how long should brewing a single cup of coffee on a chemex take?

>>19954520
like three minutes.

>>19954520
As long as necessary, as long as it tastes good. Rao recommends 5min drawdowns, gagne recs 10 minute aeropress steeps. Chemex filters are slow.

Hey guys I'm new to the coffee world. How much coffee grounds do I put for 64 oz of water?

>>19954582

If I have a machine that uses 58mm portafiltrer but not e61 grouphead, do I have to glmake sure to get a specific type of 58mm portafilter when buying aftermarket?

>>19955270
Yeah theres differences in the lug positions/thickness/angles that can fuck you. Make sure you know what you need.

>>19955474
Water can be a massive rabbit hole but in simple terms if it tastes good it'll brew good - distilled water isn't ideal because a lot of dissolved minerals are factors that contribute to the flavour of coffee and in some cases the extraction of it, plus using it in machines with a water level sensor can be fucky with distilled. A lot of people though, start with distilled water and then add things to it to make very specific water recipes. You probably don't need to go anywhere near that deep yet, if your tap water tastes good and is pleasant to drink it'll be ok though it'll be worthwhile keeping an eye on the potential for limescale if you live somewhere with "hard" water. If it doesn't taste good, any bottled spring water will be fine.

I'm a retard who neglects the machine by not doing maintenance and now the solenoid valve is clogged by scale. The coffee withdrawal is real.

My family is Bosnian so I'm familiar with making turkish coffee as a possible backup but I don't really like it. Having to avoid the sediment at the bottom of the cup when drinking is a pain. Maybe I should just get a moka pot until this mess is sorted out- at least our grinder is working fine.

>>19954364
I don't get this meme, coffee is stuffed with fiber, it makes my shits extremely regular

>>19954461
none of these because robusta is disgusting

Most straightforward, no extra effort and equipment, most consistent, cheapest way to brew coffee:
>blitz beans to Turkish fine or finer in a blade grinder
>toss grinds into pot/jug/carafe/whatever
>bring water to a boil (stovetop pot, electric kettle, doesn't matter how)
>pour boiling hot water into vessel with ground coffee
>stir vigorously for a minute or two
>let sit 10 minutes (the extremely fine particles should saturate with water and fall to the bottom)
>slowly pour into serving cup/mug
>enjoy

Adjust bitter/acidic balance by altering:
>coffee:water ratio (by weight, everyone should have a kitchen scale)
>amount of initial agitation
>steep time
Keep initial temperature as close to boiling, and keep grind size as fine as you can get it to maintain high consistency with as little specialized equipment as possible.

This method produces very little sediment in the cup. Consistently pleasant results so long as you adjust ratio and steep time to taste. If you don't want to shell out cash money for grinders/brewers, or if you find yourself without your regular brewing setup, try this.

Black Ivory is worse and you are a scatfag

>>19955474
if you can get distilled there's almost no added cost in putting a bit of weighed out epsom salt and baking soda in that shit and making your own water to your taste

>>19955927
people that drink ivory are the same people that drink robusta, idk why you think this is a good response. arabica/caturra/geisha is good, eugenioides is good, robusta is bad and boring, anything that has to go through animal intestines is bad and boring

Threadly reminder that italian espresso is trash. Preground robusta blends pulled through dirty portafilters topped with milk steamed a half hour ago.

>>19955976
british coffee youtubers just parrot nordic style roasters like coffee collective and tim wendelboe (who are completely right about everything)

>>19954360
I have a Moka Pot but I'm tired of using it due to the time consuming nature and only really getting 1 cup at a time. I also just came into a possession of a coffee grinder with like 18 different grinds.

What's the best kind of coffee making device I can get to make use of freshly ground coffee? I'm thinking of getting a French Press, but something about the name bothers me. Should I just do the pour over thing? I have a cheap kettle (not a gooseneck one that lets you control temp)

>>19955989
Aren't most of those Nordic roasters heavily biased towards Latin beans by default? Their well is already poisoned

>>19955986
L'uomo bianco teme Gusto Forte

>>19955999
if so I'm not aware of it, for what it's worth I'm drinking an ethiopean from la cabra right now. I think american specialty coffee, which is also inspired by nordic style, favor them for pragmatic reasons.

>>19956005
I know my black insomnia robusta is slow-drum-roasted and as a result it circumvents the typical "Robusta taste", so maybe it's the roasting process itself that's wrong, and they're roasting their beans at too high a heat too quickly

>>19956008
The black rifle tards think the same thing.

Any cascara fans here? I've never been to a cafe or roaster that offered it; is the stuff on Amazon any good?
>t. /tea/ crossposter

Purchased a nice vessel from mk-ceramics in Denmark. Really beautiful clay pieces. I've been window shopping the last month or two about a new cup for espresso and decided on them. They also have to be the most expensive..shipping was 44$

Aeropress users, are you not worried about microplastics? Doesn't boiling water literally come into contact with the plastic? Really want to get one but im very worried about this.

New to goffee, I really want to try Sumatra purely because I have some ancestry from there, so I get that I have to actually get the beans and grind them, is there any specific brand or source of Sumatra beans that are ideal? I would assume that using Starbucks beans like picrel is the meme choice but idk anything about goffee.

French press would be your best option for time/effort efficiency. Toss grounds in, boiling water in, stir for a minute, leave it alone for ten, plunge to surface of liquid, slowly pour into cup. You can do the same thing with a jar or a small saucepan if you don't want to get a French press for whatever reason.

>>19956325
Cocoa has caffeine. Yes you can use coffee equipment to brew cocoa, but it's unnecessary. Cocoa grounds are desirable in the finished drink and there's no real downside to over-extraction.

>>19956999
>Really want to get one but im very worried about this.
Same here; if they ever actually release an all-glass variant I'll jump on it, but until then I'm steering clear.

Is the Fellow Stagg stovetop version sufficient for coldbrew? It seems like the thermometer on the top would be enough to get the right temperature without paying over twice as much for an electric version. Want to get the Stagg because of how it pours.

>>19957266
I don't know why I wrote coldbrew lol (I was looking into some stuff about tea). I meant POUROVER.

>>19957266
>>19957272
The main draw of an electric kettle is it heating up faster. Buy nice or buy twice imo

>>19957288
>Buy nice or buy twice imo
That's probably the best way of looking at it. Of course if the electric components break you might be buying twice anyway.

Best coffee in the americas

I bought myself a french press and a milk foamer the other day instead of waiting for Christmas, just so I could actually enjoy coffee in these cold days instead of using Christmas as an excuse.
Thank you /ck/ for all the posted advice and instructions these past few weeks. I had never made a cup of coffee before and I am finally learning how to drink it properly with quality beans.

Based goffee enjoyer

>>19957644
I literally own this. Yes, I bought it just because I like the colors. No, I don’t measure temperatures, I just pour and see what happens.

Even though I love my espresso machine, in the morning I still crawl back to my v60. Just something about it. Some people are just filter niggas.

>>19958150
I have a Flair and 95% of my brews are still V60
I like the volume of brew and having something I can sip on over time which espresso doesn't really do

>>19958249

>>19958258
Higher altitude beans grow denser. Denser beans take longer to grow, but have more complex flavors. If you want peanuts/chocolate in a cup, look for low altitude brazilians. 1800m red honey costa rican will be delicious(if they don't botch the roasting).

>>19958284
ok thanks final question, should i get the whole beans? i know that you need specific coffee grinders but would my spice/coffee grinder do a good job? i have this one https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B00004SPEU/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1

>>19958314
Eh you're fucked either way. Either they grind it and you'll spoil quicker(way more surface area to oxidize) or you grind it and end up with a poor experience for longer. I'd just have them grind it so you're not left with stale spice odors. If you want to risk it check this out.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3y7d-5KWHCU

>>19958314
Buying single origin and asking them to grind it is probably a waste of quality as they will be stale by the time you get them in the mail. But, if you have a shit Amazon grinder it may be your best alternative

Bought these oily boys from costco to season my DF64 SSPs. Tried funneling them (I know, retarded) and the motor stalled about 100 grams in. I spent 2 hours cleaning the grease off the burrs and chute with isopropyl wipes.

>"specialty coffee"

>>19958314
How will you be brewing your coffee? French press? Pourover? Moka? Something else?

>>19958482
yeah french press
>>19958392
this seems a little insane to me. i feel like i might be okay with just grinding it once with my grinder

>>19958567
You're going to end up with chunks and dust, but its your coffee. Do whatever makes you happy. Hopefully you haven't blitzed up any peppercorns.

>>19957986
Don't fall for the autism bro, just drink instant.

>>19958452
You are like little baby. Watch this. Jk sucks bro. Now you see how quickly dark roast oils can taint a pristine set of burrs. Dark roast, not even once.

What is the best timeframe for coffee? I'd like to order 1lb, but they're charging $12 CAD shipping, if I order 2lbs they'll only charge $5 CAD shipping. I don't drink coffee everyday. At most I'll consume 120g a week. So it could take me 8 – 12 weeks to go through 2lbs. Will it still be good at 12 weeks from roast date or will it be noticeably stale and oxidized?

>>19958567
>french press
Clean out your spice grinder to get rid of as much spice taste/aroma. Then do this >>19955915. The method above produces a much nicer, more consistent final beverage than the Hoffmann blade grinder shenanigans. If you don't already have a kitchen scale, buy one. They're cheap and useful for many different things in the kitchen. If you can spare the money I recomend a nice hand-grinder (somebody post the chart). There are some good discounts to be had online during this season.

>>19958832
>Will it still be good at 12 weeks from roast date
not at all

>>19958567
>>19958869
Oh yeah, for the ratios I recommend 1:12 – 1:15 coffee:water by weight. Experiment and find what you like best.

I don't have a vacuum sealer so I think freezing will do more harm than good in this case. Would storing them in the fridge (1 – 3°C) significantly prolong their "shelf life"?

>>19958900
You don't need a sealer for shortish term. Just tape over the valve and toss it in the freezer.

>>19958832
"Too stale" is a subjective threshold but imo anything past 3 weeks is pushing it. I've never had coffee 4 weeks or longer since roast and enjoyed it.
However, you can put it in your freezer and significantly slow down aging. The caveat is you should try to minimize oxygen and especially moisture, which entails TIGHT SEAL and as little empty space in your container of choice as possible. It also means you shouldn't be freezing coffee several times because each time air moisture will condense on the beans from the cold and cause them to stale.If you want to throw in the coffee in the bags they ship it from, assuming it keeps out moisture it should probably be fine. Just pull them out whenever you're gonna drink the coffee and don't put them back in the freezer after opening,

(More autistic people will store it in centrifuge tubes or even vacuum seal it in single-use doses, or put it in something like a mason jar with oxygen absorbers. Probably not necessary for you)

I boiled water to heat some potatoes from yesterday, used the water for my instant coffee. no bueno.

So it’s been like 2 since I’m on Instagram and now my feed is filled with coffee related posts.

I fucking hate normies and I hate Instagram, but this isn’t exactly news, however since I stopped using social media since mid 2010s I’m still amazed that this entire platform is basically CONSOOMERISM: the social media.

Every single motherfucking post features exactly the same exact 3-4
products every time, every post is a collaboration between the same brands and people seem to fight between them to make the most NPC video by carefully framing all the brands of their equipment.

I FUCKING HATE KRUVE GLASSES SO FUCKING MUCH, THEY NEED TO KYS SO BADLY

$40 for 2 glasses made in China is ridiculous.

On my profile I have 37 posts with multiple pictures and the post that received the most likes and attention is the one featuring all the coffee bags I bought. Literally only the bags, no coffee and no grains in sight, just the bags, it was a post to say “look I bought these beans, in my next posts you can expect to see related content to this purchase”.

I received attention from the roaster, from blue check mark people and a lot of random users…and it’s not even coffee lol.

I’m not mad actually, but this made me realise that a big chunk of the coffee community revolves around dick measuring contests on the internet and a lot of badgewhoring.

May uncle Ted Kaczynski have mercy of our souls.

should i do it?
should i pop my sumatra cherry?

It’s happening.

This bad boy has Torrefazione Giamaica Caffè coffee in it.
Can’t wait to taste it.

My burrs chirp almost Everytime I fire up my df64. I turn it on prior to pouring beans in. It chirps for a little less than a second then stops and might chirp when grinding. Is this startup chirping bad or something to worry about?

>>19961971
My DF64V chirps and it's usually a fragment of coffee in the burrs - if you turn it on, hear it chirp, dial down finer you'll probably hear the chirp go away, then dial back to where you want to be. It's a different sound to the actual burrs-touching chirp, if that's your concern - at least it is in my case and most V users who encounter it.

Do you ever stop while you're making coffee to consider what the fuck you're actually doing? A farmer in Kenya has planted a field halfway up a hill, with a tropical plant, so that the berries from it can be harvested, then left to rot in the sun until the fruit has largely gone, before picking the seeds out from the remaining pulp, and shipping it to a business in - in my case, Perth - who will bake the dried out seeds until a very specific temperature is reached, before parcellng them up and sending them by air to me on the other side of the country so that I get them within 24-48 hours of them being baked, in order that I can then smash them up into tiny tiny pieces before using them to basically make a stock.

It's kinda fucking wild.

>>19962169
All the time. I first had the realization a couple years back when I was snagging 90+ ethiopian greens for $5-6/lb shipped. The economic gymnastics to make that happen really shatter the illusion. I can't imagine what I would have to pay to ship 1lb of anything from the us to africa or what the ecological hit would be. Coffee should be at least 4-5x more expensive.

>>19954360
would my beans stay fresh if i buy them in-store and get them ground there, and then transfer the beans into a vacuum sealed jar? presumably opening and closing it every day

Light roast coffee is a meme. All the "experts" on roasted bean juice can lick my balls. Yeah, I've had some good light roasts but medium or dark is better. Light roast and Extra dark roasts are the two extremes and are the worst.

and the other anon is right, light roasts have more caffeine.

>>19962169
Perthanon, where did you get your coffee making gear?

>>19963086
Anon, I got it at my local grocery store and I don't save grocery receipts because I'm not a 75 year old boomer.

Hello anons, I hope you can advise me, I bought coarse ground coffee The seller told me that it was a kind of small coffee bean and the branch of coffee is shaped like a snail and that gives a more intense flavor to the coffee BUT the problem is that in my opinion it comes over toasted and in my French press I get burn notes. I used a part for coldbrew (24hrs, 10% coffe
- 100% water ) The result was a coffee with less burnt flavor but without body and flat.
My question is, what method would you use with a French press to get good coffee?

>>19963111
Use Hoffman's method

>Boil water
>Let cool just a little bit
>Pour your freshly ground goffee on a paper towel to catch micro grounds and pour into press
>pour water over
>sit for 5 minutes
>stir
>sit for 3-5 more
>pour slow and don't pour the very last bit

enjoy

You sure it's a 100%robusta? From my limited search it seems to be a robusta arabica blend.

Surpires new roaster, surpirse new bins.

>A 100% Arabica blend, welcome to exotic lands from the small producers of 4 excellent Latin American cooperatives. A real firework in the mouth, combining sparkling acidity, roundness and lightness, all topped with a tasty crema worthy of the name (don’t forget to wipe your moustache). You won’t get tired of it!

>Origins: Guatemala, Honduras, Peru, Colombia
> Notes: caramel, milk chocolate, apricots, roasted hazelnuts

>For each package you buy, a tree is planted by our partner Eden Reforestation Projects

>Partner cooperatives :
>Peru: Cooperativa Cenfrocafe in the northern Cajamarca region
>Guatemala: Cooperativa Agricola Integral La Esperancita in the San Marcos region
>ANEI is an organization of agro-ecological producers in northern Colombia (Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta and Serrania de Perija)
>Honduras: Cooperativa de Productores de Café La Encarnaciòn Limitada (COPROCAEL) was created in 2000 in the north of the country in the department of Ocotepeque

First shot, not dialed yet. Came out as a lungo (1:3,3 18g:60g), will need smaller granulates. Suuuper tasty. The milkchoco is clearly notable and so is the caramel. The roasted hazelnuts are present in the aftertaste but the apricots is yet to be found by me. Super pleasant rich mouthfeel.
I have to say great american blend, would buy again.

>>19963389
Kek what a moron. $20/lb and since they don't mention anything about where they're sourcing coffee, I'm guessing its the cheapest brazilian and indian shit. Built with tegridy.
>Carefully selected and roasted blend of the highest quality Arabica and Robusta beans ensure bold flavor without tasting burnt or bitter.

Look, this morning another 2 have been delivered (1 coffee and white chocolate + 1 “sacher” cocoa dough, chocolate chips and lightly candied fresh apricot pieces).

These 3 high tier panettoni have to last for the whole month (I’ll be gifted other ones for sure even though of lesser quality), mainly because they’re expensive (34 to 42€ each) but also because they’re so good and full of calories.

A cappuccino with a slice of panettone is a godly breakfast.

What's your preferred method of storing coffee? I just store mine in an airtight container and throw it in the fridge.

>>19963576

How many have you ordered anon?!

>>19963614
Just 3, the ones you see in the pictures above.
I’ll probably receive, between now and the end of the year, another 2 or 4 from friends and family, but if it was up to me I’d stick with only my high quality panettoni and be done for the whole season.
Thank god these things have a shelf life between 45 and 60 days (the artisanal ones), so you can eat them slowly.

>>19958452
Faggot dark roaster

>>19963670
what?

>>19963709
It appears the anon to whom you are replying is insinuating that roasters who prefer to roast coffee to dark levels are also the same kind of people who enjoy penetrative sex with men. It's unlikely that he is actually making commentary on their sexual preference but probably using the term as a pejorative in order to convey his distaste for darkly roasted coffee, and contextually, probably homosexual sex.

>>19963570

Current sip:
Guji Bule Hora from Carasso in a befitting demitasse. Naturally super sweet cuppa, with strong pronounced chocco intermingled with some florals and stone fruits aromas. Abyssinians make some wonderful choccy goffee.

Current nib:
Madagascar 100% from supermarket. No sugar needed as the goffee is naturally sweet. I believe it to be a blend between criollo, forastero and trinitario cocoa. Have to say they hit the mark with this one.

I won't drop him at the slightest mistake, the gorilla is finished. You'll always have a few smart guys around here thinking it's impossible. Nothing's impossible with willpower, folks, and 2) you're not going to do anything with your cowardly body.

I've never tried panettone -I'm not into candied fruit- is a coffeettone something you can buy or something you make yourself?

Mokabros, what do we think of this?

>>19967490
here >>19966539

>>19967503
Panettone exist in many different flavours, even without candied fruit (the classic traditional Panettone has candied citrus and orange peels + sultanas).

The Panettone I posted is made with the standard classic dough, which is the base for 100% of all the Panettoni, which is then infused with moka extracted coffee and ground coffee with the addition of dark chocolate chips.

I bought from a bakery, however coffee and chocolate is a rather popular version of Panettone in Italy and you can find many artisans doing it.

>>19967124
It ate a very small piece because I opened it to offer a slice to a friend who came to my house so I didn't have enough time to analyse it, however it is currently sitting in my warm oven for 1 hour so it becomes warm and nice just in time to eat a slice with my after dinner goffee.

Panettone is peak winter comfy.

>>19954360
Knob on the handle of my k6 fell off. It's still usable, but you need to be constantly vigilant to make sure it doesn't fall off again. Anyone have any experience fixing something like this?

>>19967563
epoxy it, maybe

>>19967563
Lacquer up the metal bit with a couple layers of clear nail polish to give it a tighter fit. Wait for it to dry before putting the knob back on. If it's not tight enough add another layer. If it's too tight use nail polish remover and start over.

>>19967592
Don't do this unless your okay with the knob never rotating again.

Eaten.

So, it’s a nice Panettone, it’s balanced and rather well executed, the sweetness is balanced and it’s moist, pleasant to chew.

There’s a lot of chocolate (nice chocolate) but I can’t taste the butter and the coffee, although you can feel it under your teeth when you chew, is very subtle.

When I made coffee flavoured brioches I learned that the coffee loses a lot of flavour when you cook them, probably because most of it evaporates, but that happens with instant coffee too, so it’s possible that in the end baking with coffee infused dough isn’t the right choice if you want to taste a strong coffee flavour, probably it would be best to make a sort of cream to fill the finished panettone or to top it off with, and this is the way some bakeries from south Italy (Sal De Riso) do.

Overall I’m happy because it’s an artisanal panettone from a nice bakery, however it’s not one of the masters of panettone which make magic Panettone.

This is what Renato Bosco Panettone are for, believe me they’re like cotton candy and are worth the 40€ price tag.

I have a date, what sort of coffee should I order?

>>19967715
This is Renato Bosco’s “Recioc” panettone with infused coffee and white chocolate.

Notice the structure, it’s rich and fluffy, elegant and soft like you wouldn’t believe.

While the Pinel above is a nice panettone, this one is a product from a Master who makes one of the best Panettone in Italy, he’s famous for his pizza and has a pizza restaurant which makes a lot of different doughs and specialties, it’s famous and I want to go there.

Even this one has a subtle coffee flavour but the balance of the other flavours is excellent, it truly is a pleasant experience having a warm slice of this in a cold day.

>>19967733

Noone cares you Italian faggot.

At my job, for the wage workers like myself, they have an old beat-up percolator they use to make Folger's. Being in a lower management position, though, I can go into the office area and access their fancy-schmancy Keurig machine that they keep secluded from the plebeians. I have to say it only tastes slightly better than the percolator, and I think that's simply because of using a coffee other than Folger's.

>>19967733
which one's the best goffeetonne?

>>19968280
It will keep flavors from evaporating shortly after extraction, leading to a more complex flavor. I do it from time to time, when I'm not making milk drinks. Kind of a fiddly thing to set up, but it's not like it's expensive or anything.
I just got a stainless steel espresso cup, so I'm going to try chilling that before pulling shots in the morning. Should be fun, and much easier than trying to balance a fat skimmer and whiskey stone over my cup. If it's easy enough, I'll probably do it most of the time just for the heck of it, even though it won't be as noticeable in a latte.
