On my last milk chocolate egg. Coffee came out perfect today!

What's the bare minimum I need to spend for a decent manual burr grinder? I'm tired of my shitty Krupps blade grinder and am willing to drop some cash on a better cup of coffee in the morning.

If you're looking for cheap and cheerful, you'll be replacing it often. Seriously consider biting the bullet and investing in a mid tier one like the hario pro for like $60ish usd.
It's a stepped grinder, I've heard some anons murder about grind consistency not being perfect but I've not noticed anything too bad. I brew airopress and pour over.

Thanks! They are what I think is closer to a butter cookie; the ones grandma's use the tins to hold sewing supplies. I actually use a thumbprint cookie recipe from allrecipes, but dont do the thumb print part. I just roll them into smallish balls and smoosh them with a fork. The recipe is pretty versatile and have made a wide range of flavors with it. Thus batch I made three juice of one lemon, and a big dollop of rassbery jam to make raspberry lemonade flavor.

I always recommend Lido E it's $200, stepless and can hit a full grind spectrum. There are several alternatives in that price range as well but I own a lido so that's what I recommend.

I'd agree with the fellow poster suggesting the Lido. I didn't get the E like I should of and ended up getting the 3, but I've owned it for 2 years now with no problems in getting the grind I need.

James Hoffmann has a video that covers grinders that fall into the price range of the lido.

I have Hario Pro and it's really good. I have to say that the dial for adjusting grind size is kind of weird and that it only holds a max of maybe 40g of beans so it might be difficult to grind enough for multiple cups at once.

I got the espressione it's great. Used twice a day for over a year still works perfect. Good consistency, lots of settings. Paid like $40 for it on sale at Kohl's. I think it's like 70 on Amazon.

Two things which seem to also be common on all cheap ones:
>Ton of static
>You gotta smack it when it's done, at least 0.2g get stuck in the burr chamber due to static

The consensus seems to be the baratza encore is the way to go if you can afford it.

My moka did brew this a tad fast, so I know that emphasis the bitter notes, but whatever nuance they were trying to get by blending light and dark roasts is made void by the fact that the dark isn't well done, and has an overpowering burnt taste.

[Anonymous No.12368758]

>>12368691
I only mention the brand names as they are low end. None of my crap is expensive and a lot of it can be repurposed for other stuff. So don’t buy Mecraft because it’s better, buy any old $10 dripper is my point. I actually brewed coffee right in my cup until I got the dripper, just held onto the filter and poured over so it was almost like a teabag - actually made really great, strong coffee. One other thing, if you’re new, get darker roast as it has less caffeine.

[Anonymous No.12368766]

Ah okay, thank you. And as far as taste is concerned, which coffees are “better”?

I’m not that sophisticated. I prefer dark roast because less caffeine. Someplace I read Eight o’Clock won some kind of Pepsi Challenge among grocery store coffee, but the serious coffee douche will have many good reasons my crap sucks. Try different little packages for fun, but be careful of light roast. I almost gave up coffee while experimenting with light roast as I couldn’t take the jitters.

Anyways just get a better hand crack grinder and grind your own local (FRESH) beans, it's really not hard. Unless you smoke a carton a day or are legally taste-retarded then you will notice a difference to months-old grocery store shit.

[Anonymous No.12369960]

A burr grinder. I'm not gonna try to convince you to spend more money than you want to but baratza encore is a pretty good starter grinder, it's a one time purchase for something that will give you pretty great results for a long time, or you could go the cheaper hand grinder route with something like a hario or porlex. Blade grinders just smash the beans into an extremely inconsistent size distribution, so bigger pieces will extract slower and the fine particles will extract really fast, so basically your cup will have a lot of sourness and bitterness with no real balance, and it won't produce any consistency between uses

It was just a recommendation. The hand grinders are cheaper, and I gave you the reasoning why blade grinders suck compared to burrs. Why spend any money on a cheap tool that will fail you down the line and do a bad job while it works?

[Anonymous No.12370011]

>>12369985
I can’t argue that a blade grinder is better, but for the difference in price you could buy a lot of coffee and play around experimenting for a couple years and have a lot of fun. By then, your sophistication and appreciation for the bitter undertones or terroir savior faire douchery May mean you’re ready for a douchey “crack” grinder. But as a dilettante in many various interests, I suggest start simple.

I got something similar to your pic except it's made by Takeya. I like using it and it does it's job well. Takeya recommends putting ice into the container after your stuff is done steeping and shaking the shit out of it. It's a bit tedious but worthwhile and easy with proper coordination. I can say it's a pain to clear cuz there's 4-5 different parts.

TL;DR I have something similar to pic related and I recommend it for cold brew and iced tea.

I got this hario filter bottle but it's only 65cl. It's annoying to clean out if you want to avoid getting sump down your sink. Taste like normal cold brew.

Bodum company makes good ones. I've never seen a full metal french press desu; maybe online you could find one. I've seen glasses inside plastic cages but I don't think you'd want that.

But my bodum FP is very sturdy. Has a small metal lining, the glass is extremely sturdy and has gotten no cracks ever (and I've dropped it a few times and clinked it against desk edges and stuff like that), and the rest of the pieces are good and sturdy too.

cold brew concentrate. about 1 part beans to 4 parts water by weight, french press grind, stir and allow to steep at room temperature for 8-16 hours, filter with french press (or paper filters, but it will be SLOW), chill, dilute with milk or water to taste.

honestly, extraction is so slow that it's pretty hard to spoil a batch, so you can vary ratio and steep time quite a bit and still get a perfectly tasty brew.

Do a typical v60 directly over ice with the weight of the ice factored into the amount of water you're pouring. Use bigger ice cubes so it won't melt before the coffee's done dripping. Use a higher water/coffee ratio than usual like 1:10.

I've literally used a moka pot once in my life and made it more or less correctly, lightly bitter at worst and no sour. You're probably under-extracting or using too low heat if it's sour.

Either your using coffee grinds with too many fines or it just not your type of cup. Moka makes a poormans espresso so it can have a bolder flavor compared to pour over. They are not a meme though.

>>12390010
>does it need milk
No. Much like espresso you can add milk, drink it straight or add a little hot water. I only have two cautions to give about drinking it straight: I'm guessing your using a "3-cup" moka which depending should be fine if drank straight. There was an anon on here that said they tried drinking a "6-cup" moka pot straight and it fucked with their stomach. Other consideration to drinking it straight is the acid content of your coffee. I got a coffee from drinktrade that while good, was so acidic that even after adding hot water and a bit of half&half, the creamer would curdle a little bit; no the half&half wasn't old I tested it.

So yeah as long as the coffee your brewing isn't stupid acidic and your not drinking over "3-cups" you can drink it straight, but feel free to add water or creamer if desired.

About to make some coffee after seeing this. I used to use a shitty Cusinart drip brew with already ground coffee but I've changed my ways in the past few months. I started buying a light roast beans from a local roasting company that are really good. At first I got a manual burr grinder but I like to make a liter at a time so I switched to an electronic one, and I got a vacuum coffee maker.
It's such a huge difference. I already loved drinking coffee but now it's on another level.

>>12392526
I personally think it tastes great and it's always consistent. I like the fact that all the grounds get wet at once and stay that way until it's done brewing. I think it brings out the flavor more while not being overly acidic. The first time I tasted it I noticed it was much more "clean" tasting.
I also like that there's a very small amount of waste. Some of them use paper filters which are a lot smaller than regular coffee maker filters, but I have a Bodum ePebo and that uses a plastic filter. The only waste I have is the grounds.
They are fun to look at and I always end up watching it work because it's cool looking. Makes for a decent conversation piece too since they look kinda crazy.

Can’t argue with free, but call it personal preference but I enjoy Cuban coffee, especially made as espresso or a cortado. The standard Havana Club is pretty average but the more exclusive offerings are sometimes worth it. Not to mention how cheap good-to-great product is down there. Out of curiosity which rums and coffees did you dislike down there? Of course like most /ck/ stuff most of it comes down to personal preferences.

[Anonymous No.12392862]

>>12392826
I don't dislike Cuban rum, I just don't think it's all that exciting. Pretty average non-French Caribbean style of rum. Light bodied, goes down easy, can be good, usually forgettable. Same as Dominican, Jamaican, Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rican. If they sold it in American liquor stores I might buy it sometimes for variety, but there's nothing special about it.

The coffee is all burned cinders, ground up, and then stored in a scorching warehouse for weeks. Could it be good? Who the fuck knows. I wouldn't bet on it, but I could be wrong. But grinding just before brewing, or stopping the roast before the second crack? De-gassing? No need, it will never see a cup that soon. That's not how they do things there. Like the rest of the Caribbean they stop the roast when there's fire coming out of the roasting machine, grind it up, stick it in a can, and a year later push some hot water through it and add milk and a ton of sugar. It tastes good, sure. But so would anything. And it all tastes the same. Exactly. The. Same.

Moka pots make a semi-espresso kind of coffee and you can get good ones for 30-60 bucks. It isn't the same as coffee, but it can have that sort of deep, nutty, crema-topped coffee.

If you're gonna get a home machine, I suggest raising your budget to like 400-700 or even higher and do research into the best machines.

I've heard CBD was good, but I can take the chance on a false positive, as my job is regulated by the department of transportation. Could lose my license over it.

Thanks friend. Yeah I'm trying the vaping route. It's making things easier, and I'm hoping to be smoke free by next month.

Yep, love audio books. I have this old series on the works of Nietzsche narrated by Charlton Heston. Been through that series three times now.

On the CBD thing buy from a lab tested brand not head shop shit. You can purchase CBD isolate instead of full spectrum, though the full spectrum has the "entourage effect" of other cannabinoids interacting for a better overall effect. With isolates you don't have any THC, though even with full spectrum I don't think you will test positive for THC unless you're doing a shit ton of it. Been a while since I looked into this stuff but I bought from Nuleaf, I think bluebird botanicals is a good brand too. It's expensive for sure but I didn't use the "recommended dose" of 10 drops and just did one in the morning, one at night and it did wonders for my anxiety. Not sure if you're actually interested but just offering you some more info.

Learning the machine and experimenting with profiles is going great! Once I've settled in a bit, I'll pick up a bunch of one coffee and start my first actual serious experiment with it. I'll probably start with measuring the effects of preheating coffee grounds on temperature curves and extraction yield.

I'm also planning some experiments on measuring the effects profiles have on sediment in the cup, and using blind cupping to determine if this sediment is a reliable measure of body. Something like develop a method that produces a low sediment cup and one that produces a high sediment cup. Then centrifuge a sample to measure sediment weight per ml of sample as well as blindly try to pick out the cup with higher body. I'd like to develop a whole suite of measurements to paint a fuller picture of what a coffee is like than extraction yield alone.

Is it a waste to order fresh beans online and have the company grind them for you? How long would a ~227 gram bag stay fresh?

I need to be set on the right path. For the past few years now I have been drinking k-cup coffee. Usually I will get a medium roast like Donut House, Donut Shop or Krispy Kreme.

I do have a french press and I really do enjoy french press coffee but I have been drinking this k-cup stuff for a while now. Is k-cup stuff okay? I fear that I am just drinking mediocre coffee that is squirting from a small plastic cup. I also fear that drinking hot coffee that has squirted through a small plastic container is somehow negatively effecting my body.

Even a typical automatic drip has way more efficiecy/utility/cost effectiveness than a keurig. I recommend aeropress/frenchpress/cone drip but a simple American automatic drip is okay if you're used to buying discount k cup pods. Ditch that keuring jawn.

Any type of supermarket pre-packaged coffee with sugar tastes really good to me because I have a sweet tooth. The Starbucks/Dunkin ones are a guilty pleasure from time to time. However, the price of them kill me. On the other hand, I feel okay not drinking them often because they make you fat.

Go calculate how much you're paying per gram of coffee, and compare that to what you'd pay from fresh roasted specialty coffee, then compare them by taste. Ask yourself if it is worth paying more for garbage just because it's less work.

I had to go to the hospital recently and I had the first coffee out of a Keurig that I've had in like five years. It was worse than I even remember it being, it was like cigarette smoke and acid with a weird artificial "chemically" aftertaste that stayed in my mouth for hours.

Any tip for less acidic aeropress?

[Anonymous No.12413360]

>>12413254
any of the following may help:
>slightly darker roast of same origin beans
>switching away from african beans if that's what you're currently drinking
>moving towards a more arabica-heavy blend (or to entirely arabica) if you're currently drinking robusta
>if concerned about flavor (sourness) rather than effects on stomach, try extracting a little more: slightly longer steep time and/or slightly finer grind

hope this helps

Use lower temperature water when you brew, this will make the biggest difference for aero as long as your grind is set right and you aren't just underextracting

I only eat sweets in the morning with my coffee. I might in the afternoon have a couple of my butter cookies, but those are small and dont contain a lot of sugar. I just like something sweet with my coffee in the morning, and I don't sweeten my coffee. I try to eat around 200cal worth of sweets and mind the amount of sugar. My diet isn't terrible, but I need to exercise more; I'd probably be losing weight by now.

Huh? You mean the cup number listed alongside the model? In that case then yes, the "6 cup" model that I have for example makes the equivalent of six espresso shots.

Yeah that's what I meant, I think a shot is around 75mg caffeine and I usually have around 200-250 at once so I probably picked a good size with my 3 cup model
