Just got a switch brehs. I'm using lance's technique but without the no bypass or mono autism. It's great. It's impossible to fuck up. Great coffee everytime. No need for pouring samurai training. (I can have normal people brew good coffee everytime with this) Not buying any pourover gear from now on. Consistency is just too good to sacrifice for measly gains.
It's also much less of pain to use than an aeropress and more flexible. I love it.

Anon that ordered a bambino a few days ago, I got it today and have been fucking around with it (as evidenced by several posts itt). I haven't been able to pull what I'd call a good shot of espresso so far, it's all either too bitter or too sour. My coffee probably isn't helping because I'm using my backup grocery store beans, I did order nicer ones but didn't notice the roaster is on vacation so they won't arrive for a while and I don't want to buy from someone else and end up with double the coffee I want.
I did get a confidence boost just now because I tried steaming milk with it for the first time and when combining it with the coffee it tasted about on par with most cafes I've been to. Not that that's some ideal to aspire to, but I feel better knowing that I've managed to achieve at least that.
Excuse the mess, I've been experimenting with it and only really cleaning up the bare minimum to keep the parts I'm using clean.

I like my switch. I just used it for a week before switching back to my origami tism setup. I definitely prefer the origamis more, but if you can't get you can't get your brews consistent the switch is a solid braindead option. Good brews going full immersion and room to improve if you get bored. I think the ceado hoop is probably another great pick for lazy but great coof.

If your water sucks you'll be fighting a losing battle. You should aim for dialling in a good shot in regards to shot time and output not necessarily taste.

So like a standard 30 second shot time with an output of like 1:2.

You can start with distilled water and thst will give you a very neutral shot some say is sort of bland. They sell packets of minerals you add to 1 gal containers of distilled water and they work great and are quite convenient.

Usually it's whether they're more resistant to producing fines or coarse bits. Also the adjustment itself is often tailored more to pourover (bigger steps, wider range) or espresso (small range, very fine adjustment) but that's not the case with the k4 and k6 since they both have the same adjustment and took the path of "just give them a trillion clicks" to cover both ranges. Some grinders have more clever solutions, or are specialized for one or the other.

Today I went to my old friendly neighborhood roaster and bought 2 blends specifically to be used with my moka and to make espresso.

I chose 1 decaffeinated (100% arabica from Brazil and Mexico/Colombia) and 1 Italian blend called Piave which is 20% Indian robusta and 80% arabica from Brazil and Mexico.

I didn't take pictures of the beans (will post them tomorrow) but I just tried the Piave blend with my moka.

Oily beans, dark roast (not quite dark as your typical Italian roast but dark enough) and nice strong smell.

The coffee is balanced and you can feel the robusta because it hits you as soon as you take your first sip with notes of chocolate, hazelnuts and wood, maybe a hint of earthy flavor. The aftertaste is quite bitter, but it's pleasant and woody.

I need to try the decaffeinated but so far the 100% arabica is their best blend imho, lots of sweetness and malt.

Very very good prices though.

You did good anon, it's basically a Lelit Anna with the PID and an added grinder which you can skip using.

As for quality, don't expect anything exceptional or particularly good, it does its job and it's well suited to the machine if you don't own a grinder.

Let's put it this way: if you're not a coffee enthusiast/autistic person then it's good for what it is even though being built in to the machine you can't open it and clean it inside, so at worse you will use it for some time and upgrade at some point, but if you're an enthusiast you may want to upgrade to something more precise and uniform, with better control like a 1Zpresso J-Max or K-Ultra which are specific for espresso.

Idk about that. But just butter coffee is what I would call it. I find it takes some edge off of strong coffee without diluting the taste like milk does. Really don't like milk coffee. But personally find a coffee with a teaspoon of butter quite nice, on occasion.

Have you ever heard of/tried tibetan butter tea? Long duration boiled tea with yak butter added. Someone just mentioned it over in /tea/ because I've got some bricks of extremely cheap tea meant for export to tibet. Apparently drinking it is what gave Dave Asprey the idea for "bulletproof" coffee.
>In the late 2000s, lifestyle author and the CEO of Bulletproof, Dave Asprey, returned from Tibet after drinking yak butter tea at high altitudes. In the years that followed, he began to promote coffee mixed with butter, which swept the United States and became a favourite among fitness enthusiasts and those on low-carbohydrate, high-fat diets.

Why didn't I think of that... I have pic rel which I use as a kettle for tea but I can probably just use that for pour-overs instead of my electric kettle with a basic small opening as a spout. It's like 800ml so it seems pretty good, thanks for the idea. Now I just gotta find a good pour over starter kit or something off Amazon.

Grinders have gotten progressively cheaper over the last couple years. In 2018 you were looking at $300+ kinus and comandantes, in 2019 kinu dropped a cheaper model for $200,the chinese companies scrambled to copy it giving you 1zpresso jx for ~150, then an ex 1z exec made a cheaper clone of it for $88 in the k4.
>Now I just gotta find a good pour over starter kit or something off Amazon
Buy a hario mizudashi as your carafe. Its a cold brewer that uses heat safe glass so you can pull double duty with it. The big 1L one is like $18. Then snag a $8 plastic v60 and a pack of cafec filters. If you can push that budget a little bit, hario switches are only $27 on amazon and plastic origami size 2s are only $24 on slowpoursupply.

>Is this the Continental with robusta?

Yes, it's the lightest blend with robusta they offer (80/20).

They offer various blends down to 30% arabica and 70% robusta, I tried one espresso with the 70/30 blend and it was good but the bitterness was becoming stronger for my likeness.

This 80/20 blend is very good but as I said my heart goes to the 100% arabica which has the best aftertaste I've ever experienced.

Still, these blends with robusta shine when brewed with the moka, since they're basically made for it.

Tomorrow I'll try the Aeropress cold brew for breakfast, with milk, and the other methods.

Also, I'm pretty positive that this blend would make a 10/10 tiramisù.

It circulates water through the coffee, the water it's pushing up comes down into the same reservoir it came from, so it loops infinitely. It results in very overextracted and burned coffee (because you're constantly heating up the already brewed coffee as well).

any tips to choosing geshas? i had one last year from a different roaster, was good delicate, sweet and delicious. had two this year both from the same roaster, again the panama was good but columbian wasn't. Although initially i did fuck up, later i pushed the ratio from 1:14 to 1:16 and flavors opened up a lot. i see ninety plus or some random farms, no clue what's good, or which origin is on average v good. do i get washed? or should i fuck with anaerobic? natural? what are interesting taste profiles you went for and got good results?

I'm not sure if next time I want to try the 30% robusta and 70% arabica, maybe I'll buy 100 grams just for the sake of trying it.

These are blends for the moka and espresso specifically, in the Aeropress they come out tasty but sweet, unless you use the Prismo but it's still 80% as strong as when brewed with the moka.

is it wrong to be completely satisfied with this? Got it as a gift from my folks. Use local roasters and just make plain lattes and cappuccinos. I make my own vanilla syrup for my girlfriend (male) and will occassionally buy salted caramel syrup for myself, though I usually just prefer a brown sugar cube in a cappuccino.

I really want to learn how to make the syrup for a ginger latte that I had when I visited my sister in the midwest, it was spicy, sweet, intense and super flavorful. But there's no recipe. I tried making ginger syrup which just completely kills the spiciness of ginger, and then I tried squeezing ginger juice raw which I discovered curdles milk.

Anyone know how the fuck to get spicy ginger syrup in a latte without the milk curdling?

i usually stay away from anaerobic naturals and would definitely apply that to geshas. it can get reeeeaaall funky. washed is preferred but naturals can be good too. you really just have to go about it like they're any other specialty coffee and you won't know if you like them until you've had them.

I can't for the life of me eliminate minor channeling though, always one hole when looking at a bottomless portafilter that spray coffee to the side no matter if i use IMS basket, user water screens, or adjust grind/dose/tamp/wdt. is it just the way it pumps water, or perfect syrupy slowmo shots from high end machines is actually rare? don't get me wrong, there's not really any defects in the cup but I just hate the mess of it

You'll only get super syrupy "rattail" shots from beans that are roasted too dark or are way too fresh and need more time to offgas. Oily beans+co2 make the instagrammers cum themselves.
>always one hole when looking at a bottomless portafilter that spray coffee to the side
If its happening consistently it could just be a fucked up jagged hole in your basket. I'd try a bottom paper filter before snagging a new basket.

its not a standardized definition so depending on who is farming/processing/roasting/selling it could mean totally different things.
but generally the more accurate info you have on beans the better.
and "single origin" is just another data point to refine the accuracy with.
like "oh ok this bean is this variety from this farm from this farmer and it was processed at this place and it was roasted by this company and then it was sold to me"

The good cheap hand grinders are knockoffs of the expensive German ones(zp6 being the exception, it's a tweaked etzinger design). The good benchtop hand grinders are 5-8x more expensive than the kinu and comandantes, but use a shittier burr design. Give it a couple years and you'll have 83mm comandante geometry for $500.
>>19510514
The original kinus would lock at 0, then some asshole on homebarista fucked his up by grinding at lock with a Makita so they adjusted 0 a bit further out. If grinding with a c40 is that big of a deal, there's always the gawoody. The c60 should also be way easier with it's longer arm.

Just bought a Baratza Encore for my first burr grinder. Good choice for a (relative) poorfag and a french press enjoyer? Seems like the most common issues people have with grinders is imperfect uniformity and losing grounds to the grinder. Anyone know how they really fare there?

I also have one. I don't do any sifter fuckery, but while I'm sure it's not quite as consistent as real expensive stuff I haven't had any real consistency issues like I had with my Krups grinder. I don't make espresso with it but it's been good in the moka pot.

It does have some issues with static and getting grounds everywhere if you're not careful. Pop a few drops of water in with the beans before you grind them and after grinding rock it back/tap the front down a few times to know all the grounds out of the burrs and it will avoid almost all the mess.
