Yeah I'm sure.

I drank half a cup, it was dark roast. Dam pretty good I tasted the roastiness.

>>13326207
What's your budget? Imo that machine is good enough you should keep using it until you can save up for a DE1 and a solid grinder, more in-between steps will just waste money. You could replace just the grinder first and make the built in one vestigial for a more immediate upgrade.

That machine should be at least fairly competent though unless it's a particularly difficult to work with coffee, so I would work on your puck prep before upgrading anything. An easy thing to try is stirring with a needle to distribute before tamping.

>>13324717
Meh, Breville can be alright, the BDB has a better grouphead than 99% of home machines. At least it's actively PID heated to the correct temperature instead of designed as a heatsink to work around the limitations of over half a century ago. The lower model ones not so much though, and especially not built in grinders.

>>13325183
The trouble with dilution is that the lower brewing ratio is less effective at extracting the coffee. You can grind finer and stir more to help counteract this, but because the aeropress has a percolation (water is pushed or pulled through coffee) stage, you risk getting more astringency from channeling. There's not really an easy answer to do it without compromising quality, but you can always try and see if the hit is worth the trade to you. If you try it (and do try it before just buying other shit) and it's not up to your standards, check out the Clever.

>> No.13326954

100% of consumer machines are plastic trash. The BDB is no different. It's irrepairable and is guaranteed to break one month after the warranty period ends because Breville makes disposable trash. If you have $1200 to drop on a BDB then you are better off spending $300 for a proper HX machine.

That grinder is nowhere near good enough for espresso. You're looking at something like a Niche Zero at minimum, and IMO those are actually pretty lacking since conical burrs don't extract nearly as well as unimodal flats.

The Breville still makes better espresso than any e61 machine. The e61 is a trash design, and the entire HX concept is 100% obsolete ever since the PID was invented. It will break sooner, but at least it's far a better machine while it's working.

>>13332077
No. Onyx is trash at roasting. Get the same coffee in a 5oz bag from Passenger who will roast it far better, and charge you half as much since it's a smaller bag.

You're retarded if you think a group that isn't 100% temperature stable is in any way acceptable in the computer era.

The Decent does it with computer controls, virtually all good commercial machines use saturated groups, some nice home machines like single group GS3s and similar use saturated groups, and even the fucking Breville manages it with a PID at the group. It's unacceptable to still be making machines that require user intervention for thermal stability (cooling flushes for HX e61 and warming flushes for DB e61) when the problem has already been completely solved by better groups.

Did you read my whole post? The Breville manages temperature stability with a pid in the group. If a "plastic piece of shit" can implement a grouphead heating system, then any machine lacking one is worse than a piece of shit. The e61 and the HX system made sense 60 years ago when computer control was not an option. We have computers that can keep temperature better now to deliver water how you actually want it perfectly every time, and groups that keep that water at temperature instead of serving as a heatsink to work with an old fashion contrivance to get around not having PIDs. Nowadays you're either a lazy manipulative company if you're still selling e61s or a fucking idiot if you buy one.

>>13332433
Ehhhhhh, yes, BUT a competition roast ≠ a production roast. It's not that they don't have technically skilled people, it's that they're rather inconsistent and roast to an overly dark style the overwhelming majority of the time. Passenger is far safer to order from and expect you'll get something well executed. Plus you can order a 5oz bag of the Eugenoids, you really don't want 12oz of it. It's extremely interesting and I loved trying it, but it's almost hard to drink. Straight up sickeningly sweet.

PIDs do not reflect exact brew temperature on an HX machine, and water flushes are still necessary to get the grouphead to the correct temperature before starting your shot. Which is fucking absurd when it's a solved problem.

BBD solved it.
Decent solved it.
GS3 solved it.
LMLM solved it.
Synesso solved it.

To add Tetsu’s method is pretty good if you want a consistent cup versus trying to dial in your grind to so Hoffman’s or Rao’s or Perger’s method.

No it's not. A saturated group means the boiler coming out around the group to keep it at exactly boiler temperature. It's completely impossible with the e61. And furthermore impossible with any HX because it requires a brew boiler by definition.

It'll just mess with the consistency of the coffee and will give you an inconsistent grind in the same way stale beans get softer and won't grind the same as if fresh.
This is before we even get to the fact that gasses are constantly escaping your coffee beans regardless of wheather or not you froze them.
Just get yourself an air tight container to store your beans in and for the love of all God don't grind them first, they'll just go stale faster.
I know it sucks because some coffee is only in season for a few months of the year, I'm giving you the benifit of the doubt and assuming that's why you want to freeze it and not that you're buying in bulk.

you're a dumb faggot. george howell is a s++ tier roaster and he freezes all his beans. it's perfectly fine for home use, if not recommended. of course at a coffee shop it's pointless to do.

Got a chance to brew the regular Pilon. It doesn't say anywhere online or the package, but judging by the fact it doesn't mention being pure arabica, the "gourmet" version mentioning being pure arabica, and it smelling like there is robusta in there, I'm going to assume it's a mix of the two. It tastes pretty good. I think its better than the espresso robusta mix that I got at Aldi. Its roasted a little darker I think than cafe llave, but it isn't burnt like Bustelo. Not sure what the arabica/robusta ratio is, but it tastes better than Lavazza Classico and is closer to Lavazza forte, but not as strong. Overall I like it. It's on the more bolder flavor side compared to llave, but llave doesn't have that bitter robusta after taste.

Use it as an excuse to mess with flavoring your coffee or have cubanos.

Okay what's happening.

Also here's some autistic syrup I made while I got distracted during cooking tacos, Off the top of my head brown sugar, cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg, dried smoked chilis, ginger, a little vanilla and allspice; recipe and measurements pulled out of my ass but I probably could've made way more syrup given the quantity of spices used.

honestly anon thats not that much caffeine, you must not drink a lot of coffee.

an americano is just espresso and hot water, so a 7 shot americano. The average shot of espresso has only 63mg of caffiene in it. You basically ordered a drink with just under 500mg of caffeine. I was drinking that much in 6th grade. Most shitty starbucks sugar bombs have caffeine in that range and those are meant for women and children. Go back to drinking your McCafe fucking bullshit or Drunkin Donuts or whatever you go, weak pleb

Regarding the espresso argument, I'm 99% sure espresso beans refer to the distribution of arabica vs robusto, not the roasting itself.

It's a blend/roast level of coffee considered good for espresso, I realize you're going through your "le gamer in society everything is a lie and deception and out to get me" phase but it's a little less than random given stakeholders actually sort of give a shit. Is it worth it? I don't know, but burden of proof isn't on me to prove a negative.

I'm not the one chimping out, blame yourself for shitting up the thread. Somehow in your tardrage-fueled brain "these are the beans you should probably use for espresso" means "these are from an espresso plant"

There is no such thing as "beans that you should use for espresso", you fucking ignorant cunt, which is why everyone here is calling you a retard.

Imagine thinking all beans are equally the same for espresso and calling anyone else stupid, I get you're an uneducated moron and apparently resorting to samefagging now, but these things called adjectives exist, these are words that exist as a way to describe things.

Not him, but no one said that. It's just that "espresso beans" are a marketing buzzword. beans from quality shops are usually suitable for both espresso and filter. espresso roasts are just specifically roasted to please the most normies and for retards who would otherwise buy months old beans that can't into espresso

Brew time maybe? I was doing 20 hours at room temp but it started tasting off once the weather warmed up. Switched to 12 hours instead and it's been fine. I think the size and consistency of grind could influence it too.

if you make cold brew you can probably get away with having the shop you buy it from grind it or a less expensive grinder. Since you'll be grinding coarse particle consistency will never be super exact even using an EK and cold brew is probably the most forgiving extraction you can do.
