Can we get a kitchen tour? Mirin your stove

I haven't tried sugar in coffee in yeaaaars. The idea of it in black coffee sounds disgusting but with milk is sounding very tempting right now. Any suggestions? I think I'll make a cortado or something and mix in some brown sugar. I may or may not enjoy this.

>Can we get a kitchen tour? Mirin your stove

>>20080378
You could always try doing something like a cafe cubano, just sprinkle a bit of brown sugar on top of your coffee puck and pull the shot, then make a cortado from that.

Personally I've found I really don't care for sweetened coffee since I started learning how to actually make it well a few years back, but let us know if you try it and how it turns out.

>>20080389
this is the correct choice, made one for the first time since getting my espresso machine last night and it was pretty choice. Gonna try it with homemade ice cream at some point since I'm sure that'll be even better.

>>20080392

I just bought the same thing and I gotta be honest I like it but not enough to take multiple pics to post

Do these beans look over roasted? They're supposed to be a medium roast but look quite dark and they're oily, which I have only seen on darker roasts. It also tastes like an ash tray. Did the roaster fuck up here? Or am I just simply too unsophisticated?

If by drinking lighter roaster you end up like him, a literal graying faggot who looks like a baby and has zero testosterone, I'll keep drinking my dark roasts like adult people do.

>>20080463
Okay thanks, so definitely a dark roast. But is it burnt? Or am I just not appreciative of the roast? To me it tastes like an ash tray at every coarseness. Im new to goffee so I don't have the experience to know but I'm leaning heavily towards this roast being burnt

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cx2BmU8Z_NY

>>20080486
I mean, they can burn it more, but its a pretty dark roast. It being "wood fired" is also responsible. Most roasters will be using gas or electric so they're not tainting beans with smoke.
>>20080482
> it tastes like an ash tray
Enjoy. I've got some fine robusta to sell you.

>>20080501
Maybe buy dark roasts from roasters who know how to make them, otherwise enjoy spending thousand of dollars in expensive equipment to be delude yourself into thinking that you're not drinking tea.
At least filter fags do that with equipment that costs $100 and they're happy.

>>20080501
So would you say its a drinkable bean then?

>>20080486
Also I don't want to harp on you since you already realize you don't like the beans/roast level, but I'd clean my grinder before running any other beans though it to avoid any lingering "flavor". I wouldn't run them through my grinder in the first place. If you wanted to try something on the other end of the spectrum I just got some coffees in from roguewave that are very tasty. The only one they still have in stock is the panama boquete.

holy shit i kneel

>>20080520
Thats not what I drink, no. It may be what you drink. Its certainly what the guy seething drinks. They're just toasted fruit seeds. Either you want to taste the flavor of the fruit, or you want to taste the roast.
>>20080594
They also cut their (commie ration) coffee with chickpea/garbanzo beans. The sugar is necessary.

>>20080596
Needs to stop adding so much sugar to her coffee.

Has anyone tried a sub through Atlas? I want to try some new shit but I'm too lazy to look up a bunch of different roasters and choose stuff from all of them, so the idea of something where I get a bag from a different region every couple weeks to try out is appealing to me, but I don't know if they're worth a fuck as roasters or if they source their shit well. All the info I can find on them is very clickbaity listicle shit saying the same generic shit where all they do is describe the site's sales pitch without ever discussing the quality of what you actually get.

With this post I’ll not only prove that the anon saying that my moka is overpriced is wrong, but at the same time I’ll show you that actually it’s the Bialetti moka the overpriced product.

Using the weight on my scale, we can calculate the price per gram by using the prices of both moka pots as reference.

The Bialetti (3 cup) on the Italian Amazon in this moment costs 24,90€ but the official price on the official Bialetti store is 30,90€. We’re using the lowest price now.

The Giannina (3/1 cup) on the Italian Amazon cost 79,90€ but there isn’t an official store with an official price, I paid mine from an authorised retailer 110€. We’re using the Amazon price.

The aluminium + plastic Bialetti moka weights 410 grams and has a price per gram of 0,06€.

The alla stainless steel Giannina weights 728 grams and has a price per gram of 0,10€.

It has to be noted that aluminium is cheaper than stainless steel (source check any raw materials stock market page), it also has to be noted that Bialetti make all their products industrially and in several parts of Europe whereas Giannini is a completely artisanal low number production and it can’t even flex the brand because everyone in the world knows that moka pot = Bialetti, also Bialetti has decreased the build quality of their products a lot in the last 10 years so their moka pots have rough edges and casting imperfection while the Giannina is as perfect as it can be for an artisanal product. These pros/cons cannot be calculated with this method.

Actual mental illness

>>20080871
yeh but the valve on the bialetti wasnt broken when you bought it
and the other ones valve was broken when you bought it so taking into account it was broken i would say thats alot of money to spend on a broken product
you should do a cost analysis for the E&B Lab moka pot next

>>20080901
The valve on my moka pot was never broken, you can also buy a new one for 3€ or less, the moka has always been fine and I’ve been using it since I bought it with much satisfaction as you know (according to you I blogpost here every day).

The E&B moka I can’t do an analysis because I don’t own one but even factoring the cost of the competition filter (between 10 to 20€) it’s basically a very standard Bialetti clone but of nice quality, and there are a lot of Bialetti clones of nice quality that cost less than a Bialetti moka, so the E&B moka at 61€ is overpriced as fuck materials wise. You can make every aluminium moka pot an E&B by buying the competition filter stand alone.

thats not true it also has a bigger basket

>>20080955
I just bought a WDT tool to see if that fixes your concerns, but unless you make coffee to watch the extraction only I’ll take the moka that makes the coffee which tastes better and even in this regard stainless steel is better because it doesn’t absorb anything at all unlike aluminium which has to be “cleaned” from the pervious coffee.

I was trolling the obsessed anon, I lied to prove that he would’ve endlessly bitching about at anything I would have posted then and now, and I was right.

sounds like you should buy an E&B Lab 6 cup moka pot.

Medium roast and up beans for milk drinks right?
Dunno if it's user error, but I generally don't like espresso from light roast beans but do like those same beans as a pour-over

>>20080996
Seeds soaked and fermented in fruit acids.
>>20081020
No its not.

>>20081017
Maybe you’re right anon, I’ll leave my PayPal so you can help me with your generosity. <3

>>20081029
yes
light roasts are very very rarely good in milk drinks
its possible but idk like 1 in every 20 are good

>>20081030
I'm just saying if you want to taste the flavor of the fruit, as you wrote, then you'll have much more success with coffee cherry tea than coffee seeds soaked and fermented in fruit acids. Cascara tea is another name for coffee cherry tea in case you're searching for some.

I 100% believe the valve was never broken, but the retard absolutely rma'd it at the "authorized retailer" that fucked him on the price. I'm guessing they told him it just incoherently sputtered by design and he's been running with it since.
>>20081090
Top lad.

>>20081101
Try again anon, the retailer wouldn’t have sent the moka to the maker if it wasn’t faulty, because in that case the maker wouldn’t have honoured the warranty and paid the shipping costs to receive and send the moka back to me.
The authorized seller is not a repair shop.

Also, I still have 9 years of warranty. It feels good. Add this info to the PROS list above.

Fuck, this is hilarious.
People fighting over an anon who has a moka pot that had a broken safety valve.
Are you sure it's the same guy as the one in the thread?
I mean rationally seen, there are like 420 million people living in the EU and thousands of them have bought the same model as the broken valve anon did.

>>20081487
sure but this anon literally cant stop posting about his life and posting his kitchen and pretty much everything he does.
he also types the same way consistently
we also went through 3 seasons of "thats not me thats someone impersonating me"

>>20081487
Without a doubt. He's been crying that its broken for nearly a year while begging anyone who will listen for help on here and reddit. Also likes to spam an old italian man he wants to suck hot crema from.

>>20081505
Hm.... not here that often myself, but theoretically it's possible someone other is faking him in order to create irritation.

This aside, i am really considering buying a Giannina moka pot myself.
But wiifey wants me to buy an E&B. What do?

The Giannina is interesting because of the flippable lower filter, making it versatile.
And you are because of the flippable lower filter, able to clean the funnel.
The stainless steel Bialettis as far as i can tell, you can't separate the lower filter from the funnel, which i have made possible in the aluminium moka pot from Bialetti.

I like to clean the funnel so old goo doesn't collect there.
first time i did this (after two month of use (one brew every day)) i was shocked how much stuff was layered in the funnel you normally can't reach to for cleaning.

>>20081546
fuck those old threads were great
>i REFUSE to believe that my pot is defective

>>20081546
>>20081557
lol.

Well, maybe it's really the same guy. We will never know.
Still can't decide and wifey making it even harder.

Anons, as much as i love my wifey, if you want to be really free, never get married. hahaha

>>20081553
>And you are because of the flippable lower filter, able to clean the funnel.
i was about to blow up on your but then i realised by funnel you meant the basket
yeh cleaning the basket is a bitch
because without an ultrasonic cleaner i dont see how you could perfectly clean the basket normally.
i wish the italians werent so fucking retarded and sold spare parts more often
like with the E&B i would 10000% buy like 20 baskets and just change them out every 6 months

>>20081569
just buy both faggot
and justify it by saying it will be better for when guests come over you can make 2 pots at the same time.

>>20081573
>i was about to blow up on your but then i realised by funnel you meant the basket
Yes, technically seen the basket is nothing other than a funnel, holding a filter, which makes it being a basket.

My Bialetti moka pot has an aluminium funnel and the filter is held in place by three indents.
I used a round steel bar to flatten them a little on the inner side by rolling over these indents with a little pressure from my hand.
Just make sure you are not flattening the cropped fitting that holds the funnel in position in the moka pots boiler.
After this was done, i could pop out the filter with a thin and long steel pin by inserting it via the funnels small opening on the lower side.

There was a shit ton of stuff inside. Now i clean this funnel every 3rd brew or so.
Feels better doing so.

>>20081616
hmmm
interdesting
im far too much of a pussy to do that
knowing me i would break it somehow and have a nuclear meltdown because i fucked up my beloved E&B moka pot

>>20081553
>But wiifey wants me to buy an E&B. What do?
Realize you married up. Either a broken giannina has caused an anon to schitz out for a year, or MULTIPLE anons have been plagued by shiny trash.

>>20081579
That’s not a good idea, because by having two moka pots with different filters he will need two different grind sizes if the needs to make two moka pots at the same time.

With that said, the Giannina’s is good and versatile, it’s easy to clean but keep in mind that when you flip the reducer between 1 to 3 cups you’re not getting the dose reduced by 2/3rd, you’re close to having 50% of the dose and also the yield is close to 60 grams (3 cups yields 120~130 grams). It’s not a big deal, adjust the water and so on, but it’s just worth to remember since it’s an extra feature.

When the Giannina is new, for a couple months or more, depending on the use, it will be hard to close the mechanism because it has to loosen with the use.

If you’re in Europe also check this mola also, it has a reducer too but it’s not as fancy as her big sister: https://amzn.eu/d/10GItF6

Lastly, here’s a picture of the top opening of the 1L Hario Buono with a scale. The internal opening measures circa 73mm so the 75mm sink strainers would fit but I’d buy something slightly larger so it sits securely. On Amazon I found 77mm strainers so that’s what I’ll probably buy.

Keep in mind that from the opening to the handle at the bottom there’s a bit less of 10mm so you wouldn’t want to exceed a radius of 80~82mm for a circular strainer.

Before ordering the piece I also need to measure the brewer of the Flair to see if it fits inside the strainer (most of them are shaped like baskets), which should be between 50 to 46mm.

At worst I’ll go to a blacksmith and ask him to make me a drilled stainless steel piece with my measures.

>>20081623
Lol, yes, it takes balls doing so and i had my doubts also if i'm honest.
But since i'm an autist striving for perfectionism, i went down the road of mental suffering to end up in a "clean funnel paradise" (does this make sense?)
The knowledge of old coffee residues accumulating in the funnel gave me meltdowns.
I simply had to do it.

>>20081643
>with a scale

*with a ruler

>>20081643
dont even think about replying to me with reddit spacing again.
also i will never buy a giannina
and i cant imagine buying anything less than a 6 cup

>>20081648
>autist striving for perfection
Just like the giannina tard, what a coincidence.
Perfection doesn’t exist and you will always find something to complain about.

>>20081660
That's the curse of being an autist anon.
I can live with that.

>>20081648
yeh i left mine to soak in vinegar and water for 3 days and then i tried my best to clean it after that
it cleaned it a bit but after that i just said good enough and tried to forget about it
also it should be "sterile" considering all the boiling water its exposed to
if i ever buy a second E&B moka i will fuck around with the old one.
i remember being told when i was a kid when i wanted to learn how like electronics worked and shit by taking it apart. "1 is none, 2 is 1".

>>20081639
She's a quality trad wife in every aspect.
Maybe i buy both the E&B and a Giannina.

>>20081670
I also considered doing this instead, but was not sure if the vinegar will damage the aluminium. Some alloys can get corroded by vinegar.
This was the main reason i did not do this.

Mokafags keep shitting up the thread. I'm drinking coffee over here

>>20081657

Moka pot filter tuner here.
The fact alone being here on 4chan reading and posting is enough of an evidence to say we all are somehow autists.
No fucking normal person comes to this place. Wether it is /ck/, /g/, /tv/, /pol/ or /b/ or the other boards.
We just have to accept this.
Especially those that think they are somehow above the rest of us.
Their level of seething is beyond every scales ability to measure it.

And if people think this is a weakness, think twice.
The level of effort most of us put into shit that others think is totally unimportant is proving my thesis.
No matter if you are a filterfag, presstard or a buttsexpresso gay.
You do things the way you do and can't stand other concepts of making coffee. Thus the seething and coping here.
I myself, have no problem with the other concepts at all, but i find it funny to get the reactions when even mentioning "moka pots".

The Giannina fag is only one of the bunch here. So in the end you guys are all competing about who is the most sticking out and remarkable sperg. This totally includes me.

He's a faggot when he spams aeropress. He'll be a faggot in a few hours when he starts spamming the flair.

Someone mentioned the flair.

Well it was supposed to be delivered today but the courier rescheduled the delivery for tomorrow, so I have some more time to obsess over stupid shit and listen to your opinions.

THIS guy right here:

https://youtube.com/watch?v=c3xxpbt6Ylw

Preheats his flair by putting the brewer on top of his Hario Buono(tm) by laying it just over the lid with the cap inside the hole, without using stuff like strainers and such to maximise the steam exposure, and as you can see in the video the temperature strip reaches 80C but we don’t know how much time it’s rested in that position. He the does a second 30-40 seconds preheat by pouring boiling water in the brewer so it’s fully 90+ degrees Celsius.

Question: is it necessary to do the second preheat step? Can I rest the brewer on top of the kettle, without strainers, just on the lid, and wait for it to be heated? Is the strainer really necessary?

Thanks

Update: I found 2 strainers from a shop here, one is 75mm and the other one 80mm.

The 75mm fits perfectly but it’s not safe to use because it has to stay perfectly flat otherwise it can roll inside (it’s doesn’t fall) and you don’t want to do this when there’s boiling water under, also you need silicone thongs to remove it safely when it’s hot. I don’t have them and it’s too dangerous.

Now, the 80mm one is perfect with measures but it has a major problem
which is the bumps under that makes it unstable and non flat on the Hario, you can avoid this by turning it upside down but you loose the protruding piece that makes it easy to grab it and lift it when it’s hot. Also there are holes in the external part and this concerns me because the hot steam can melt the handle (the instruction manual warns not to use the kettle without lid for this reason), and finally there’s written on the package that this strainer is not suited for direct contact with food, so I don’t know if it’s a good idea to boil water under that and also lay the flair brewer over it because it will go in contact with coffee and the water I will drink.

So many questions, so much uncertainty.

>>20083134
The picture has been forgotten

>>20083031
Just leaving it on top of the kettle, you're probably never going to reach full preheat to the temperature you want, because while it's sitting there soaking up heat from the kettle it's also going to be losing heat to the environment and unless you're going to leave your kettle sitting at a full boil with it sitting on top for a ridiculous amount of time, it's not likely to heat full that way. Just flushing it with some water right before you brew is pretty much always going to be the most efficient way to bring it up to final temp, pre-preheating on top of the kettle basically just eliminates the need to do multiple flushes with hot water, so you waste less.

>>20083153
So anon, if I understand correctly I can do this procedure?

>fill the kettle with water, put lid on top and also the flair brewer
>bring to a boil so the brewer reaches a not high enough temperature but it’s still hot
>fill the hot brewer with boiling water so in 30-40 seconds it’s fully preheated while I grind/tamp or while I simply wait

Right? I’d be ok with this

>>20083188
I would imagine that should work for you yeah. Definitely test it yourself and see just because there will always be variations with your setup we can't predict, but I suspect that workflow would probably be fine.

Every time I make a throwaway reddit account it ends up being permabanned for antisemitism, it's a lost cause anon.

I tried, I really did, but a man's gotta do what he scooby dooby doo.

What's a proper ratio for frenchpress? seems like i'm using a shitload of beans. It's a 1l french press.

>>20083789
That's a good looking afternoon coffee

>>20083797
The white spot on the foam means underextract

Bros why do mtf trannies get my dick so hard?

>>20083134
Just stick a wooden spoon or a chopstick through the brew chamber and balance that on top of the kettle while it boils.

>>20083852
Forgot to mention I suck off mtf trannies

>>20083789
1:12

>>20082659

it looks pretty nice anon. I bet it will be even better if you let it sit in the fridge

>>20083789
I use the same ratio that I do for pourover, so roughly a 1:16

For both brew types I'm usually brewing about 45g of coffee to 750mL of water, because that's where the ones I have max out.

>>20083914
How many coffee beans is 45g? 12?

>>20083916
No, 16 can't you read?

>>20083928
Can you send me a pic of your butthole?

>>20083910
It sat in the fridge overnight before it was touched.

I've never been into cult-like following of youtubers, but james is just so much better than all the others. Lance is a soymanchild, morgan looks like a faggot, and all the others are just bald or weird and want to shill products

>>20084014
James is the only one whose background is actually just coffee, all the rest of them are failed english majors, or gay tiktok influencers who jumped on the coffee bandwagon to get an audience and now pretend to be experts on shit. It's the Babish/Ragusea effect in full swing.

>>20084029
>all the rest of them are failed english majors
Yes anon. Thats who works at coffee shops. James was a failure who had to shill gaggias at a department store for years.

>>20084064

and he did a great fucking job at it

>>20084014
The problem with Hoffmeme is that he's already covered pretty much all the relevant topics in coffee (aside from decaf), so most of his new stuff end up being meme videos and filler. He's made a successful business based on his Youtube channel that gets funded by his Patreon and allows him to do stuff that most other content creators probably couldn't, so he's perfectly entitled and justified to do this. But ultimately his content is now not really as interesting anymore.

Plus there was one product which he gave a relatively negative review, and since he has such a large influence on the coffee community it essentially accelerated that product's failure. So the creator of that product threw a bitchfit and blamed James for ruining her company (despite the fact that the product being shitty was the main reason it failed), then James apologised and took down the video like a cuck. So at this point, you can only assume he'll give broadly positive reviews (which possibly gloss over key drawbacks) on his channel because he doesn't want small coffee businesses to go bust.

What was it

>>20084122
It was a coffee drink called Elixir.
This was the original review that got taken down: https://www.bilibili.com/video/av92252894/
This was a follow up video he made that references the situation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6I5QqmVZYY8

Granted, he still has more transparency than the majority of reviewers on Youtube. But his videos (like anyone else's) should still be viewed with an open mind while being aware of his own personal preferences and ethics that will influence his opinions and objectives.

new brian quan just dropped

>>20084029
Aren't Morgan and Lance also barista champions?

Is a kingrinder K6 for 110 USD a good deal?
I prefer light and medium roasts and mostly make aeropress, pour over and moka pot.

Gay faggot buttsex.

>>20084029
James was a failed musician.

>>20084189
James has gay faggot buttsex

>>20084161
Nice. I was wondering if you got yours too. Darker than what I normally drink. Dropped ratio and temp down. Kind of tasty. I might see how it spros up later.
>>20084180
At $100 it's the best deal in coffee. $10 tax isn't bad.

>>20084014

>>20084225
Glad I'm not the only one.

>>20083789

>>20084225
It's so depressing looking at Morgan now, just a couple years ago she was hot as fuck, but now she's just another fat white woman claiming to be bisexual and nonbinary for diversity points.

>>20082925
Idiot.
I reacted on
>Same reason they don't wash their moka pots.
And that's simply wrong.

So go yourself and be the retaerded nigger you always dreamt of.

>>20084280
Pretty sure she's always been nonbinary.

>>20083449
>antisemitism
thats not a real word
it doesnt actually mean anything.

>>20083829
>mtf trannies
you can just say trannies anon, 99% of trannies are mtf, so it goes without saying.
but if you are talking about ftm then you do need to say since they are such a small population in the trans community
and it means you want to fuck feminine men
but i would avoid trannies and just move onto traps, femboys, eboys.
they have alot of the same qualities but without the actual delusions and mental illness.

>>20084500
>nonbinary
Kinda new here but she seems to carry herself pretty decent for someone with possibly a fucked up mental illness
Is she not just a tomboy or something? (I understand that in today's age that's not even really a thing anymore)

>>20084166
>champions
idk but i know they competed.
lance i think won some competition but it wasn't the WBC
and morgan competed in the WBC but i dont know if she won.
regardless those are things done after they started as coffee tubers.
hoffmann worked in the coffee industry, won the WBC, started a roasting company all before doing any youtube stuff.
which is the point of this conversation. he was doing when there was no audience or fame or money or influence, he just did it because he wanted to.

>>20084189
aren't we all...

>>20084762
Nonbinary is the current trendy thing because people realized they could get special lgbtqqiftrxb747fh++ points while not having to change anything about themselves, so you see loads of girls claiming to be nonbinary. Morgan has a bf or husband iirc.

>>20084142
ok so i wouldn't be surprised if he took down the video simply because its a shit video and far below his standard of quality.
the editing is garbage and his whole demeanor is off.

Holy FUCK the SSP so are good in Ode that it's not a joke, I can't believe everyone says the Gen 2 are "for everyone" as they literally taste like they dump corn syrup into the brew.

>>20084784
I can't even put into words how disgustingly immoral that is, what a shame

>>20084784
Yeah she's fat and married to an ugly guy

I just want dudes to buttfuck me bros I'm so fucking gay. Right in my asshole

>>20084981
Does it hurt?

>>20085046
Yes and I love it

>>20084784
Those are called pronouns, ESL.

This one has some attributes of wine. Very fruity. Guten Morgen.

>>20085087
Because it hurts? Or in spite of it.

>>20085215
Are you going to block the country with your fellow farmers Bert?

>>20084500
Pretty sure that's not a real thing

Does anyone know a good chocolate frosty-cchino replacement? Wendys got rid of it from their menu and replaced it with some garbage cold brew shit.

I'm using french press for the first time in my life and the crust has almost immediately sank to the bottom of the pot instead of floating on top, did I do something wrong?

>>20085722
why would it float?

>>20085733
I watched some youtube videos and thought it's supposed to keep floating until you press it down with the plunger (something something releasing co2).

>>20085738
https://youtu.be/st571DYYTR8?feature=shared&t=97

>>20085750
ok, I did stir it so it must have been it.

I just made a pour over with a tea bag at the bottom, and how titballs, batman! It's delicious!

>>20084959
Good shit anon. You got MPs?

>>20085196
If someone has they/them pronouns they identify as nonbinary

A year later i still dont understand why I bought it. Must've been some fever dream that lead me to buy this thing. What was I thinking?!

>>20085899

Espresso has been pulling super fast the last two days. Haven't changed any variables (grind, amount of beans, etc.) what's going on

>>20086236

https://youtu.be/JxLS-cpgbe0

>>20086256
Thank you
>>20086296
Simply a replacement moka pot for my old busted one.
>>20085956
Off the beans all I get is "roasted coffee scent". From the cup I get a little bit of a fruity flavor but its over extracted, need to dial in the grind.

>>20086308
>buys a limited edition Bialetti
>uses gas stove to damage the paintjob in less than a week.
bruhhh ...

>>20086337
Based.
>>20086331
Yeah I figured. That roast note just cuts through everything. Even on the mojo profile I posted earlier.

>>20086236
Is it just a tin box or was there bialetti coffee inside?

>>20086296
Bialetti partnered with dolce gabbana

>>20086428
It has a bag of bialetti coffee inside. I'm guessing they put the bag in a tin so you have something more concrete to keep after you use up the coffee, since you're paying for the design anyway.

>>20086308
you made your coffee wrong
see that rushing coffee? yeh thats bad and a sign that you dont know how to temp control.

>>20086337
>Damage the paint job
I think I will give the paint job character. Picrel is my previous moka pot, of significant character.
>>20086433
>>20086428
Yes coffee inside. Pre ground, but that's all I usually drink anyway, I got a hand grinder to go with this.

that concludes this unboxing, thanks all for attending, glad to be back among the moka club.

>>20086432
>Bialetti and Dolce Gabbana linked up?
Need it or sneed it?

>>20086501
Don't send a pic of your moka pot after a few months of use to the dolce gabbana designers, they'll feel raped.

>>20086510
I think it looks really nice, but I'm not paying $120 for it.

Well, it just happened.

One day I’ll buy my own electric Piaggio Apecar and drive around living comfy adventures while selling coffee from the mini coffee bar in the back.

>>20086669
Very nice! I like it a lot. No electronics, minimal moving parts - no planned obsolescence.

>>20086669
You will never escape this mental illness.

Slightly increase extraction/evenness, different style screens act differently, headspace matters, keep showerhead cleaner.

Everything's ok, the portable bag was just deformed because someone opened and repacked everything - probably - without the autistic precision of the wagies from the production lines, shit happens.

>>20086817
I just got the most stupid idea for an instagram reel, it's so stupid and pretentious like the espresso made inside the green pepper that it will become viral if done correctly. Lol.

The "wells" can overlap, its the hole coverage that matters. This one is a bit better than the ikape. Less edge biasing.

>>20086828

no they dont
they overlap closer to the center of the disc

>The salesperson told me this $50 product was just as good as the $500+ product, what a steal! This is almost as good of a deal as that time where the IRS told me I owed them thousands and I was able to talk them down to just 50 dollars in Google Play cards.

>>20087149
Thing is, not the nonna nor the nonno made the video and the captions, it’s the subhuman mutt of their grandson who made it, the same person who filled the video with Italian buzzwords to tell the world that he’s a REAL Italian while he speaks the whole time in English to his own grandparents.

The filter boxes have the rarest OFFICIAL pepes on it. Not for your average chud.

For pour overs, what coffee/ water ratio do you guys like to use?

>>20090237

>>20090237
1:17 max for light stuff. Lowered to taste for different roast levels.

>>20090237
