>>22250060Down to my last 60g of wush :/ Still have some honduran for espresso. Might do a nice little brown sugar shaken cortado in the morn. This month's coffee can't come quick enough.
>>22250067ive got a whole bag of wush resting right now
>>22250072Ethiopian or Colombian?
>>22250076Colombian natural
>>22250081Nice. Hope its a funky one.
how come it's le bad to put milk and sugar into my coffee, but it's le good for you to put condensed milk into yours?

>>22250491Had a maple oatmilk latte while listening to this. Comfy. Snagging a good copy of the movie too.
>>22250553You’re gay

>>22250564Everyone's a little gay.>>22250618Nope.

>>22250428Where is that child's mother?
My new beans won't be here until at least next friday. Might be a week of frozen panamas.
i ate the coffee beans and now i am constipated
>>22250762So you eat so much food youre overweight now and your testosterone dropped and youre full of estrogen.
>>22250762Le me guess, you pumped the pork full of estrogen?
>>22250960>>22250985Actually no believe it or not.
late night moka
late night blogposting
>>22251419thats a short blog
Bros, why do aluminum moka pots make a better brew than the stainless ones? I don't want to use the alzie metal.
The anti anime /ctg/ godhead was right. Took apart the kinu and immediately started getting grounds that looked how I expected them to.Taste is still off but at least I know I'm in the right ballpark.Thank you, anti anime /ctg/ cult leader. You crazy faggot.
>>22251691Still gotta work on my technique to prevent the grounds from sticking to the sides but it's literally night and day difference between before taking apart the grinder and after.>Dose: 30g>Beans: Passenger Divino Niño>Dripper: Hario V60>Grinder: Kinu M47 Phoenix>Grind: 3.2 rotations from zero>Water: 500g>Temperature: 93°C>Method: James Hoffmann Ultimate V60>Bloom: 60g for 45 seconds>First Pour: 300g by 1:15>Final Pour: 500g>Drawdown: 3:35–3:45>Body: Light, somewhat watery>Flavor: Smooth but muted, lacking sweetness>Acidity: Very slight sour aftertaste>Astringency: Slight lingering dryness>Bitterness: Minimal to noneThinking of going 3.4 at 92°C for tomorrow. Are those the right variables to tweak given my perceived results?
>>22251691You're telling me you sperged out for two days because you were unwilling or unable to read? There's just no way. Pretty sure I was trying to break your top tier/meme grinder for no reason.>I'd rezero the grinder, and/or pull the shaft and burrs to make sure everything is seating down correctly.I think I see the issue. I used the term "rezero" and you started thinking about cartoons.>>22251700Given my prior results, what would be the incentive to help you?
>>22251736
>>22251736Nah jk.You don't have to help me. You don't have to do anything, this is the Internet after all.Unfortunately 4channel is primarily an anonymous image board so you might help me in the future without realizing it.Regardless, thanks for the advice and sorry for the harsh words yesterday. Take care, anon.
>>22251765How many minutes did it take you to disassemble and clean? Under 5?
>>22251770About 5, yes. After you mentioned >>22250533 I decided to really give it a try. I didn't realize it was a common occurrence and didn't assume you had dealt with a similar issue before.
>>22251778On top of all of that I also just bought that grinder like a week ago. Surprising that it required being taken apart basically fresh from the manufacturer. Novice mindset, I suppose.
>>22251778>didn't realize it was a common occurrence and didn't assume you had dealt with a similar issue beforeCompletely different grinder. He had a Kingrinder K6. I've just been wrangling retards towards better coffee for years.>>22251791Burr rides on a spring held by a nut held by a different screw. Bumps happen in shipping, springs do as springs do. If I remember right from my 2019 phoenix, handle comes in the box detached, everything tight. That exact problem can happen when you drop the grinder too.
>>22251691Wait, what was wrong with the Kinu to warrant disassembly? It wasn't calibrated right or some shit?
>>22249997
>>22251798>handle comes in the box detached, everything tightYeah, that's how mine was.>That exact problem can happen when you drop the grinder too.I keep mine in the case stored away, pretty anal about its well being.>>22251836For whatever reason (probably due to shipping as seen here >>22251798) literally every time I ground anything at a 4.0 the grounds came out with the size and consistency of nerds candy. Brews tasted awful despite "adjusting" the grind. After disassembly/recalibration, grind is significantly finer and the finished product (while not dialed in completely yet) is clearly on the way to tasting gud.>t. omitting the anime/shitflinging sperg out
help me. i’m a dumbass, which cut is actually the thigh?
>>22251901After this cup of coffee I'm coming to Fort Wayne and gutting you.
>>22251574everything has a price
>>22251736>unwilling or unable to readon brand for /ctg/ thobeit
>>22251901the thigh is the one that looks like a thigh
>>22251765don't apologize to the asylum patient. it gives him the wrong idea.
>>22251897>keep mine in the case stored away>pretty anal about its well beingThe original ones just came in a cardboard tube. It sounds like you're putting the handle on and taking it off every brew. That's retarded. Leave the handle on, keep the grinder on your counter, use the travel case for traveling.>>22251836Now it seems to me like he just fucked up and didn't tighten down the stop all the way.
>>22251901>these are the modern subhumans allowed onlineDepressing
>>22251963>It sounds like you're putting the handle on and taking it off every brew.Correct. Besides being mildly time consuming is there any other downside to this? Unnecessary handling/more potential for misconfigs seem possible but I've always been sure to tighten down the screw holding the handle in place snugly when putting the handle back on.Either way I'll heed and keep it out. More convenient at the very least.
(Good) manual espresso at home.Is it possible or just a meme?
>>22252071>Is it possibleyes
>>22251875What'd you mean to post?
anybody drinkin coffee tonight?
>>22252102yes
>>22252109lemme see
>>22251700>gotta work on my technique to prevent the grounds from sticking to the sidesThat's a reasonable amount to be stuck on the walls. Any cleaner than that and you risk greater amounts of bypass.
>>22251963>keep the grinder on your counterkeep it in a cabinetkeeping it on the countertop will inevitably lead to dust in your burrs>inb4 'i'm le cleaner than you!!!1!'you have just as much skin as anybody else
>>22251901Sir, the chicken general is two threads down.
>>22252130I wonder if there's an easy solution for that minuscule problem. I cut out a piece of paperboard/cereal box for mine back in the day.
>>22252120mmmm... no.
>>22252138is it that difficult to open a (cabinet) door? maybe manual grinding isn't for you
i bet you keep your filter papers out on the countertop gross
>>22252135chicken time general
>>22252165I don't even manually turn on my Wug pal.>>22252167Yeah. Xbloom filters come in a box.
>>22252130is this a real problem?if you use it every day don't you flush out the microscopic amount of dust with coffee?
>>22252236burrs can't grind through dust idiot
>>22252247dust mites can't melt steel burrs
the coffee beans still have not came out yet. my colon is broken
>>22252273then you better go catch it!
constipation time general
As a coffeelet who murders 2-3 daily cups of instant powder (Nescafe Gold) with loads of artificial creamer (International delight) and is well satisfied, what painless preparation method might I enjoy to bump up to "real" covfefe? Keeping in mind it will still be heavily cut with creamer so as to not taste like utter shit as all black coffee does regardless of quality or preparation. Mess is unacceptable, unless it can be carried into the next day.
>>22252347here is your covfefe
>>22252347take this and leave from this place
>>22252347imagine going into a thread about steak and going "what is the best way to prepare and cook a nice steak, and keep in mind I will be cooking it well done and adding steak sauce because bloody chewy beef is disgusting"good coffee tastes good black
>>22252347clever + encore/peppe
>>22252382right.., but this isn't a steak threadnot sure why you would imagine that it was
>>22252370I don't know what that is. But it looks like what I do now with an extra vessel.>>22252382You can't fathom how people would like different things? I realize autism is rampant on this site but you are professing your subjective opinion as objective fact. I come here asking how to better the product, not how to contract OCD and align my coffee particles before pressing.I'm looking for a step up without doing some stupid K-cup crap or ritualistic autism. So far Korean coffee sachets and freeze dried granules dosed with creamer have been sufficient. Do you have a suggestion or do you just want to gatekeep extreme and ridiculous practices forever?
>>22252467it's coffee
>>22252470Uh huh.When I brew tea I steep and dump the used leaves, rinse the infuser and done. What's the coffee equivalent?I don't want a new appliance.I don't want ritual.I don't want plastic waste.Why's this so hard?
>>22252483And by plastic I also mean paper, i don't want to keep a stack of single use strainers or whatever and another vessel in the cupboard.
>>22252483that is the coffee equivalent the procedure is the same
>>22252483>What's the coffee equivalent?you put the coffee grinds into here, put it over your cup, and then pour hot water. take it out and dump the used coffee grounds when you are done with it
>>22252488>>22252490Okay thanks.
>>22251916>everything has a price Would it be possible to passivate the aluminum somewhat, so it's not as toxic? Fr'ex, boiling a water + vinegar + salt solution in the moka pot, to create the inactive oxide layer?
>>22252504no
>>22252504
Hello guys, newfag here. I just found out if you drink coffee with 1 or 2 pinches of sugar, the taste is better than 1 or 2 teaspoons of sugar. If I add more sugar in my coffee, the caffeine doesn't work.
My company laid off a bunch of people and they are also downsizing the office, so the boss was giving out everything not strictly work related, and I stole an aeropress, what an I in for?I don't even have any filter for it, need to buy a 300 pack on amazon, how do I make it not a disappointment? I exclusively drink extremely dark roast supermarket espresso
>>22252494lmfao
>>22249997wtf is he doin
I ordered a kingrinder k6
>>22252742a lot of drip machines suck at actually delivering boiling water and getting that water to actually go through the coffee grounds and not just dig a hole through or flow around itif that's what you're used to you'll definitely taste more of what your coffee has to offer, whether or not that's a good thing with vantablack preground supermarket coffee is something you'll have to find out yourself
>>22252745What's so funny?
>>22252742>exclusively drink extremely dark roastsay no more https://aeropress.com/pages/how-to-usei'd rocomend 80c for dark roast thoughever
>>22252742>he got the office's unattended AeropressYour coffee will taste fishy as some intern definitely tried to wank with it from not knowing what it was
>>22253045>preferring to scrape beans out of a metal sieve everyday instead of spending $0.03 on a paper filter for an actual proper brewerHave fun with that.
>>22253045pay him no mind. he's miserable. you can also get one of these things for cold brew that stays in the jug. this is just about the least "ritual" method you can use.just dont dump the grinds down your sink.
cohee time :)
Bought a milk frother, been drinking pumpkin spice lattes every day for a week.
>>22253104you dont need to scrape anything out. you tip it over and it falls out
>>22252855https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_Q-fOj9Mho

>>22253045nothing, enjoy
post yfw that first sip (of coffee)
>>22249997What /ctg/ opinion of these niggas?I’m thinking about getting one.
>>22253698meme
>>22253698Showpiece, makes bad coffee
>>22253698they're fine. you're probably better off getting a hario switch
>>22253680
>>22253372I have a finum and significant amounts of residual grinds stick to the mesh even after aggressively knocking it. It's just too much of a hassle to clean over simply throwing away the grounds neatly retained inside a paper filter.
just swish em round the pot a bit and dump out into the compost
it finally came out
(reposting because neXT loves to rotate my fucking images for no reason)First brew with the Cafec Abaca+ filters and the taste is much clearer but I don't think I have everything dialed in properly yet. Smooth, medium body but weak overall. I can't tell how much of this is placebo on my end (if any). Using purified drinking water as well, big jugs from Costco.The drawdown took significantly longer with the Abaca, up from 3:20 to 4:15 this morning. That's after grinding coarser by 0.1 (3.4 to 3.5 today).So far literally everything anti-anime guy said has improved my brews immensely. I guess a glass stirring stick, melo drip, and origami are next on the list.>Dose: 30 g>Water: 500 g>Temperature: 92°C> Method: Hoffman
i saw it
>>22254062>neXTtime to upgrade unc
>>22254062Bottled 'drinking water' sucks for coffee. Too hard. You'd be better off using pure distilled water in all honesty.
If you're feeling fancy you can mix 3 parts distilled to 1 part drinking.
>>22254066This shit is bad for coffee?
>>22254086yeah man
horrible for coffee
>with minerals added for taste
>>22254086it's kind of like using honey or maple syrup instead of white sugar. you want the most neutral tasting water if you want to pair well with any of your coffees. the most neutral water is without minerals
>>22254092>>22254094Goddammit. I thought purified meant like baseline water. Didn't even see the added minerals bullshit.
Is this shit a meme or not?
>>22254123>first world resident? yes>third world resident? no
>>22254123No, regardless of how first world you are. Might be easier to just use a decent local bottled water that matches certain speshulty coffee guidelines. You can probably goodle what's good in your area.
>>22254123how do you even find scams like this? old people mailing lists? played bingo and gave your address to a shitty site hoping to win free adult diapers for a month?
>>22254154>You can probably goodle what's good in your area.Looking into this now.>>22254162>how do you even find scams like this?idk man I'm just spitballing here.
>>22254162Coffee consists of like 95% water, stupid fucking retard. Quality and taste matter.
>>22254168i only use hplc grade water to brew my coffee, dont fucking talk to me
>>22254168>Quality and taste matterExactly. That's why the first world gets it straight from the tap lol.
>>22254062>literally everything anti-anime guy said has improved my brews immenselyFunny how that works out huh?
>>22254178What country do you live in?
>>22254182I acknowledge wisdom where it is due.
>>22254188Good, now don't buy any more gear for a year. TWW is okay but full packets add way magnesium sulfate and calcium citrate. Jacks the hardness to the roof. Most people are using 1/3-/1/2 pack per gal(or mixing a packet to the full gallon, then diluting that mixture down).
he doesnt write those dossiers for nothin
>>22253680>they gave me dark roast
>>22253680>no milk>no sugar>no chocolate>no vanilla syrup>no creamer
ok we get it
>>22253680>barista gave me a half caff shot instead of quarter caff>sugar free vanilla syrup>whole milk
>>22253698>French RoastDarks need minimal agitation (least dense bean roast type). Only downside is percolation time. And not getting the filtration of kidney stressor compounds pour over filters would catch. And marginal bean efficiency with coarser grind.
>>22253698It's my favorite way of making coffee, but it can be finicky if you have a bad french press that can't hold the piston up. Brew time is long, you need coarse coffee and it's messy to clean, but it makes very light and soft tasting coffee if you like that
>soft tasting coffeewhy the hell would i want that?
>>22253680>coffee is too hot
>can't hold the piston up
I'll be visiting the US in November, last time I visited I couldn't get a proper coffee, does anyone knows where I can get it?
>>22254628Where in the US?
>>22254628I enjoy looking at this cup, but I feel it would be unpleasant to drink from.
>>22254654>Where in the US?I'll visit by brother in Massachusetts, then stay 3 days on Vegas before going back home.
idk manaren't there better things to drink in vegas than coffee?
>>22253680because I always wake up late as fuck and have 10 minutes to prepare and drink the coffee
>>22254680So, is there any unique food I should taste in the US?
>>22254674tell your brother to buy the good shit
>>22254684you ever had a burger before?
>>22254693Last time I visited I tried quite a few burgers, found them to be a bit too oily and sugary, it's hard to put in words, but they were sweet in a wrong way, like soda was there.
>>22254670How else you'd drink coffee if not in one of these cups?
>>22254694You had the wrong burgers.
>>22254694It's because they were using HFCS instead of sugar.
>>22254695There are an innumerable number of cups out there, Anon.
>>22254628It would be common sense to visit a local specialty shop, even if you'd only wanna buy some beans for home brewing>>22254710Why the hell would you sweeten your burger anyway?
>>22254739>Why the hell would you sweeten your burger anyway?Fast food joints in the US add HFCS on the bread to make it taste sweet, no idea on the why.
Bake your own bread.Assemble your own burgers.Brew your own coffee.
Remember like 6 months ago when all these eurofaggots came over for the world cup and loved literally everything? They were stuffing their suitcases full of Hawaiian rolls and bottles of ranch.
propaganda
>>22254782I think the general opnion about the US during the world cup is:>Even with all the wealth in the world to buy their way into hosting an event, Americans cannot help but display all the reasons why they should be despised and pitted.or>An event to make Israelis look generous, Gulf Arabs look humble, the German look manly and the Brazilians look White.
>>22254760This. It especially counts for coffee in recent years.The general public has gotten used to the taste of soot so much they refuse to associate coffee with any other flavor.Who knows how long until third wave coffee at least reaches the same level of cult status as craft beer, where people would be genuinely interested to try it out without nonsensical prejudice, let alone make their own high quality coffee cups at home
>>22254793cope nuke
>>22254818The only cope is pretending people who had to endure visiting the US to see some sports have anything good to say about the country and it's people.
>>22254825tsope nuka

Thoughts on this grinder?https://www.baratza.com/en-us/product/virtuosotm-zcg587I was looking at the customer reviews for the Ode2 and a guy said that this grinder offered basically the same quality for $150 less. Is this true, or is it not that simple?
>>22259196Its just a fancier Encore.>Is this true, or is it not that simple?The 64mm flat burrs in the Ode 2 shit all over the 40mm hand grinder cone burrs in the Virtuoso.
>>22249997is he remembering how each tastes, or is this all a single batch being tasted for consistency, what is going on here? why would this ever make sense with coffee?
>>22259247He's serving an event and making sure the cups are all even idiot.
>>22259249well hes doing a terrible job then
>>22259249>He's serving an eventnot putting the same spoon into his mouth and back into the next cup 50x, he's not
>>22259302You'd be surprised the shit that goes on in catering.
Is it true that the quality ceiling on 20g or less pour over doses is higher than that of 30g?
>>22259196Both the encore/virtuoso and ode grinders are similar in that they use excellent burrs that are ruined by the grinders total lack of burr alignment and stability. The Eureka Peppe has obsoleted both of them.>>22259237>64mm burrs shit all over the cone burrs in the VirtuosoSome of them maybe.>in the OdeLol no.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5jeyF1u01k>>22259334Usually the higher the dose the higher the ceiling.
>>22259451Again, all Eureka grinders outside the Atom75 are dogshit. And thats only good if you're making traditional 9 bar spro. Not sure why you're so intent on shilling the peppe. Because its in an aluminum housing? Like chinese hand grinders? Shitty burrs are shitty burrs. If you're looking for small brewing flats df54+ditting steels is probably better money spent.https://www.robertasami.com/burrtopia/54mm-ditting-steel>I easily prefer this burr to the 98mm stock burr in the EK43. It’s a closer call between this and a conical 48mm heptagonal, I think I’d take this by a narrow margin.>>22259334Theres a reason all the new meme brewers use 01/155 filters. Also a reason why they brew a cup for each judge instead of a big carafe to split in the meme brewing competitions.
>>22250358>leStop doing that cringe faggotry.
>>22259196bad
coffee time :)
>>22259487My assessment from all the information I've seen is that the eureka 50mm brew burrs perform quite well, potentially even equivalently to the ditting steels. The 50mm all purpose and espresso burrs look like they produce the typical eureka mud. The df54+ dittings are $100 more than a peppe+brews (even more if you're in an area that sells the peppe with brews preinstalled) and needs some fiddling with the electricals to reverse the rotation. If you're up for that then that's fine.>I easily prefer this burr to the 98mm stock burr in the EK43Robert should probably clear up what burr version he's talking about since EK burrs are all over the map.>shilling the peppeOnly on posts asking about cheap obsolete electric grinders like the encore/ode/opus. Especially the Ode as that grinder does a particular disservice in its ability to house expensive high performing burr sets while simultaneously ruining the grind quality with its total lack of burr alignment and stability. All the beginners who don't know any better getting turned off of the hobby after spending hundreds on the god forsaken ode+ssp mp combo after getting waxed and waned on the forums about "high clarity" and just ending up with perpetual harshness and astringency.Also are you wuganon? Are you using lab sweets or special steels?

Just had nescafe tasters choice instant coffee with milk
>>22259927Just had a little 10g brew of bronze tip Thai Sunda Gesha/Typica Sunda. Only 21g left of it. Probably going to push the absolute fuck out of these last two brews
>>22259969sounds like the perfect d27 cup
>>22259983Sworks dripper + Oshi + Sibarist Fast Flat. This shit really really reminds me of panama gesha, but its just not all the there. Its great and yet disappointing. Super light florals, citrus,crisp apple, incredibly clean in spite of it being a red honey. But the lack of density at 1100masl is apparent. Its woody, almost hollow, finishes super dry. Super silky in the mouth though. Worth $132/lb? Probably not. Interesting though.

Is this true that Italians from the south like very strong dark coffee ? They don't rely on arabica because too soft and floral
>>22260828Yes, that's why "robusto" is an Italian word.

could do with a little salt

Started having chest and artery pains just after buying nice beans and a cup for my Bialetti. Now I can barely tolerate any amount. What do?
>>22261635>and a cup for my Bialettidid you test the cup for cadmium?
>>22261637in all honesty it was less than 2$... but i just had a bit too much coffee (again)
>>22261638lighter roasts have more caffeine

Coffee at 3pm. Should I do it?
I am drinking Folger's right now. It isn't as bad as I thought desu.
>>22261635Excess caffeine. Alternatively, potential mold and/or pesticide contaminants. Water down significantly.
You may not like it, but this is what peak coffee looks like
What would you say it's the best brewing method for coffee that will sit on a thermos through a whole shift? I'm starting an overnight job where I can't just go buy/make my coffe so I'll need to bring it myself.
>>22263366always
>>22263749you are what you eat
>>22263837French Press.
what're y'all sippin' on tonight?
>>22263837Get a kleen kanteen TKPro Thermos and anything you put in there will remain hot the entire shift, so the answer there would be "whatever type of coffee you like the most.If you're okay with cold coffee then you could make cold brew, put however many cups worth of concentrate into the thermos with some ice and then pour it over milk or cold water when you want it later.
A new cafe opened. I bought a coffee but in the waiting area I saw bagged beans and noticed it's cut with robusta... Never going there again.
>>22264663Shame them with a google review.
Dreo stays winning.
>drink coffee>start sweating>clothes feel soiled>smell like cat piss>still drink it every day
>>22265061i don't think it's the coffee
sorry been busyfinna have some wushwush lateri opened the bag to put in a container last night and it smelled like beetroot ice cream
I've been not drinking caffeine for few weeks now, I had some issues like muscle tension for a time but ibuprofein works for that.Im not sure what the point would be to start again. Some sort of "energy" infusion in the mornings? Seems like a pointless addiction. Sure coffee with oatly and sweeteners tastes fine but its no big loss.
today my robusta tasted like acetone it was great
