>COOL

I was promised some cold brew extravaganza.
I did not get any.

>>19396404
Not a big loss since cold brew is inherently shit

>>19396410
How come?

>>19396419
Extraction is a function of temperature and time and cold water simply cannot extract all of the flavor molecules from coffee that hot water can no matter how much time you give it

>>19396404
Sorry anon I forgot to post.

Well basically I made 60 grams cold brew + 60 grams cold water with ice cubes and drank it. Wasn’t impressed but it’s my fault for using pre ground moka coffee with part of robusta in the blend.

Next time I’ll try again with a specialty and medium grind.

Pic related.

>>19396488
>you can't heckin cold brew because you just can't okay!

>>19396535
Yes

>>19396513
Don't worry. The SanAlberto seems tasty, also only woman project it seems.
I haven't made cold brew this year yet, we'll see when it's hot as fuck.

Have you tried the bumble coffee?

>>19396857
Can you explain what the fuck bumble coffee is instead of being a faggot for no reason? Nobody knows what that is.

>>19397185
>bumble coffee
>made with orange juice, espresso, and a dash off caramel, and is served over ice.
sounds revolting.

>>19397316
Yes it does. So why would he post that? Coffee plus orange plus sweet is a recipe for a vomit flavor drink.

Normally a simple man but had to pull a shot on ice its a hot day today. Tastes watery as you would expect. Should I get one of those metal balls?

>>19398120
yes :)
do you like your deck?
i miss my deck :(

>>19398123
Yes this time of year with wfh its very nice

>>19398165
how do you clean that glass
dishwasher?
i wanted to buy one like that but felt like i would just scratch it because im very thorough when i wash the dishes
(i dont trust robots to do it better than i can)

>>19398173
What the fuck anon it’s a motherfucking glass, you can wash it using your hand and a drop of soap. Holy shit the levels of autism and retardation itt.

>>19398180
i use this on everything
i put at least 20 seconds of scrubbing into everything even glass that has had milk in it and i had just finished.
i just dont trust shit unless i scrub it.

>>19398173
I dishwasher it like a human bean. Bodum has instructions online if you want to geek out

>>19396288
Looks like a beer on the moon to me

The instructions that came with my manual grinder says that I need to disassemble it and clean everything once every month.

I use it 3 times every day with 8~15 grams of beans each time, realistically do I need to do this every month?

It’s been almost 2 months since I’ve bought it and never disassembled, I just clean the outer burrs every day with a brush.

>Tried a single origin Brazilian goffee last night at a cafe
>It was good, but it tasted like good Colombian with more nutty flavors.

Roaster man sold these to me as "dark roast" but im not convinced, no oils etc. Did I get sold a half baked bean?

>>19398120
Enjoy the goffee

Cold Hebrew using Alan Adler’s Aeropress recipe but with a Jewish twist.

Original recipe was 15 gr beans, 65 gr cold water and stirring for 1 minute.

My recipe is 15 gr beans, 130 gr cold water and stirring for 1 minute.

Why doubling the water dose? Because I want to drink multiple coffees per day so I use the Italian 7 grams of coffee rule for the espresso, therefore 15 grams of beans are for 2 people.

I have resulting 110 grams of concentrate which I will put into 2 cups (55 grams each) and dilute with another 55 grams of water/milk.

Wa la.

>>19398710
Yeah they are just coping. They held hostage by the taste of paper filter in their coffee. They do not kow true freedom.

Bros, i tried the Aerocano this afternoon, was not as pleasant as i envisaged. I may repeat the feat but frankly i was not impressed, almost letdown.

>>19398832
It do be like that sometimes, have my updoot to cheer you up

>>19398835
Chur bro!

>>19398832
Ditch the paper filter and buy a 150 micron stainless steel one. Do not fear the body of the coffee, the oils are your friends.

>>19398856
Worry not bro, i never filter gofffee with paper.
It's this memedrink btw, the foam had unpleasant taste. Then again i'm not the biggest fan of americanos.

>>19398446
>>19398541
Enjoy the goffee.

I just made moka (research to meme on the schizos) but this stuff is actually good. Different from espresso, good body and citrusy even

>>19398882
imagine being cucked so bad you have to do all that bullshit to make coffee, when you can just use pic.

Prismo or E&B 150 micron?

>keyword: full body

>>19399116
isn't prismo only useful for inverted?

>>19398234
yeah brazilians are less bitter and has minor floral/nutty complexities. prefer peruvians as far as it goes though.

>>19398272
please, your beans, they're so very sick. that roast is disgusting.

>>19398272
Beautiful beans anon. Cherish them.

>>19399146
Prismo has a valve that renders the inverted method useless

>>19396288
Reading through some of the stuff in the pastebin currently, but I just received a cute little Breville Bambino for father's day. I've been using a Normcore v2 grinder which CAN grind espresso but wasn't really designed for it. It's time to take the plunge and buy a ridiculously expensive grinder isn't it?

>>19398599
worst bait I've seen

Blade grinders are shit wrapped in shit dipped in shit deep fried shit

>>19399526
There's something about the Alessi DC06 that reminds me of Futurist design, it's so cool.

>>19399493
Thank you my friend.

I'm waiting for the customer support to answer me because of the warranty, however I'm buying that valve just in case.

>>19398982
Moka is great if you accept it as ancient espresso.

The problem is when you hit "just as good" as a 9 bar espresso machine.

>>19399004
Fuck off nigga

>>19399195
Yeah, still hunting some mid-low altitude Brazilian elephant beans that some Anon recommended for super nutty goffee

>>19399537
A kingrinder k4 or k6 will shit all over that normcore for ~the same price. Normcore v2 is about equivalent to the kin k1, but twice the price since it comes with all the extra bullshit. What's your budget and what do you consider ridiculously expensive?

I actually just roasted up some of that horrible hazelnutty maragogype and another variety from the same farm last week. You can see why they call it elephant. The ruby tastes like a Reese's cup.

>>19399652
yes, that's it.

Do you have the brand/farm they came from? The Reese cup goffee sounds good too.

>>19399579
I've been avoiding starting my espresso collection because I knew I'd drop a few hundred on the machine and a good grinder could be even more expensive. I remember seeing grinders that could do regular bean grind and espresso fineness for several hundred when I was looking for a little manual one and ended up with my Normcore. Obviously I'd like to spend less but if I gotta drop a few hundred I can. My skill level with this is definitely very beginner too, all I know is drip brew french press and pour over. Open to all kinds of suggestions.

Portuguese is weird. I think the translation is like Saint Hedwig's farm. No idea where you'd start looking for their crops, I got mine through a coop who got it from another roaster who didn't like it/bought too much so we didn't have to pay freight. 2.60/lb for the ruby, 4.14/lb for the elephant. Dirt cheap. Trabatti would sell it for 12eur/200g.

What's the best kind of coffee to order on a coffee date?

>>19399743
coffee negroni

>>19399743
> Poor = Americano
> Middle class = Cappuccino
> Upper class = Pour-over Single Origin

I'm so demoralized

My espresso pucks keep exploding. When I pull them out of the machine there's an imprint of the shower screen with a low dose, I feel the puck and its squishy and the top rocks like it's in two seperate layers, when I bang it out gently, half of it is still left behind and stuck to the basket.

I can grind coarser and stop it but the espresso shoots out really fast, like 15 seconds or less. Trying to get into normal espresso time and syrupy appearance explodes every time.

I use a gaggia classic. I let out all the steam before each shot and I've modded it to 6.5 bar OPV. The OPV valve looks like its squirting normally. I don't use a puck screen or paper filters. I've ordered one.

First I thought it was CO2 is my new beans but cheap amazon coffee is doing it too.

I use a mignon filtro with espresso burrs.

Before this I had a shot that choked to shit and didn't explode and it was the best shot I ever pulled. Now I can't even choke the machine out at any grind setting.

Buckman once said grinders with bimodal distribution and more fines like conical burrs have better puck integrity. But I want to solve this without buying a different grinder.

>>19398272
oils on coffee beans is a bad thing, it means they have been roasted too long. also those look like shit anyways, way too dark even for a dark roast

>>19399766
>autism = oh actually can i just scooch behind the counter and make it myself? no its ok i brought my own grinder and beans.

>>19399776
Why are you running at 6.5 bar? Thats advanced level. Get a classic 9 bar shot correct before getting fancy

Im the guy that was arguing with the anon that recommended you the puck screen btw, iirc I was saying thats not important until you can pull a decent shot without it. Have you been drinking poor puck screen shots all this time?

>>19399790
Kys rat bastard

>>19399846
ummm sorry sweetie

a stylish gay man on youtube told me that dark roast isn't good, so that beats everything.

>>19399835
>puck screen
bought one for cheap to fuck around and ended up not using it much. decided the marginal gains are not worth the new workflow & cleaning for me. if you still want to meme with them, i'd get 6 or 7, so as to get one clean per day, and do the bulk cleaning in one day.

What basket are you using? Your mignon espresso burrs are incredibly bimodal btw. You might think about picking up one of these as well, heard they're great for that style of espresso you're wanting to pull.

>>19399835
lower pressure is supposed to be less likely to channel and easier on the puck, at the expense of a thinner and less espresso-like shot

No I said I don't use a puck screen

>>19399875
Yeah if my grinder makes a lot of fines I don't know what to do now. Maybe the fines clog the exit and the back pressure explodes the puck? I don't know. I can see if a paper filter does anything and find out.

Also what's the theory with old style tapered baskets? I have one that comes with the gaggia that's not great hole quality. I only tried it once but it was overfilled, I'll probably do it again.

>>19399875

>>19399897
Just learn to pull a normal 9 bar shot before experimenting. Dont let the fact that I misread your post dissuade you from this important advice

>>19399863
That style of screen is a shitty thick mesh heatsink. You're a year behind. Grab a thin disc style one from aliexpress or sworks. Single layer of holes so they wipe/rinse clean and you can see any blockage. I think mhw3bomber has one now. Sworks seems overpriced at $15 for a two pack, but I paid flair $35 for that one and normcore like $20. The only reason I paid flair was they were the only other ones selling them at the time besides the bplus screen at $50.

>>19399930
not me on the vid btw, but yeah my puck is like the vid/your normcore/amazon link kek. i can't remove it easily after pulling the shot, and resorted to dig it in the knock box.

>>19399906
>>19399922
Pullmans are great. It sounds like your grinder is just fucked up or your adjustment screw isn't acting consistent. Maybe look at a full cleaning and try to align it a little better? What do you mean by exploding puck? You're not going to be able to diagnose a shot off whether or not it sticks to your basket.

>>19399925
I've pulled 9 bar before. I've also pulled good tasting 6.5 bar before my current problem. There's all kinds of espresso advice out there, a lot of its contradictory and it can't all be right, and I question the most knowledgeable people in the hobby. I didn't chide you earlier for misreading, that was other anon. But if you're going to insist on something I'd appreciate if you could explain WHY you think one choice is better than another. 9 bar is normal, but espresso is also normally bad tasting. I know my pucks are exploding, with the underlying force behind that being water pressure, so I don't intuitively see how more of it will help. There's a reason coarser grinds with less puck resistance don't explode. There's a reason filter coffee doesn't explode.

>>19399984
I've explained what I know in my first post. Even low doses that I've seen stay in place with water on top are imprinting on the top of the shower screen and floating on water after it's all done. Also the shots taste unbelievably terrible, much worse than my coarser grinds.

New single origin beans from producer Nelson Cordoba in Colombia.
Made some excellent fruity goffee today.

>>19399986
Grind size and pressure are just two parameters to adjust how quickly water flows through the puck, and since you want creamy body you shouldnt grind too coarse. Thats why I advised raising the pressure. But if you already pull decent shots at higher pressure and dont like them go crazy and experiment by all means. I do think its a bit condecending to say something tastes objectively bad just because you dont like it though

>>19399984
>What do you mean by exploding puck?

Thought I'd draw it. To the best I can tell this is what's going on on the left. When you press it, it's like it rocks around like a soft boat and is unusually squishy. The right is also soft but if you press a little harder you can feel foundation under it. The left also has a shower screen imprint where it would be hitting the top in the process of the explosion. The shape of crack underneath can be anything obviously, it's just an example. The puck may be in more than two pieces. The bottom sticks to the basket very well and doesn't come out with the top. The normal shots on the right come out in one piece.

I've had a puck screen before but stopped using it because I bent it and I suspect the mesh was too fine and not so transparent to water, especially when dirty. I wanted to remove it as a variable to channeling. But it was good at giving you a dry puck at the end to examine. That's why I ordered another one.

>>19400027
There could be a way you are right. I could suppose if you have a higher peak pressure, you don't have to grind as fine to get the same resistance, and maybe grinding too fine contributes to the explosions. It's definately cheaper to try different opv springs that a different grinder.

>>19399673
>>19400021
Beautiful beans anon. Cherish them.

>>19400057
Thats not what I said, its the other way around: with higher pressure you can grind finer and thus get a thicker shot. Not saying thats better or worse but its what you said earlier that you were hunting for

Anyone had volcania brand beans? Their site has a huge selection of exotic varieties. Looking forward to trying some.

>>19400034
Forgot the important part. The shots start out syrupy the your ristretto ratio pisses out in like 15 seconds. It doesn't firehouse but the flow rate suddenly cranks up really fast, like it suddenly started bypassing half my coffee

>>19400034
>>19400130
The only way I see the left happening is poor distribution/tamping. I'm wondering how much you'd benefit from a simple dimmer mod to give you some slower controlled preinfusion. Let the puck fully hydrate slowly before the 6.5bar ramp.

>>19400088
Yeah it's not weird to say more pressure can get through finer coffee, but more pressure also squeezes coffee harder so maybe you can grind coarser and come out with the same syrup.

I either have to make water move more gently, make my puck stronger, or make it easier for the water to move through the coffee. I still don't know why that miracle shot worked at all

>>19400146
So I wdt with those acupuncture needles, doing small circles in a big circle while decreasing my depth. I do a lot of tapping to completely settle the voids, then I use a self leveling normcore tamp. I've tried less wdt, I've tried less tapping and no tapping, wondering if I was clogging the holes with dry fines migration, it didn't help.

>>19403116
Yeah french press is forgiving, you're probably fine with it

I'm considering getting a delonghi ec885, anyone got any experience with them? I know it's not a great espresso machine, but from what I've seen it seems more or less servicable, especially if you spend a few extra bucks for a bottomless non-pressurized portafilter. This model also apparently has a much better steam wand than the old dedica

>>19403225
>>19403308
Sorry that actually looks like the old m68 pre vacuum mount. Here's a better picture that actually shows it.

>>19403328

>>19403116
How much did you pay? Probably return it if you can.

>>19403353

What's a good place to order from online? I want to try some new shit.

>>19403359
Kingrinder k1 has a much better burr for $55 if you're ordering from us amazon. The grinder you bought uses a real similar burr to the k0 which goes for $33.

>>19403350
I've got a k6 which is supposed to be espresso capable

>>19403359

I've RMA'd my moka pot.

It was bound to happen.

It happened.

At least I have the Aeropress now.

Speaking of which...how many fucking grams of water does the puck retain?

I made an Aeropresso with 70 grams of water and 15 grams of coffee and had a yield in the cup of 42 grams, wtf 28 grams of water lost?

>>19403382
Where im at the K1 is more expensive, i dotn think it makes thatbmuch of difference desu

>>19403387
Its one of the better grinders sub 200 for espresso. The problem is that delonghi has a 15 bar pump meant for running preground through a pressurized basket.

I have this weird thing of mine, I don't know if I should call it a fetish because it ain't nothing sexual to it, but still it turns me on somewhat.

So, I wear plastic slippers all year long but now that it's summer I don't wear it with socks, I have my feet naked like God intended.

With the heat and temperatures rising, given the non-breathable material, my feet inside the slippers sweat and become moist between the fingers.

When I remove the feet from the slippers, the sweaty footprint on the internal surface of the slippers release its characteristic acidic, almost vinegary, pungent smell in the air up to my nostrills.

When I make coffee in the morning I like to sit on the chair and cross my legs, feet outside the slippers, and as I sip the coffee the strong smell of feet sweat accompanies me during the coffee tasting, thus adding an extra aroma that I can feel with the nose.

It's weird because I'm both disgusted and aroused by this, but I can't help but sniffing it.

>>19403417
It's not broken, it's just the safety valve that shat the bed prematurely.
I just fucking had to leave the pot to the shop for the warranty, because apparently if I swap the valve in the comfort of my own household I may lose the 10 years warranty.

Well, I should be happy that the customer support works for a moka pot which is quite expensive. I love it.

>>19403427
So its not broken, the only safety feature preventing it from becoming a pressure bomb is, and it takes a trained technician to install because they've already read your emails crying for help? Sounds pretty rotto to me.

>>19403415
Ok so youre a pseud tryhard. Just enjoy life, stop trying to ruin things for others.
Its just coffee, good luck.

>>19403440
They don't make the valve, so it there's something broken it's the only piece they don't produce but it's made by an external company.

Whatever...however the valve leaks or doesn't fully close, so it's safe.

>>19403415
>>19403441

should i switch to tea?

>>19403719

Tea can be bitter as well.

While coffee and tea does have some degree of bitterness regardless, it can be greatly minimized by properly brewing it or preparing it. Or just finding some good cafes and letting the staff there do it for you when you want a good coffee.

>>19403719
The best teas are also roasted

>>19403719
You should have coffee with breakfast and then tea and yerba mate throughout the rest of the day

What's your order when you're going to a new coffee shop and instantly what the staff to know you "get it"? Planning on bringing my well-worn copy of Ulysses to a spot by me that I haven't already spilled my spaghetti in.

im pretty sure it wasnt out when i was buying my rok
also
its over double the price
also
hoffmann didnt cover it
also at the time of the original "manual grinder comparison chart" debate im 99.99% sure not a single person brought it up
also
im pretty sure you have only talked about it a couple times THIS YEAR
so no, not ALL THE TIME
cunt.
and even if hoffmann did cover it and it was out at the time i was looking for a grinder i still probably would not have bought it because again the price.
pietro = $690aud
rok = $250aud
the pietro is $440 more expensive.
and for someone buying their first grinder i wasn't going to go "all in" on something i didnt even know i was going to enjoy doing.
the rok came in at just the right price.
(also the rok has a much better base and much longer crank shaft)

oh and if they came out with a version of the pietro that was somehow mounted onto a large base with a rubberised coating on the bottom and a crank shaft AT LEAST twice the length for around the same price as the pietro is now i would consider getting it.

Why are coffees like Folgers and other super market beans so fucking bad? Like why are they just so shit in terms of flavor, etc? Is it just because they roast the fuck out of the beans until they are nearly flavorless and dark? I'm not saying you should get the same kind of high quality you get out of like a natural process single origin bean, but I feel like they could be 50x better than they are.

>>19405510
most people dont care
and those that do aren't the target audience
why bother spending even 1% more on making it taste better if you could spend 1% less have it taste worse, increase or keep the price the same and not lose any customers.

>Cheap and always available set to standard drips/urns but never good.

>>19405517
I have a present day Bialetti and it’s trash.

The materials are ok but the fit and finish is reminiscent of 90s Chinese products, with sharp edges, impurities and the molten aluminium is full of imperfections, plus on top of everything it’s made of aluminium and costs more than other non meme moka pots.

I would’ve bought the E&B if I could travel back in time, but then again

>lolaluminium

and since I don’t want Alzheimer’s then I’d still have switched to Chad Stainless Steel.

The Giannina is the best moka pot I’ve ever seen when it comes to fit and finish, it’s heavy as fuck and sturdy, you can see where your money is going (10 years warranty means that the pot will probably outlive you), the coffee it makes is pretty consistent and good because these last months I kept switching between specialty coffees and so, I’m happy with it.

Sadly something has gone wrong with it but it will be fixed.
I’m unlucky in life, I even had problems with Lexus cars which supposedly are bullet proof.

>>19405567
Made an aeropresso to make a cappuccino, so far it’s a 7,5/10 because I still have paper filters that neuter the coffee from the god given oils and grit.

Probably tomorrow I’ll finish my current arabica blend and start a Colombia specialty, caramel and tropical fruit notes, so I can try making non-espresso coffees with the Aeropress, I will try something longer.

>>19405576

nice cuppa anon, hope the paper merchant will stop robbing. you already decided prismo or E&B?

>>19405553

Says the guy with a broken Giannina that is being sent back.

>Also, degenerative brain disease happened before man ever mined bauxite for based aluminum. Don't believe Big Steel's lies.

>>19405586
Probably E&B because I don’t see an use for the valve as I brew with the inverted method. Also the E&B costs 9€ while the Prismo 34€.

>>19405614
Dude I have one of these and I sent back to Amazon the 1 cup one I bought months ago.

They’re trash and literally lose crumbs of aluminium in your coffee.

>>19405624
Nice goffee you got there anon. The cuppa must've been real nice.
Cute cup too. Did your cuppa have a strong bitter-sweetness to it? Almost like it didn't taste as rich in flavour, almost a bit dull?

>>19405627
Dude, I get it because I have a Romanian-made one and it shows.

It still has the best safety valve and you need to clean it out before using it Anon.

>>19405651
It’s real nice I was surprised myself. I felt like drinking a piece of heaven. I didn’t realize coffee can be that good, or that I can make such a cup. The bitter-sweetness tasted like the ending of NGE.

I found a roaster who had it @ 18€ with 70 grams of specialty coffee bundled, then there was the free shipping for a grand total of 25€ in the basket and I added another 210 grams of 3 coffees, 70 grams each.

based italian goffee explorer. godspeed moka-frà

Bros, I need some advice.
A couple of months ago, I forgot to empty my moka pot before going on holiday and it got moldy. I scrubbed the shit out of it using dish soap (later learned you're not supposed to do that), blasted water through it and then let it sit in hot water for hours before rinsing and later putting it in hot water again. Finally, I boiled some water in it a couple of times, but in the end I wasn't brave enough to use it.
Today I looked at it again and there's no glaring issues. The filter still has a very faint coffee smell, but no mold smells anywhere.
Is this thing a health hazard? What I'm mainly worried about is that since I couldn't directly scrub the inside of the funnel, it could still have some nasty crap inside.

>>19406666
Penicillin is not to be afraid of.

>>19406666
Yea it’s a health hazard to drink aluminum laced m*ka slop

>>19406666
Checked.

If you boiled the shit out of it then you’re fine, just be sure that the gasket is clean and if it has mold throw it away and put in a new one.

Also if you’re autistic you may already want to descale the pot so the acidic vinegar disinfect the pot too.

>3 tbsp of white vinegar in the boiler
>fill with hot tap water and cover the valve too
>mix and leave it resting for at least 2 hours
>discard the excess water so that the level goes under the valve
>assemble the moka with funnel etc but not coffee
>keep the lid closed (do not open it because it’s dangerous when there isn’t coffee to provide resistance) and brew a coffee like you would normally do, turn off the stove when all the vinegar solution has been expelled (judge by ear DO NOT OPEN the lid unless you want to be hit by boiling water)
>let the pot sit and when the solution has cooled down throw it in the sink and rinse the pot under the water
>brew one coffee (use coffee this time) and throw it away

Done

>>19406762
>acidic vinegar
use citric acid instead, won't have the shit vinegary taste.

>>19406762
Ps. I didn’t read that you scraped the moka pot.

Unless you used abrasive shit it should be fine if you boiled it and washed it multiple time, you need to make another layer of oxide form on the aluminium surface to protect the pot.

With that said, this is the reason why I went stainless steel. I don’t want to deal with this shit and the concerns.

Let me guess, you "need" more.
Build quality is good and grinding is effortless and quick. Coffee tastes very good.

>>19406652
Today I started the Caffelab Colombia San Alberto, I just made a quick Aeropresso after dinner just to test it.

The smell is amazing, just by opening the canister you can smell a fruit juice like aroma, very sweet and lowly acidic too.

In the cup the sweet fruit is still there and very cool, low acidity and mild body (but then again paper filters…), also a nice quick chokky/nutty finish.

Will driver the picture tomorrow when I make a cup of moka out of it.

>>19406800

nice, seems rather lovely. can you pinpoint a specific tropical fruit? also taking a break from mokaflor or already finisher? notwithstanding the paperfilters, enjoy the goffee.

>>19406877
Mango probably, and I can feel peach too even if it’s not a tropical fruit.

Tomorrow I’ll try again.

The Mokaflor Bernini has been finished
today, it was a decent blend but it lacked depth in the “dark” department, it was more on the aromatic side than on the chokky and caramel side. I’d rate it 7.5/10 if drank plain and 8/10 with milk because this way it tasted like caramel.

Something something tells me that if I want a true Italian blend I need to try something with some - may god forgive me for uttering this word - robusta, but then again my boy 100% Arabica from torrefazione Continental hasn’t any and tastes like true Italian goffee.

>>19406856
Gotta rationalize your homosexual desire to see biological male hands I guess.

>>19406893
next order try a smo bag of "Monsooned Malabar" arabica. some roasters use it in their blends to mimic robusta while keeping 100%arabica label.

>>19406964
My next order will probably be Caffelab again because they sent me a 15% discount code, I’ll write that name down.

Not because china good, but because yunnan is an amazing place and if the coffee from there is 1/3 as good as the tea from there is will be amazing.

yeh it is interesting how just a small amount of milk can really make coffee taste entirely different sometimes
and other times make it taste worse.

>>19407196
Way uglier, but unironically a way better design/workflow for actual cafe use.

>>19407267
surprised weber didnt make some like $3000 machine that you put your portafilter into and then automatically does the wdt
honestly the moonraker seems like a stepping stone in that direction.
like if you think about it in these higher end cafes they have a puck prep line all of which are automatic tool/technique machines.
i can see a sleek weber machine slotting into that line nicely
also, weber espresso machine when?
they have to run out of coffee prep/ grinders eventually right?
i guess they dont have a rdt product yet.
>$500 spray bottle

>>19407075
nah, its not quite there yet and weird to generalize from tea. their coffee industry needs time to develop, but it is infinitely better compared to the commodity garbage they churn out for domestic consumption. i bought some of those for cheeeap long time ago when i wanted to learn roasting, and it was thoroughly mediocre (barely cheaper than columbian supremo but quite a bit worse). historically their planted variety is not the best, and the special fermentation can turn out funky as hell. it can yield strong flavor but usually lack complexity, like a strong fruit or fermenty like a wine. I've tried quite a few and only end up liking one, normally i wouldn't care to keep trying, but the price is not cheap either.

>>19405785

FUCK THE MOKA POT

Fuck this disgraceful bitter piss maker.

There is not a single time it made remotely good coffee and I've tried everything.
-pre-boil
-low flame
-put in on a stove
-remove early and cool with cold water

Adjusting variables like flame power, brew time, coffee amount, doesn't even produce different results.
It's consistent 100% disgusting metallic rancid shit.
