/ck/ - Food & Cooking

Coffee is an addiction.

i nailed it.
on a med-dark (more medium than dark) roast:
-med-fine grind
-12g
-55ml of water at 99c
-press for ~3 seconds and let off
-1min preinfusion
-smooth, consistent press and only ramping up when needed

before there were varying levels of underextraction, but using the above has produced the best cup. i tried the same method at 14g but it always underextracted, which was weird. i may try coarser grind on the larger dose.

>not pressurizing vessels to see if you're in the Lord's grace.
I guess you don't have faith.

I'm just gonna ask it what makes coffee espresso vs just regular coffee like are theyre espresso beans

>>19586510

>>19586522
>what makes coffee espresso
Espresso is a shot of concentrated coffee, made by forcing very hot water at a high pressure through finely-ground coffee beans. The definition of espresso shows two of the major differences between espresso and coffee: the brewing process and the grind.

>>19586534
so any coffee beans can make coffee or espresso? theres no such thing as espresso beans?

>>19586554
>espresso beans
are typically dark roasted and highly soluble for easy brewing at home. People think crema tastes good so thats what they want to see, but its just oily coffee trapping co2. People who know what they're doing just brew "filter" roasts as espresso and get a very different experience. More flavor, less texture.
>so any coffee beans can make coffee or espresso?
Yes.

I have the weirdest issue with my Breville Dual Boiler that I'm utterly fucked about trying to figure out. I've had it for about a year, and using two different powered grinders and one hand grinder, using a variety of different beans, using the same puck prep, the first shot of the day runs about 2-3 seconds faster than any subsequent shot using the same beans/recipe. Doesn't matter if the first and second shots are minutes apart or I've tested/noted up to two hours apart, but that first shot will run a couple of seconds faster and then it's consistent as fuck for any that follow.

I can only think something somewhere moves or expands or changes in relation to heat, but trying to nut it out has baffled me and I can't find anything elsewhere. Anybody got any ideas?

>>19586667
Fuck and then I go and say faster when I mean slower. The first shot of the day is slower, it runs longer.

>>19586672
When you say first shot, are you flushing hot water through the group head before this?

>>19586682
Typically not - usually 20-30min of warmup but no flushing. That's a good variable to test

>>19586634
where did you get this footage of this thread

>>19586713
Bdbs are all plastic lines I'm pretty sure. Might be a good idea to run water through them to make sure everything is like, primed? There has to be a little expansion in there somewhere. One of these mod guides should give you a good look inside before you start ripping things apart.

>>19586789
Weird, that site doesn't let me link to the breville page. Maybe to prevent web scraping? Oh well just click around on there a little and you'll be able to find it. Good luck.

based retard.

>>19586554
italians are mentally disabled and dont know how to roast beans without burning them and they created espresso so when they started serving espresso they used burnt as fuck beans so people associate espresso and extremely dark beans
so when people want to make espresso they think they need burnt beans otherwise it won't taste like or simply be espresso

as you can see the italians have done irreparable damage to coffee.

As expected, the burundi is much much better after a month+ of rest. Very very sweet coffee. Almost Arnold Palmer-like in the finish. Would have been great over ice.

>The company's brands include Breville, Kambrook and Ronson (outside of North America). In the UK and Europe the company, firming as Sage Appliances, goes to market as the Sage brand (because the name Breville is taken by the unrelated Jarden company in the UK) and as the Breville brand in the rest of the world.

Do naturals make anyone else sick? I've been trying some naturals lately and they make my stomach turn. I don't know if I had a bad batch or something, because the flavor is there, but it sits in my stomach wrong and even made me throw up the other day. In the past I've never had a problem with them; but recently they just aren't good.

>>19587910

>>19587905
To be fair, Italy is very cheap to live. If you get a college education and work remote you can live like a king, especially if you're working for a German, British, or Scandinavian company.

>have espresso coffee blend
>haven't had coffee yet
>no condensed milk

How am I supposed to drink my coffee with your condensed milk?

I'm looking to heat small amounts of milk (~100ml) without a microwave, ideally I'd like something I can heat on a stove, put a handheld whisk in to foam the milk, then pour it straight into the mug. Can you heat milk frothing pitchers directly on a stove without burning the bottom? Or would I be better off heating milk in something like a Turkish coffee brewer?

>destroying your coffee

You mean improving. If you really want to be fancy you can look up the Spaniard recipe but mixing condensed milk with any type of espresso or Italian coffee maker is a timeless drink. Also, if you ever make hot tea you can put a little condensed milk in it too and it's quite good.

>Trying to do your job while some dumb cunt sticks a phone in your face

The more I post in /ctg/ the more I’m starting to believe we’re audiophile autists. Sure, even the dumbest blackest gorilla nigger this side of the Serengeti could tell the difference between an arabica and a robusta, but how many of you could identify in a blind taste test which coffee was made with a conical burr vs a flat burr or which coffee was made with a $200 grinder vs a $1,500 one?
I bet not as many as those who believe they could

>>19588074
I usually only drink bustelo so I am not really a connoisseur I'm just a guy that likes espresso

>>19587551
cozy snek
Unrelated, My roaster's cafe offers espresso with cold milk with ice cubes and on top foam. I like that coffee it's great on a hot summer day

>>19587968
Latinx really love their sweet condensed milk

>>19588074
Literally did a blind test this morning on a light roasted Burundi ground at 600RPM vs 1800RPM and could absofuckinglutely taste the difference though I expected the one I preferred to be the slower RPM and it turned out to be the 1800.

>>19588074
You are right, does it really matter if they taste different? No, its just a matter of preference. And most poeple only care about habing a good cup of coffee, they dont do side by side tasting.
Just enjoy coffee why complicate it, at some point it is just diminishing returns.
Coffe is not a hobby btw.

>>19588074
>was made with a $200 grinder vs a $1,500 one?
just you wait until i get a craig lyn bench mounted vertically cranked Mazzer 83mm conical burr manual grinder and compare it to my rok bench mounted vertically cranked 48 mm conical chinesium burr manual grinder.
then i will be able to tell you what the difference is when drinking burundi natural process medium roast in my E&B Lab 6 cup moka with the E&B Lab competition filter.
when will this head to head bench mounted vertically cranked conical burr manual grinder battle take place?! well probably some time in the next 5 or so years...
( :3 had a great moka today bros!)

>>19588095
I guess I could count as Latinx because I'm Romanian and we technically speak a romance language but my family always used to use condensed milk in everything.

>>19588074
You can probably make out differences in a side-by-side test. Although many people certainly spend more than they need to get something enjoyable.

>>19588241
If you're Romanian, you could count as a Slav. Slavs like their sweetened condensed milk as much as Latinx perxons do

>>19585905

Drinking more than 2 double-shots a day makes me feel like shit, but I enjoy coffee. Is there such a thing as good decaf espresso.

>>19586554

Another shop nearby starting serving food and finally had to confront the issue when people who had ordered food couldn't find anywhere to sit. They have these little signs saying something like "between 9am-2:30pm limit your time at the tables unless you're actually drinking and eating shit from here."

>>19587910
Yea they taste like shit and are literally left out to rot in the sun. You can roast them to 500f to get rid of the rancid flavors and germs but the toxins are still there.

>>19588542
Just say you don't know what you're talking about etc etc

>>19588538
The dirtier the better the flavor. It's like a seasoned cast iron skillet. It only needs to be cleaned if you're using different beans with different flavors.

>>19588417

>>19588598
I've seen businesses run around here similarly without much issue, doesn't rain much. Also, saw one shop try to address the issue with bench sitting with built-in small table spaces. Kind of like those old school desks, but the whole thing was this monolithic structure.

You can kill the bacteria but you're still eating their shit. Washed or nothing.

>>19588623
I've seen unbranded stuff even outside of ali, being sold in brick and mortar stores. I think it matter more online because there's more options and not having a brand makes most people dismiss it.

Not a shill. I'm a tea enthusiast. I haven't touched coffee in a long time but someone gave me a bag of beans so I pulled my k-plus out, aerojoke, v60 and I bought a moka pot for memes and I was floored how easy the moka pot is and how good it was.
BTW I am using paper filters in my moka pot.

>>19586584
espresso is just a preperation method afterall. and even award winning roasters will dumb down the *labelling* on their offerings so people don't get confused. lighter roast espresso is delightful, so it's often necessary to buy "filter" roasts to enjoy those lighter roast beans.

make sure you get the 6 cup and not to listen to the retards in this thread.
just made a moka with natural process Ethiopia Yirgacheffe from sidama bombe.
perfect black.
but only if made correctly.
i got a new gasket recently and im enjoying troubleshooting it and breaking it in.
i will probably take it apart and do a full clean and then re check everything again.

>>19590351
>not sure how it'll go on an open flame
you mean... like a gas stove? how else do you make coffee?

>>19590355
how's the 6 cup better than the 3 cup?

>>19590273
Light roasts degas for much longer. If your beans are stale and rancid two weeks off roast, you're drinking dogshit.

>>19590365
more goffee :)
but the real answer is i only have experience with the 6 cup model and the only other person here that i know of that has a 3 cup is not using an E&B Lab moka and is also completely insane.
you can buy whatever size you like but i simply dont have the knowledge or the experience in troubleshooting a 3 cup, but it is something i would be interested in investing in in the future.
going from a 6 to a 3 cup E&B Lab moka (not induction i hope) probably isnt as bad as going from a 6 cup E&B Lab moka to a 3 cup fully stainless steel abomination with a totally different(and worse) filter and gasket system.
trying to help that other schizo was horrific.

i am the moka schizo you worthless retard.
that italian downy came in and begged for help and spent dozens of hours over multiple weeks helping him in every single thread even though he consistently fought back against any of the advice i gave him, constantly thought his stainless steel moka was superior and was unable to make bad coffee while still asking for help.
was there anyone else here who exclusively uses moka? anyone else who makes moka every single day?
anyone else who had the actual real life experience?
no.
so take that "larper" shit and fuck off.

Relax roktist. I'm talking about trabazzitard larping as a guru now. Take a breath.

>>19590457
>trabazzitard larping as a guru now.
is he? i havent seen it.
is he even in this thread right now?
and sorry i just take false accusations related to things im very passionate about very seriously.
saying that im a larper? thats just too far.
i havent had breakfast yet, and i have been dealing with dogshit email crap all day, i shouldn't have lashed out like that.
thanks for the picture, it makes me smile when i read "moka endgame" :3 <3

>>19590489
Last thread. I figured you'd see it that night and reee out on him :(
>19579244

>>19590503
oh i got fed up when he took a break and came back and was just as annoying so i went back and filtered out ever one of his comments to hopefully nuke his presence from my life.
ok yeh i had to open the last thread in a incognito tab so the filter wouldn't apply, i can see it now.
the filter didnt catch this one and i do remember seeing it but i migrated to that thread pretty late (it was already at like 200 posts) and when i saw that stupid moka i was too tired to fight him and just hid the post and moved on reading the rest of the comments.
that was a good thread actually. sad i got there so late.
sometimes you just dont have the energy to engage with those kinds of people.
sorry about that.

>>19590536
oh and i saw some new trabatti pics but i didnt know if they were that anon or just copy cats.

seems like it works to me.
i mean you essentially have zero temp control other than physically lifting it off the fire but it works, it makes coffee.

I want to make an autism chemistry coffee maker like in breaking bad, but actually functional. I don’t drink goffee, what are the common methods of extracting bean juice and where can I read about the chemical compounds you want and don’t want in your drink?
I’ve seen a few people make coffee with various lab equipment but I want to see how good I can make it. Maybe milk brewing, under a vacuum as to not curdle the milk and/or oxidize the coffee?

I want to see how deep the rabbit hole goes

JFC I miss my espresso, fucking insomnia

Manually grinding and making espresso in a manual lever machine just doesn't bring me joy anymore.
I kneel to the automatic machine chads. I just want an easy hassle free brew

>>19590881
Nothing wrong with pivoting to filter for a while anon, variety is good.

I want to get into V60s/pour overs but something about making it just feels kinda gay. Not sure why

>>19591157
Then do it and deal with it... or don't?

>>19591157
tell me anon is THIS gay?
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YbXbcQEFPOU

I have a dumb question.
When brewing espresso, the machine I'm using will drip an extra 5-6g over about 10s after I turn off the brew switch. Maybe a little less, due to some scale lag.
Should I be counting this in my 1:2 weight ratio and my 25-35s timing? It seems like a lot of extra that's not brewed under full pressure.

>>19591212
I pull my cup away after hitting stop.

>>19591212
But the better question would be, taste it with and without, and tell us which tastes better?

Chance this photo is disoriented.

Cup is 3.5 ounces so kinda tall. This is a 40ml double of dark matter coffee - Tierra. Very acidic.

>>19591227
>Chance this photo is disoriented.

>>19591235
This guy is on it appreciate it. I flipped the pic on my phone to counteract the disorientation that posting would do to it but it still somehow came out wrong lol.

>>19590988
Are you a mind reader? I've been wanting to do just that. The problem is finding a gooseneck kettle I like..

>>19591246
I do the same - I'm headlong into espresso at the moment and haven't drunk filter in a while but at some point I'll feel like lingering over a cup of coffee for 15-20 minutes at a time and that'll send me on a filter bend for a couple months til I swing back again

I never liked coffee unless there's a type of sweet coffee lol

I had this devilish idea
What if you replaced hot water with hot milk in your french press can and then added the coffee as usual? Would it taste good?

>>19591405
ANON WATCH OUT THE CUP IS ABOUT TO FALL!

>>19591449
no
but you should try it and let us know :)
i think the main problem would be using milk hot enough without the milk tasting bad or splitting.
and using milk/water at a lower temp would mean much less extraction and therefore much worse taste.
the closest idea i could think of for this kind of thing would be putting very high quality instant coffee into hot milk(around 60c is plenty for the milk to be very hot but not so hot that it splits or tastes burnt)

>>19591439
>cup of milk

Because it’s my breakfast, I’m having it with pancakes

>>19591449
I used to dp this with tea, i think the milk inhibits extraction, has a clogging effect on the porosity. Better to mix the milk afterwards

At first I thought the Robot was cute but the more I look at it the more it looks like a chicken carcass...

>>19591552
...yes

>>19591449

what flavor did you use.

>>19591618
>love freezing them in the summer, cutting off the top and scraping it with a spoon, prime summer treat
That's fucking gold.

Vanilla, wasn't going to start to controversially

>>19591637
gotta shake it up a bit before freezing tho,
yeh vanilla is a good choice.
chocolate might be ok.

>>19591370
>not being the bean yourself

>>19591552
always thought it was gross how it shits out the coffee

Has anyone ever made a 3 ply moka pot? Like how stainless steel pans are, you have stainless steel on the outer and inner layer and then there's a layer of aluminum in the middle for heat conductivity.

i was not expecting the difference in strength to be significant dropping from 55ml to 42ml, but it was. turned out to be a great americano. maybe i'll make a cortado later :)

>>19591449
goffeeception. you take cold brew and use it for french press. you then use the french pressed coffee for a v60. use it to fill a moka pot. use the moka for an espresso.
you now have the crowned Kang of Goffees

I like to whip up some milk after getting my coffee done and then sprinkling some cardamom on top of it. Is there anything else i can do to spice it up yet more?

>>19591736
use the espresso for turkish

>>19591741

>>19591745

>>19591741
have you tried putting diluted ginger syrup in a spray bottle and spray that on top of the milk before drinking?

>>19591754

i only drink direct trade goffee. lets help them help us drink goffee.

>>19592009
yes
it also means it is of higher quality and im getting more quality for the price

>>19591993
Don't see a roast date, unless it's on the back, and while the other anon joked fair trade is genuinely not a sign of quality in coffee. Most roasters source their stuff directly and are transparent about it even without any certifications, they often don't want to spend the money on it or even if they can just don't because they find it meaningless.

>>19591993
Unspecified Png, Peru and Honduras blend. Do better anon.

>>19591948
i drank a liter of iced coffee this morning and don't regret it at all

>>19592066
>Don't see a roast date
Is the absence of it a bad thing or is it about how freshly it was roasted? Thats just an image of the brand from the internet not a real life package

>>19592108
It does to me

>>19592178
If it tastes good to you, it's good enough for me and i validate your goffee choice. Enjoy a good cuppa anon.

>>19592178
If a bag doesn't have a roast date it's got a good chance of being months old. Grocery stores and mass manufacturers in general are more concerned with use by dates, and coffee doesn't really go bad. They'll usually have a use by date that's like a year after roasting, but coffee goes staler much quicker than that. It's just a bad sign if they don't let you know when it was roasted.

>>19592201
If it tastes good who gives a fuck

>>19592227
It could taste better

>>19592272
Its not about coffee it's about posting on your ig about cool place

>>19592285
Napoli was always a small city, having so many fucking dunces around doesn't make it better especially considering the only people benefitting from tourism money are the greedy old fucks running the tourist traps.

Coffee related, the cost of a cup of espresso went from 0,50€ to almost 2 because of this.

>>19591741
cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, black pepper and ginger

I've heard adding a pinch of salt to the ground beans before brewing can make coffee taste better. I'm not sure how true that is.

>>19592936
Give me a cost breakdown on those 0,50€ espressos. How much of that is going towards the beans?

>>19592952
Do you assume everybody you interact with to have intimate knowledge on coffee economics in Italy?

>>19592962
I think you should have a general idea of how materials, labor and overhead factor into any good or service.

>>19592969
>Do you assume everybody you interact with to be italian?

>>19592982
>"ITALIANS could be here," he thought

>>19592982
Just take a wild guess. There are no wrong answers. 0,50€ a cup. Rent, labor, utilities, insurance, machine upkeep, cleaning supplies etc etc. What's left for coffee at that price point? 0,15€? Less?

>>19592994
>Give me a cost breakdown
>Just take a wild guess

>>19593014
Alright let's try to dumb it down. Is there more or less than 0,50€ of roasted coffee in a 0,50€ cup?

>>19592994
the .50 euro espresso is to get you in the door, where you will buy an overpriced sandwich or something

>>19593031
The fast Italian lifestyle leaves no time for sandwichery.

>>19593052
