Goffee

>>19512944
had a good goff today
opened a kenyan this morning
tasted like shepherds pie and maple syrup
:3

>>19512980
I just roasted up some kenyan peaberry yesterday. Already smelling like a raspberry bomb. I'm all out of the ethiopian samples of roguewave so onto the washed guat in the morning.

i stopped drinking coffee a month ago and now i feel tired all the time and i no longer shit regularly and when i do shit it is often clay colored. is this normal?

>>19513046
>do drug that makes you stay awake longer and more alert and makes you shit more
>stop doing drug
>no longer awake and alert as much and dont shit as often
gee i wonder...

>>19513054
i didnt ask what the cause is i asked if it was normal for it to be continuing for over a month dumbass

>>19513064
actually thats not what you asked.
maybe you should say what you mean

>>19513046
That's normal, but for your digestive problem better to eat vegetables and fruit anon.

Just brew some nice japanese iced coffee with Liberica from Prau mountain.
Life is good anon.

what gives?

>>19513046
Clay stool isn’t normal, medlet here but it can indicate a gallbladder issue (coffee potentially helps stimulate it so it may have been covering), you should ask a doctor about it.

new coff who dis?

>>19513761
acid extraction reduced with the lower volume of water

Every time I make coffee theres less coffee beans for next time :(

>>19512937
that unironically looks very crammable

Wtf literally how.

>>19513947
no it isn't
what he wanted to ask was "is it normal to still be suffering from coffee withdrawals after a month?"
but he didnt say that.
he said some other vague bullshit which deserves a vague bullshit reply.
if you want a clear answer, ask a clear question.

>>19514543
Anon, what did you score on the raads-r?

Now I put 3 filters between the top and bottom of the moka pot and my coffee came out hella burnt. The moka pot is the worst coffee gadget on earth, I've watched 30 minutes of tutorials and the coffee is still garbage

>>19514559
i dont know what that is
anyway
you are coping
you know im right and you are coping.

>>19514599
>The moka pot is the worst coffee gadget on earth
bait + skill issue.
are you grinding your own beans with a quality grinder?
are you using an E&B Lab competition filter?
are you using high quality fresh roasted beans?
also you havent even said what your process is.
this is 100% a skill issue on your part, want to know why? well because i just made a great moka, very tasty.
you are calling a hammer shit because you keep missing the nail.

>>19514623
>t. perfect score

>>19514495
Your gf uses a needle to poke holes in your filters

>>19514559

Just used the coarsest grind on my grinder and grains of coffee still came into my coffee, there's a little silt at the bottom still although not much.
>>19514634
>are you grinding your own beans with a quality grinder?
Yes. A capresso infinity.
>are you using an E&B Lab competition filter?
I'm using the one that came with the pot https://www.amazon.com/Zulay-Stovetop-Espresso-Flavored-Delicious/dp/B07YBFWY8Y
>are you using high quality fresh roasted beans?
Yes
>you are calling a hammer shit because you keep missing the nail.
I have followed the instructions I was given to the exact word and letter multiple times. The very first thing I brewed from this was delicious and the rest have been ass, there were no different variables between brews 1 and 2 and the coffee came out tasting different.

>>19514693
>capresso infinity
lel. Post beens.

>>19514693
shitty moka pot and bad filter
>Just used the coarsest grind on my grinder and grains of coffee still came into my coffee
you are getting fines that pass through.
fines that are much much finer than the holes in your filter.
>Yes
post them
>I have followed the instructions I was given to the exact word and letter multiple times.
what instructions?

>>19514711
so im getting bad coffee cuz its a bat moka pot? gotcha, thats all I need to know, thanks anon.

>>19514731
well i dont know what fucking instructions you are following either.

>>19514740
nearly boiling water in bottom. Coffee goes in the tube filter thingy. Screw on lid. Place on stove at half way to high.

>>19514731
You're getting silt in your cup because you have a shitty grinder thats producing a fuckton of fines on the coarsest setting.

>>19514756
could that be a byproduct of not cleaning it? I never clean my grinder since all the grains are supposed to come out of the bottom anyways

>>19514745
>nearly boiling
i dont know why you would do that.
boiling water straight from the kettle is what i do.
>half way to high.
just do high and then when coffee starts coming out and fills the bottom so you cant see the metal at the bottom anymore turn to low until it gets half way to the bottom of the spout, then turn the heat off until the coffee reaches the bottom of the spout and then take off the stove and run the base under cold water(or have some kind of tub or bowl filled with cold water you can put the base into)
if your moka is sputtering or spurting or hissing you have fucked up.
if you moka stalls you have fucked up
ideal brew time around 3ish minutes, ideal yield for a 6 cup moka is around 150-160 ml in the cup.
yes you have a cheap shitty moka
yes you have a shit filter
yes sadly you probably have a shit grinder that is producing a ton of fines fucking everything up.
but you get points for not using a blade "grinder"

>>19514766
thats not what makes fines
fines come from having a shit burr set.
its a physical limitation of the burrs.

>>19514766
No its a byproduct of the (likely poorly aligned) $40 handgrinder tier burrs in it spinning at 500+rpm and blitzing the fuck out of your beans. Capresso infinity is the grinder your buy when you don't want someone else in your house fucking with your nice grinder because they found starbucks decaf beans on sale.

what tamp/distributor/wdt should i buy for my joepresso? tamp/dist must be 51mm

>>19514813

>>19514779
Fines come from civil infractions

>>19514813
The absolute cheapest one you can fine. Don't buy a $45 normcore for a $30 joepresso.

is niche zero still up there? the eureka single dose has a shit knob so im counting that one out

>>19515205
its fallen off a bit.
the market is just so much larger today for what the niche got popular for.

>>19515205
It has a better workflow than grinders that cost 5x as much, its just cucked a bit by the burr set. Its a blendy, high rpm conical meant for med-dark italian espresso. All depends on the coffees you're drinking regularly if its the right choice.

>>19515205
it's the only conical grinder in its class. retired boomers who need a second grinder for chocolate bombs/the wife's latte still like em.

>>19513025
Coffeefags who like acidic “fruity” notes are usually the pretentious hipster homos
Coffee enjoyers who embrace the strong, well roasted, tastefully bitter flavors are the based ones

>>19515376
>strong, well roasted, tastefully bitter flavors
Just say you like shitty coffee and move on.

>>19515376
>i LIKE eating shit, the flavor is just so STRONG
fuck off retard.

I made my non-coffee-drinking girlfriend drink an Ethiopian blueberry bomb and she said that it was the most acidic thing she had ever put in her body

>>19515376

>>19515396
>i forced my gf to drink my shit coffee and my fucked palate convinced me it tastes like "blueberries"
also blueberries are not supposed to be sour you brain dead retard.

>fruits aren't acidic

>>19515463
Not all fruits are acidic, bananas for example aren't. But blueberries are.
Also as a bit of trivia, lemons are acidic until digested, at which point they become alkaline.

>>19513862
these fuckers advertised a light roast but they're med-dark

>>19515469
>The pH of bananas generally falls between 4.5 and 5.2, making them low in acid.
>A pH of less than 7 indicates that the subject is acidic. The closer to 0, the more acidic.

>>19515469
>But blueberries are.
not always true.
from my experience if blueberries are sour or acidic they are bad or not ripe enough yet.

>>19515499
They're always acidic, they might not taste sour. Coffee is the same. Well it's not always acidic, but it can be pleasantly acidic or it can be sour, if that makes sense.

>>19515487
Looked into it, apparently it can vary by type
>The ones bought from the store often have a pH of 4.50 – 5.20, which is slightly acidic. The pH of burro bananas, on the other hand, is 7.6, making them alkaline
Still my bad

>>19515503
>They're always acidic
i dont care about "well actually scientifically they are always acidic" i care about taste.
and a good blueberry will never TASTE sour.
at least in my personal experience in my part of the world
there are a fuck ton of different blueberries.

>>19515510
It won't taste sour, but it will taste acidic. Acidity isn't just what we'd call sourness.

>>19515513
i mistyped i meant acidic.

Only tastelets with blown out palates from oily roasts confuse a pleasant sparkling acidity with sourness.

It wasn't even an actual Ethiopian blueberry bomb I just said that because it's funny

>>19515385
Keep eating your toy batteries, fucking toddler.

>>19515533

>>19515486
well that is light compared to the coffee most people drink.

>>19515527
What’s the difference between acidity and sourness? Actually, sourness sounds more pleasant than “ACIDIC”

>>19515542
None of those posts after the initial one were made by me kek

>>19515553
yes we know.

>>19515542

This complete fool fell for the oldest trick in the book, the fucking Ethiopian blueberry bomb

>>19515564

>>19515560

>>19515548
If your cup is "sour", you're probably underextracting the fuck out of it and could stand to dial in further. The fruit acids that create that "sour" taste extract first, then your sugars and oils, balancing out the cup. If you start with a medium-dark roast low(er) elevation brazilian/sumatran/nicaraguan, they're just lower in acid by nature, giving you a "smoother, nuttier" taste. The darker the roast, the less acidic + they're easier to extract. High altitude coffees take longer to grow, are denser, and have more time to develop (harder to extract) complex flavors.

I have a super-automatic espresso machine (DeLonghi Magnifica XS). It’s pretty mid but it was free
I want to buy an expensive espresso setup but I know that spending 1-2k on coffee would be a bad use of money

>>19515770
Yeah a 2k espresso setup would also be “mid”

>>19515770
$300-$600 of hand grinder and manual espresso/bambino will shit all over that setup.
>>19515810
Just say you don't know what you're talking about and move on.

and ground using a rok vertically cranked bench mounted conical burr manual grinder?

What’s a good drip machine? I will probably never get one but I’m just curious because I like how they looks and the whole pot thing you pour out of. Feels very American. Shitty but iconic.

>>19517444
Moccamaster, Breville Precision Brewer or the Ratio 6 or 8 are probably the top end of what you'd want. There's also the new Balmuda but it looks pretty memey.

Maybe not the best but at least it was on topic before

I almost never drink espresso. Is it normal for it to have some coffee silt at the bottom, or is that a failure of the cafe?

>>19519868
Its normal. Decent promotes it as a "feature" of their baskets.
>If you get the hole size just right, you get a gorgeous, full mouthfeel. You'll also see a kind of chocolate-powder top to your shot, from the right amount of smaller particles, called "fines", making their way into your drink.

I have a french press and a hand grinder, but I'm tired of the bits of silt or whathaveyou. Should I just deal with it, or buy some big machine that does it all for me?

>>19520047
do you do the hoffmann method?

>>19520150
I don't know what that is, so maybe

>>19520155

>>19520047
you could also buy a v60 plastic cup and paper filters, that's pretty similar to french press in terms of taste and no silt in ur cup

>>19520047
don't pour everything and just dump the last little bit

>>19520189
>>19520235
>>19520222
Yeah, I've seen that video before and I do it like that. Maybe I'm grinding it too fine or pouring badly or something

Just had a great cup of some colombian. Nice comforting chocolatey flavor. Shame I made about 200 ml in my v60 and I put half of it in 100 ml of milk because i expected it to have gone stale. I would have gladly drank it all black.

Anyone else sometimes brew enough coffee for a single black coffee and then enough to prepare a milk coffee "dessert"?

>>19520444
I'm too old and fat to enjoy nice milk coffee desserts

any worthwhile super-automatic machines? i have a delongui ec685 that has served me well so far, but i am ready to upgrade, i am incapable of dedicating 5 minutes making coffee after waking up, i am not a mornings person

i don't even really like coffee that much anymore. It's mainly an inconvenience that i have to drink it. Maybe I should change my method

What stovetop kettle do you use for your coffee

>>19522691
I've got an electric hario kettle, but not one of the more expensive temp control ones. I'm guessing it's fairly similar to the stovetop model and just has a heating element strapped to the bottom, and if that is the case I wouldn't really recommend it. It's not terrible or anything, it just feels cheaper than it should for the price.

In improv class we were doing this game where we give each other gifts. He gave me a magic wand. I assumed he meant like a prop or something you'd use in a Halloween costume, so I went with that and he didn't say anything to the contrary. A week later I realized he probably meant the sex toy, and he didn't correct me when it went over my head.

Anyway, I'm open to electric. Mostly I want the gooseneck and the whistling.

>>19522812
left this out: he was a gay guy, and often used STDs and sex toys in scenes

>>19522812
Gooseneck kettles don't whistle, you get one or the other

changed grind settings 2 clicks coarser, Kenyan is now drinkable
still dont like the taste but its now at least drinkable.

>>19522838
I saw a Coffee Gator Gooseneck Kettle on Amazon that is listed as whistling, is that a lie?

>>19522795

It's just the start, dude.

can anyone recommend an electric gooseneck kettle without any plastic or silicone gaskets or elements inside it? temp control doesn't matter

1st shot came out with a yield of 40 ml at around 33s, pretty perfect
2nd shot came out with a yield of 80 ml at 30s. actually watery.
fairly new to coffee. i assume this inconsistency is the result of my cheapo old espresso machine? if i finally pull the trigger and get the bambino would this sort of stuff stop happening to me

>>19522996
Post it. Goosenecks usually have the start of the spout at the bottom, so it's submerged in water and steam can't pass through it to make it whistle. Although it is possible they installed a whistle hole somewhere else.

>>19524409
you're positive it's not the old machine that's the problem? i figured it didn't always build up the same heat/pressure between brewings.

>>19524413
You haven't even told us what the machine is. If its a fucking $85 delonghi, yeah thats probably the issue.

>>19524577
saeco poemia, about 12 years old probably. idk how much it cost, i got it for free.

>>19524584
That's a machine for preground anon. Are you running coffee ground through a q2 in a pressurized basket?

>>19524584
time for a new machine anon.

>>19524615
yessir. i've never heard such machines were thing. you mean they were made specifically for ground coffee you get at the supermarket?
i haven't been getting bad results with it, beyond them being inconsistent. my best shots were no worse than what i get when i order an espresso at the roaster i get my specialty coffee from.
was i fucking up the machine or the coffee by doing what i've been doing?
>>19524642
the bambino good for my purposes? like i said i'm fairly new to coffee so i'm not ready to pay 2000 dorrar for machine and grinder

>>19524645
>you mean they were made specifically for ground coffee you get at the supermarket?
yes
>the bambino good for my purposes?
i have no idea.
others might know more than me.
but dont worry about spending 2k, your grinder is "fine" but you could probably drop idk $500 and be in a nice position.

Grinder is your weakest piece, but you’re already better than most people yeah. Assuming you mean sgp, that thing is inconsistent on coarser grind I hear.

Hi anons.
I would like to know if you can make coffee with the 4:6 method without having the v60 equipment? Simply using a normal metal mesh strainer with a normal paper filter.

>>19525815
It insists upon itself.

>>19525564
lust provoking image to get replies and hopefully an answer

>>19525873
probably not. i've heard metal strainers affect the flavor of goffee. but even if not, it's a totally different geometry so the flow is bound to be different. maybe a plastic funnel and filter would work?
idk why you'd want to bother though, the v60 cup and filter are pretty cheap, aren't they? the expensive part is the jug which is hot garbage so you don't need it. worst nozzle i've ever seen in a jug. nowadays i just use my french press jug with my v60 cup

I think I forgot how to Flair correctly. Coffee keeps coming out way too intense. I still drink it, but it makes me go ech and ack every time...

>>19527500
Sipping on some flaired burundi right now. Whats your recipe/profile?

>>19527574
Is burundi good for you? I'm drinking medium roasted kenyan. I grind 19grams for asspresso, and i do that thing where you wait 10-15 seconds on low pressure for it to preinfuse and then I press it all out steadily cranking to 6-9 bar
I think I want to get into v60 or hario switch, but I like that espresso is actually kinda low caffeine compared to those methods. I'm just tired of coffee that overwhelms

>>19527612
Which flair do you have? 19g is high. I'd drop that dose and try some lower pressure turbos/exdos shots.

>>19527661
flair pro 2. I'll see about using less grams. I thought 19 was minimum I need for it to resist and go up in pressure.
I'll try it later

>>19528877
You don’t need copy paste, several brands have their own designs. I used a Chinese designed one for years, it worked just fine. I switched to fellows for meme iconic look and for variable temp but then realized my old kettle poured better and is idiot-proof. I don’t really enjoy fellows, in fact it pours kinda shit and I accidentally burned myself when not playing attention. If I was a poorfag, I would’ve went for timemore maybe since it’s a fraction of the cost, and I bought scales from them before. While I went overboard with memes and even bought a wooden handle, I don’t regret changing though, waiting for a dummy kettle to drop in temp with a thermometer is fucking hell

>>19527661
Gonna try 12 with that method now. but my scale isn't ideal so I don't weigh out a desired weight. Gonna go by how much I feel I sqoze out of it

>>19529099
Hm. Can't really ramp up to 5bar for 6 seconds without most of the water going through the puck by that point. It also sprays everywhere.
The taste, fine actually, less ACK inducing today. A bit smooth maybe a little too bitter. Maybe a fluke dunno not feeling like making another goff

Here's the detailed breakdown of what that extractamundo dos is trying to do. Tweak it, play around with it a little. That guy is using 64mm ssp mp so you might have to dose a few grams higher. Its basically just a quick slam to hydrate the puck, a short bloom while you release the lever, then pulling to maintain whatever even flow the puck wants to output. They're already onto extres but I'm not really sure of the exact differences.

>>19532415
could be too fine
you can grind finer
you can't make it coarser

I went and got barista training MANY years ago and what I learned was that there is a correct way to make coffee.

Basically you run enough hot water through the ground beans to extract the coffee part of the coffee with as little not coffee as possible. The more not coffee you add to it the more bitter it becomes

>>19532475

>>19532504
It probably tastes like shit. I guess they culd use cbd isolate and then it wouldn't taste like much but if they use a "full spectrum" or "broad spectrum" hemp extract is going to have that pot brownies kinda weed flavor.

>>19532475
Great use of your time and money. You should start up a tiktok.

First time making espresso with specialty beans, fuck it's good. Even managed to guess a pretty decent grind size on my first go. It's got a bit of a bitter finish so I drank it with some steamed milk (really just warmed milk, I can't into steaming), but that still resulted in a better cup than I think anything I've ever drank from a cafe.

'Sup fags. I think I've been making my coffee with too much coffee?

I bought a 3-cup cafetiere (or a French Press, to the savages) and followed the ratio with about three tablespoons of ground coffee to about 300ml of water. I was doing this for months. Then I actually read the instructions on the back of the bag of coffee grounds and it recommended one tablespoon per cup?

Taking this at face value, does this mean that my average cup of coffee basically contained three shots of espresso?

Secondarily, I recently knocked my cafetiere off the counter and shattered it to pieces, was thinking of replacing it with a moka pot. But a 1-cup pot seems to small, so it circles back to whether a 3-cup pot is a suitable level of coffee for one person to consume in a single sitting.

Out of the box, I think you'll be happier with a breville bambino(nonplus) for $350. Temp surfing sucks. If you're planning on doing gagguino mods its a different story. You're locked into 54mm shit, but its not as big of a deal as it was a few years ago. The accessory market has opened up way more for other basket sizes. The sentiment I've seen around gcps is that people who have gaggias love them, people who have upgraded from gaggias recognize just how much bullshit they were dealing with.

>>19534812
The instructions on the bag of coffee mean 1 cup as in the cup marks on the glass caraffee on a coffee maker. Not 1 cup as in one mug of coffee.
Any way if anything you weren't using enough you definitely were not using to much

>>19534812
You should be using ~15 grams of coffee in a 300ml french press

>>19534869
1:20 ratio is pretty weak for french press. Most recipes rec 1:10-14.

>>19532439
I don't think so, if they're really fine I could try making turkish coffee but most likely they'd be fine enough for a moka and that's my daily drive anyway.

>>19534879
Different anon chiming in: I also do about a 1:20 ratio in a french press and it turns out pretty good.
Paradoxically, in my experience, using a 1:15 ratio or lower results in poorer extraction even with an extended brew time, which I have to assume has to do with the osmotic pressure dropping as the dissolved solids increases.
On the other hand, 1:20 results in a fast and good extraction (~2-3 minutes in my experience).
Pour-over does better with a 1:15 ratio since you're replenishing the filter with fresh water (thus keeping the osmotic pressure high).

>>19534812
A 3-cup moka pot is perfect for one person.
I have a 6-cup moka pot and drinking it all by myself is just too much caffeine for me, so if I don't have anyone to share it with I typically turn half of it into a milk drink and stick it in the fridge for the next morning.
I'll warn you though: Moka pots are fickle. One day I'll get a god-teir gush of goodness, and the next I wind up with what tastes like straight lemon juice.
Because of that, the Moka pot has mostly been relegated to my weekends, where I have the time to slow down and pay attention to the fine details.
My daily driver is a French press.

A chilled extraction would be like pulling shots with ice water(which I've also done). I've got some Nyeri Kiaguthu peaberry resting now and I'll probably get some of this roasted up in the morning. Or actually I've really been wanting to try the sandoval.

Anon from several months ago who was encouraged by this thread to stop drinking instant coffee. I've been grinding my own beans from home right as I drink them for a while now. My favorite bag of beans is the big old bag of french roast from costco.

Thanks for introducing me to coffee.

any of you mongs have opinions on Tanzanian peaberry? there's a local roaster that's middle quality but they roast fresh. should I cop?

>>19538501
Peaberry isn't anything special, its just all the tiny beans that fell through the last grade of screens when it was being sorted. They're harder to roast because they take on heat so quickly. Try it and report back.

Coffee is a surrogate hobby

>>19539088
“A surrogate activity is an activity that is directed toward an artificial goal that the individual pursues for the sake of the “fulfillment” that he gets from pursuing the goal, not because he needs to attain the goal itself. For instance, there is no practical motive for building enormous muscles, hitting a little ball into a hole or acquiring a complete series of postage stamps. Yet many people in our society devote themselves with passion to bodybuilding, golf or stamp-collecting. Some people are more “other-directed” than others, and therefore will more readily attach importance to a surrogate activity simply because the people around them treat it as important or because society tells them it is important. That is why some people get very serious about essentially trivial activities such as sports, or bridge, or chess, or arcane scholarly pursuits, whereas others who are more clear-sighted never see these things as anything but the surrogate activities that they are, and consequently never attach enough importance to them to satisfy their need for the power process in that way.”
