Its all preference. People spend just as much on endgame grinders for filter as they do espresso, but not having to buy an extra 400-10k+ machine certainly helps the budget. This is the new "long black" tech in action.

theres something very fresh about my morning coffee today. ive been using the clever dripper for it for a few months now, but today i used the aeropress. with it inverted (metal filter) it sat at the 2.5, after i stirred i had to add more water. after pressing it out there was only a 3rd in the mug, and in weary about adding much more water usually, but in this case it worked out and is tasty.

Shit's great. It's kind of Turkish adjacent flavor wise. Probably my second favorite non-espresso method. Its really just directly heated full immersion with an unusual way to drink it, the extraction fundamentals of it are solid. Get the even extraction of immersion brewing, but pumping in heat helps avoid the extraction cap that usually comes with immersion brews

Is French press good or bad?

[Anonymous No.18637116]

>>18637105
depends.
it can be good. but it has a much lower peak than something like pour over, but to reach the peak of french press takes almost no effort or learning at all. so thats the trade off.
if you are lazy and you just want "good enough" coffee then yes the french press is good, i would not use light roasts tho.

it only takes me a bit longer to make a pourover than an espresso. also espresso from the same beans can taste a whole lot different than pourover because youre extracting different compounds via the pressure/flow rate at in a much more concentrated drink

do you factor in the time it takes for the espresso machine to warm up? my machine takes about 40 minutes to warm up before i can use it while it only takes a few minutes to boil water for a pourover.

light roasts are going to give you "trouble" dialing in no matter what grinder you have. i have a monolith max with light/medium burrs, which makes it a lot easier, but not foolproof. if i didnt have this i'd probably do df64 or p64 with HU or MP burrs

also depends on your espresso machine - light roasts can benefit from advanced features such as flow profiling, preinfusion & blooming.

>>18640766
Yep. Lower rpm + espresso fine takes a shitload of available torque to maintain it. I'm no electrical engineer but I guess even the eg1 with a 250w motor will stall or drop rpm from time to time. The rpm readout on mine is a little magnet on the drive shaft so shows the actual speed(not sure if the motor kit works the same), not just a set number on the display and theres virtually no drift hot or cold start. Reads 407 constant at the lowest 400 rpm. I could fuck around and flip it to conical mode and run lab sweets at 90-200rpm but that seems dumb/would wear out my motor slightly quicker.

So my drawdown took a lot of time, but the bed was even and the last bits of water drained evenly/through the center. I'm drinking the coffee now and while I could probably do better, it is actually quite good. Not bitter, not overly sour, the coffee has a natural level of acidity but the flavors are pretty pleasant everything said and done. My first decent cup of coffee on my fourth attempt.

go to a good coffee shop in your area and try their stuff to get a baseline of what good coffee should taste like

If grind is ok, then maybe default Hario tabbed paper drains kind of slow. Over swirling, pouring too high (excessive bed agitation) can also stall the drawdown. Feels good when you brew a decent pourover man

the time is just a general reference point and will vary pretty greatly by grinder - experiment and go with what tastes best for your grinder and the particular beans you have

Never used a french press before, how good is the seal around the edge of the plunge? I don't want the fine stuff to leak through.

What method of making coffee is more foolproof than a French Press? I think even an Aeropress is slightly more complicated or at least intimidating because it can apparently break cheap shitty mugs if you press too hard. Maybe a Moka pot is as easy to use as a French Press? A coffee machine (pods) is generally expensive so not something a retard would have access to/buy over a cheap French Press.
Espresso machines and pourover both require technical skill to some degree so for the most part only people with 3 digit IQ actually bother with them.

Moka pots require the good sense to check the pressure release valve every once in a while.
