update on the problems I had with the silvia, with the water ignoring most of the puck. I watched multiple videos on the model and one of them said "it takes finer grinds than other machines," so out of frustration I set my grinder to settings more fitting for turkish coffee and it fucking worked, I got a great flow rate. i've wasted so much coffee on that oversight. kill me

It's smoother. There's a clear distinctness between the different parts of the shot, before it was all muddled together because of how rigorous the flow was. It's clearly more acidic than sour now, but the beans I got were more acidic in flavor characteristically anyway. Overall much better.

Well my kettle decided to die on me in a very potential housefire hazard sort of way today. I only noticed because I heard it hissing when it was "off" before I left the room. It just heats up whenever its on the base now regardless of if its powered on and it smells like burning plastic or something if you're close enough and its been running long enough. I would've made cold brew green tea yesterday if I knew this was going to happen because now I'm afraid to keep using it and I haven't picked out a new one yet

Any <$50 goose-neck kettles with temperature control that /ctg/ would recommend? Preferably from somewhere that ships to west coast USA in 1-2 days like Amazon because I need my pour-over coffee and green tea fix for life to be worth living

Finally got my kingrinder after amazon took like 2 weeks to ship it (no idea why burger amazon is so slow to ship) and then dpd dicked me around for 3 days.
Build feels great, although a bit at the bottom was chipped (luckily doesn't make it wobble and you don't touch that place while grinding either). The external adjustment is off like it is with a lot of them it seems, the zero is not at zero. But luckily it's off by exactly 5, which is another marked point. So it's not that hard to keep track of.
I upgraded to it from a normcore (which I've sold by now so I can't post a side by side) so I'll do some comparisons there I guess. I wish the top lid was a part of the handle since I'm not planning to use it with a drill. You can attach it with a rubber band they give you, but it'd be nicer if it was all one piece of metal like it is on the normcore (even though the normcore feels cheaper built otherwise). They both have a rubber band, with normcore's having a sort of thumb rest thing, but it never felt quite right and I prefer holding the kingrinder. The good thing about normcore's thumb rest however was that it could hold the handle when you stored the grinder, something I miss now. Normcore also had a hard bag and shit, which is probably not important to most people but I travel to visit my mom fairly often and it was a nice way to take it with me. Oh yeah and as far as the actual grinding goes, it was rougher on the kingrinder, either because it's chewing through more at once or because it's new, but man it's way fucking faster. I didn't time it but it felt like half the time.
Won't comment on the quality of coffee it makes because I haven't got it dialed in yet, I've made a cup with it but it's a bit bitter, that's my fault though. The grind did look more consistent, but I'm not confident in judging by appearance.

A decade ago I visited this board because I had just gotten a French press and it seemed like everyone had a chemex. I got a moka pot so I came back to this board and it seems now everyone uses a v60. What changed?

People prefer better coffee now. Chemex filters are trash and they're hard to clean. The chemex's sole virtue is how good it looks.

New coffee, 1st roast. Natural process heirloom variety Ethiopia from Yirgachefe. Wasn't paying attention so I went a bit past a city. Anyway:
Dry smell: Wow. Powerful blueberry
Wet: still blueberry, but more syrupy
Hot flavor: Yep, blueberry right up front, middle merges very smoothly into...banana (yeah, banana), followed by milk chocolate, an orangey aftertaste piques the tongue; a remnant of the chocolate combined with soft citrus acidity. Not quite pleasant finish, but not terrible. Delightful coffee overall. Might not get a cold taste of this first cup. Need to try this one a tad lighter next roast.

Been a couple years since I've had a blueberry natural. Love those. Never had banana in a coffee before, so that's pretty neat.

Cooling cup: blueberry subsides a bit, fleeting flavor, or am I growing tongue blind? Banana middle rounding off, replaced with another more acidic berry. Is that blackberry? Raspberry? I can't tell. Aftertaste is a more prominently acidic orange/red berry tingle on top with chocolate bittering underneath.

Yeah those are bigboy rips. 24bit flac from someone who knows what the fuck they're doing. Tossed in the ghost hardware ep(same guy, slightly different hardware than below see screenie) since the copy of untrue doesn't have those two bonus tracks. I had some spare tokens on red and have been bumping up the quality of my library since hard drive space is dirt cheap now so win win for us. Enjoy fren. Dropped a cracked copy of roon in there too if you don't feel like paying those cucks $600.

With great restraint I let the cup go cold. Yeah, I was growing blind to the blueberry. Still there, as with the banana, but definitely picking up on a mix of mystery red berries, too. Though the chocolate has muted. Very nice coffee. Very clean for a natural, too. Nice that it's so forgiving at a city+. Second favorite coffee of 2022. Thanks, Ethiopia.

It's really something though. Blueberries and bananas. Never had a coffee like this. New twist on the blueberry/chocolate naturals. Love it.

i have been slowly learning more about audio equipment over the years and my friend(in prison, triad stuff) is huge into audiophile shit and when he talk to me it quickly turns into white noise.

What's the cheapest "good" espresso machine? Is it one of those like big handle ones you have to push yourself?

[Anonymous No.18544149]

If I'm not retarded that's a $2400 turntable with an upgraded $2000 tonearm and $1200 cartridge. It's why I don't fuck with vinyl other than collecting. So much worse than the espressohole.
