole size does not matter in terms of fitment. It's very likely that a 66.25mm filter plate will fit in a slot designed for a 67mm filter plate. It could have the filter holes arranged in a smiley face pattern and it would still fit.

>>19808526

>>19808525
>skill issue
reddit phrase. go back.

If you want a competition filter in a stainless steel moka pot your only option seems to be Bialetti. It won't fit in the Giannina not only because of the different exterior dimensions of the filter plate, but because the Giannina uses a different gasket. The E&B competition filter was designed to only work with Bialetti style gaskets.

>>19808574
There are stainless steel moka pots which have the same measures as bialetti aluminium pots, Giannina is not one of those. Notably as I said above, these compatible pots have all screw mounted boilers.
Check the Alessi 9090 because it may fit. I never did research on that one.

Look at him schitz.

>>19808585
Yes, the Alessi 9090 might fit. Unfortunately I can't seem to find any dimensions for the filter plate online. The gasket looks comparable at least.
The Giannina looks nicer in my opinion.

See >>19807673 and >>19807842. If you want an E&B filter in a stainless steel moka pot get a 6 cup Bialetti Venus, Kitty, or Musa. If you want the Giannina then skip the E&B filter because it will not fit. Personally, I've found that 3 cup models are good for a single serving and 6 cup models are good for two servings. The 3 cup holds around 15g of ground coffee while the 6 cup holds about 30g of ground coffee give or take a couple grams depending on grind size and bean.

>caking on makeup

>>19808828
Thank you informative anon. I think I will get a 3 cup E&B moka first because it’s cheaper and easier to get in the states, even though I like the Giannina more. I might pick up a competition filter and put it in my venus just to see what happens.

How are you gonna heat water?
Also that seems like a lot of stuff to keep around the office when a thermos is just one thing

>>19808890
definitely is but i dont care much for the flavor or texture. pour over allows for a lot of variety. alternatively i could bring an aeropress which has lots of variety but im not feeling that rn, maybe in the future ill swing back towards it

>>19808900
the kitchenette has a coffee maker (mid ass pike place roast) with a hot water spout, thinking i might bring a thermometer to see the temp of water it dispenses out of curiosity.
for a thermos i have to bring back and forth, its annoying because i walk to work so its all the extra weight. with this im leaving all my stuff there and bringing coffee beans

A reminder that this fucking idiot hoffmann thinks mint with chocolate is disgusting, and therefore he has garbage-tier taste.

>>19807895
Hey anon, I made them and just put them in the freezer (I’ll cook two of them on Thursday morning).

It was my first time and I had difficulties when I had to place the butter in the dough and make the layers, the butter leaked on the table and it was a mess, I guess that I should’ve kept it in the freezer 15 minutes prior to using it, however I’ll learn from these mistakes.

Pic related is how they turned out before the second leavening time.

They’re drowning in butter and are heavy, I guess that unless they leak all the butter when they cook they still will taste good.

I have a question if you or somebody ITT can help: how many hours prior to cooking them should I place them at room temp to thaw and leaven?

With brioches I take them out the freezer before going to sleep and place them in the oven at room temp for 8 hours and when I wake up they’re all swollen and nice, ready to be cooked, but I don’t know if this works with these croissants because I fear that the butter will melt.

>>19809017
I don't have an espresso maker so I can't make affogato. But that sounds incredibly wonderful.

>>19809146
What's room temperature for you? Butter shouldn't melt at 20°C.

>>19809223
22.4C

>>19809252
The butter will soften and might flatten the overall shape and structure, but it won't melt.

>>19809283
Ooook.
So can I leave the frozen croissants in the oven for the whole night (6~8 hours) and cook them safely?

Anyone know good caffeine free coffee, not looking for an alternative but for the taste of coffee that I can drink at night after I’ve had a bunch throughout the day

I’m still shocked every time someone says this ten replies into an argument. How many hours of your life do you think you’re gonna spend making coffee? Probably thousands. Is the idea that it can’t be a hobby coming from a place that assumes a hobby must absorb all your spare time every day? I spend more time making coffee than tending to my produce, yet I’d say gardening is one of my favorite hobbies.

This is the reason why this official went to shit, just like every official thread on this website.

TL;DR = a group of outsiders is dedicated to ruining the pacific conversation, derailing and attacking the prominent users with personal insults and doxxing to destroy social cohesion and sense of belonging in the community, they want you to leave this place and think that this place is filled with shit people and it’s person X and Y fault while in reality it’s a group of people paid for doing this.

The son of a bitch who insults us all and writes ad hominem shit while labelling us (this way it’s easier for them to identify regular posters while they gaslight other anons who are not aware of their schemes) while lamenting the death of this general is one of them.

Ignore these people and denounce the Talmud, do not trust anything they say.

lookin forward to koohee tomorrow morning
lets try to be positive, eh

My croissants. :3

They turned out visually good but they didn’t rise and they were dense inside, however the taste is good and therefore I’m ok with this.

I probably overworked the dough and stressed it when I fucked up the butter lamination and had to work fast, I’m under the impression that this made the dough too dense.

Oh well, next time I’ll improve. :D

this thread is more off topic blog posting and faggotry than coffee

Perhaps the butter was too soft and distorted the structure. Try proofing them in the fridge next time, or at colder room temperature (17°C – 19°C).

Bros, I took apart my Kingrinder K4 for cleaning but after putting it back I think the zero point is no longer calibrated and now it also makes a weird noise when spinning, as if it’s lightly scratching something.

>>19813601
I've taken my k6 apart several times and haven't had that problem. Maybe try disassembling and resembling it, and check if you flipped any of the parts wrong

>>19813607
Will do.

Also in the worst case scenario that I fucked my grinder, could I just buy a K0 or something and replace the burrs with the K6 ones?

>>19813611
Maybe, I'm not sure if they're swappable like that, but do keep in mind that the k4 and k6 have a different adjustment mechanism than the rest.

I guess that's the dichotomy of coffee enjoiers and coffee feinds.

>pic related

>>19813829
it can be. who are you to tell someone else it's not (unless it's adversly hurting someone?)

As the buddha said, to live is to suffer. Sisyphus has purpose. If we are not challenged by making a better, tastier, more interesting cup of coffee, what do we have? Can it be called living if coffee is merely a caffeine delivery mechanism? Why eat good food at all? Why not just eat grey nutrient dense slop for every meal? That is no life at all, in my opinion.

I saw some "espresso" pre-ground coffee at the grocery store (e.g. Bustelo). Can that be used in a moka? I'm thinking about getting one for when we have guests, and it would be slightly more convenient if we had grounds readily available.
Curious to see what would happen if I used my Greek or Turkish grounds in there, too, or maybe some Viet grounds. I'm guessing it wouldn't be great if you're far off the grind size like that, though.

>>19813838
oh.. ok. uh yeah.. *clears throat* yeah, me too. Also, I love Pit Bulls. Everything is great? Have you seen chatterbate? I love chatterbate. I alwaaaasys go there to wind down after a looong day of drinking coffee and savouring the flavors.

>>19813926
Espresso coffee is just coffee. There aren’t beans that work best and are thus known as espresso beans. That’s a marketing gimmick. Some beans certainly work better than others, subject to personal taste obviously, but preground espresso from the store probably won’t work as well as a good whole bean you like and would drink for non-espresso drinks.

Today I learned that Nespresso machines basically make turbo shots by extracting in 20 seconds or less and the result is a sweet, tasty and clear cup...of overpriced and stale coffee.

There are different types of pre-ground coffee depending on the type of coffee you want to make/the machine you want to use. Some brewing methods require finely ground, others coarsely ground.

>>19814630
>>19814838
I was more thinking of the grind size than the beans themselves, though bean quality is a fair point to consider.
I already make espresso at home, so I have good beans, it's just a hassle to make it for five people with my setup. I guess a more clear version of my question might be, "what level/range of grind fineness is appropriate for the moka, and are there easily-available pre-ground beans besides dedicated moka grounds that will match that?"

not reading that

>>19814712
Too busy spending two days per instagram post that noone gives a shit about.

>>19814742
Ok anon, don't laugh. kek.

I'm investigating why this happened, I'm torn between an excessive leavening (I left it frozen 6 hours to thaw and leaven in temp oven @ room temp) and the butter spilling inside the dough and fucking up the structure, because it leaked when I was laminating the dough.

Apart from that, the taste was good and the external puff pastry was crunchy and as I expected it to be, so considered that this is my first try at croissants (I'm good with normal brioches) I'm happy.

I still have 7 croissants in the freezer and I will try different thawing times and thawing them in the fridge + leavening at room temp 1 hour at least as the other anon suggested me.

Try it. I suspect you will get some channeling. To reduce channeling cut some paper filters to size. Put one on the bottom of the funnel below the coffee grounds, and put one on the filter plate. Adhere the filter paper with some hot water. Make sure it doesn't cover the gasket. WDT to break up clumps. Use the lowest possible heat to increase contact time and puck saturation. Use one gram less coffee than you usually would. All this should give you the best chance at getting a nice extraction out of espresso or turkish ground coffee in a Moka brewer.

>>19814859

Definitely looks like the butter was too soft and permeated the layers. Aslo seems the long proof significantly weakened the gluten structure.

>>19815662
Would you suggest thawing the frozen croissants in the room temp oven for half the time? So about 3 hours total (thawing + proofing)?

>>19814691
>the result is a sweet, tasty and clear cup
I'm not sure it I would describe any cup I've ever had out of a nespresso as sweet, clear, or tasty.
More often than not, it's just extremely bitter.

Chef Philippe suggests, in his croissants recipe https://www.meilleurduchef.com/fr/recette/croissant.html to leave them at room temp when you go to bed. They'll thaw and proof while you sleep.

That could work. I would suggest putting them someplace a little cooler. I would also suggest baking one that was thawed and proofed in the fridge and baking another straight out of the freezer just to see what happens. If there was indeed some major flaw in the lamination or if this is more temperature based. With yeasted dough, especially highly enriched yeasted dough like a croissant, you should be very mindful of ovenproofing as that ruins the structure.

>>19815955
That’s what I did and always do when I make brioches too (I use Manitoba flour for these) and with the latter works wonderfully because I get pic related results.

IMHO it’s the lamination that was fucked up because the butter instantly become soft for whatever reason, next time I’ll try to keep it in the freezer some minute to cool it down more and keep more space between the butter and the edges of the dough.

>>19815965
Yeah will try doing this, thanks.

Meant over-proofing.

I know this is the general for people who know their shit and care about actual quality, but I'm not much of a coffee guy and was gifted some gingerbread flavored ground coffee and don't want to waste a gift.

Reporting back on the specialty goff Korica from Costa Rica. You can clearly taste the honey, and some of the orange acidity, but orange is not as clear as the honey. Only if you slurp your sip though.
Would buy again.

I just buy whatever the cheapest kpods are at the store. Right now its a medium roast "Doughnut shop" for $12 for 36 pods. Or if I get free ground coffee from the food pantry. Fuck coffee snobs, as long as it has caffiene in it I dont care. No sugar, just a splash of milk.
