I tried again this morning without sugar and without the aeropress filter.
Later I will try with the aeropress filter for good measure.

So, there's a layer of oil floating and it breaks in small drips if I stir but it quickly coagulates again. It's not as bad as the previous pictures, which tells me that the sugar does something.

I have a double-wall insulated all-metal one though that I rather like though.

The only functional difference you might see is that some of them come with two mesh screens to try to filter more of the fines, instead of just one as usual. I'm not sure how much it helps though.

I have a stainless moka pot which I regularly wash and rinse under hot water very evening at the end of the day, then I dry with a paper tower to remove all the oils from the internal parts and the chamber where the coffee is being collected when brewed.
It's the oils from the coffee, also because there's no utensil involved in the preparation.

No, but it probably adds more "oils" or enhances the effect of the oily surface when it melts or it even interferes with the fat web that doesn't coagulate anymore and you can see the shiny droplets everywhere.

This provided that these in the video are dissolved oils floating on the coffee and not something else, but that doesn't make sense because the aeropress filter should've blocked all of them, wouldn't it?

[Anonymous No.19555691]

Recently gone off coffee 'as a drug'. 30+ years of at least three cups a day, dipped in and out of everything from cheap instant to caring about grinding methods.

Now it gives me the shakes and I feel like I'm having a heart attack. A few (actual) panic attacks. Withdrawal was a nightmare -- took about two or three weeks -- but I've never felt better off.

Is this normal, or is it some kind of caffeine hypersensitivity I've always had/somehow developed?

It doesn’t fit on my moka pot.

>>19555780
I already did many times, it slows the extraction and the puck is more evenly wet at the end, however some body of the coffee gets lost due to the filtration.

It works well, however the coffee still looks like the video the other anon posted above and I’m curious to know what that greasy layer is too now.

[Anonymous No.19555794]

>>19555788
It also is perfectly sealed between the upper screen and the puck, as you can see the imprinting of the gasket on the filter.

So the next possible step is to do as >>19555753 suggests or to add 2 Aeropress filters in the moka to see if the added filtration layer removes that oil.

[Anonymous No.19555811]

>>19555794
It'll help with getting rid of the fines as well. Most likely a much clearer cup.

Only issue is the added paper taste, can treat that to a certain degree with a rinse of the filter but it'll still be there.

If the x axis is price and the y axis is quality, it's a sigmoid function with all grinders under $400 being pretty bad, grinders from $500 to $1000 being significantly better, and the >1k grinders being placebo-tier increases in quality

I've been happy with the espresso ground by my kingrinder k6, so that's kinda the minimum I'm aiming at. I know it's a manual so it's obviously going to be cheaper, but I can't imagine you need a $300 price increase to get to something of comparable quality with a motor.

[Anonymous No.19556928]

>>19556904
The biggest thing $300 more buys you is flat burrs.
Of course, many people prefer the additional body that conical burrs provide to espresso, particularly for medium to dark roasts.
The advantages of flat burrs are mostly oriented towards light roasts.

Depends on how light your beans are and your basket diameter. Dark roast in a 54mm breville is going to put less stress on the motor than hyperlight in a sworks high flow. Grinding at chirp on ssp mps probably isn't the best idea, but if you're pulling medium roast turbos you'll still get enough life out of it for $150.

[Anonymous No.19557120]

>>19557058
Yeah, that doesn't look like you're getting an espresso grinder for $150.
According to him, the stock burrs (which the refurb will come with) can't grind fine enough and need to be upgraded to the SSP burrs of your choice.
Upgrading the burrs brings the refurb Ode up to $340, and at that point you might as well get a DF64 and not need to deal with the stalling issue.

Arancini FH was round, small and hard. How hard? So hard that using a fork couldn't pierce the fried batter surrounding the rice ball. The dark color indicated that it was deep-fried a too long. Carefully I picked it up and bit into it. As expected, the batter was hard and broke shards in my mouth. The rice ball inside was also hard to chew and the cheese was minimal. Dipping it in the sauce made it more palatable but just. This arancini was probably cooked with the same level of care and proficiency as a teen at McD cooking french fries.

They would have had to have made it after at least the HG-1, considering it's a motorization kit for a HG-1 or HG-2, so what's your point?

As for the 83a, I again ask what the point is.
That's a $1,700 grinder, burrs not included, and the cheapest burrs they sell are $320, bringing the total price up to at least the price of a Weber Key.

How in the world are you supposed to "Just buy a Wug2 with labsweets for the same price" when that combo is $2180, whereas the Ode being discussed is $150 to $340.

Arancini Americano? A good arancini has a flat base and a pointed peak with a pyramid with rounded edges. Sauce that is tomato-ey with a splash for paprika for heat.

Open box df64 for $299. Espressooutlet.

I've been seriously considering a DF64V actually.
>>19565366
Huh - didn't expect to find a hand grinder that might fit that bill

just bought 2 loveramics glass cups
both are twisted glass
180ml and 360 ml
i wish they had something in between those 2 like a 220ml
:)

How much is Fellow Opus better than Bazarta Encore? With a focus on V60 drips.

I don't do espresso at home, at most the fake one from aeropress+prismo.

I just literally today got two Loveramics espresso cups and two 150mL tulips lmao

They're probably the worst 64mm grinder you can get, other than a used superjolly. It's just that everything better is 3-4x the price. Zerno, orbit,p64 etc.
>>19565376
They'll be comparable. Ode is a different story and will shit on both. You can get a refurb for $149.

>>19565377

Someone make a new thread. I'm in bed phone posting and don't want to get up to grab an image off my computer.

I got the Eggs in anthracite and thought I'd bought the Tulips in denim but turned out I fucked up and ordered white which is boring but it's still nice to pour into and drink out of.

Italians screaming about Illy cups vs Chinese made ceramic. The usual.

>have been using my Kinu M47 completely wrong the entire 6 months I've had it
>a 3.0 is three full revolutions of the grinder and not just the arrow pointing at the number 3, that's actually 0.3
God I'm so fucking stupid. But 3.0 is still way too coarse for a V60, the grounds are more like shards and the water goes straight through

it makes me think of a perfect boiled egg yoke.

was that the wedgewood saga?

I'd start at 4.0 on my phoenix and go down from there, but that's when I was doing 35g batches. Take it apart and make sure everything is sitting correctly.

Couple weeks after, but Wedgewood memeing was definitely happening.

Yeah I'll do that. The coffee actually ended up pretty good even though the grounds definitely weren't the right consistency.

This might help you. Printable grind size chart for reference. For what its worth most of the world brewers cup people are doing coarse brews. Dial by taste. You paid for all that adjustment, use it.
