Hey guys, RETARD here. I messed up big time. So I like coffee a lot, yeah? Except I only go to cafes to drink it and I can't make it at home. At the same time I got ahead of myself and promised filter coffee for 10 people at this villa we're staying two nights at. I've never even made coffee before. My favorite cafe will lend me an origami dripper or whatever it's called plus an uhhhh kettle? Forgot what else I needed. I'll get some beans and have them grind them for me in advance because I don't have a grindr and then I'll watch a youtube short on how to make it.

Am I going to cook or am I going to get cooked? Any advice? Surely it can't be that hard.

I'm just super duper tired. Of course I'd need the correct filters. Maybe I should just get an aeropress. It's retard proof. Wont be able to farm aura points with it though and I think it's a waste of coffee when you can just use a real filter method. Damn.

I will now reply to your post. As long as they're not coffee snobs, they won't be able to tell or really care. It's hard to fuck up filter coffee. Worst case scenario they'll just load it up with cream and sugar. Some of them will probably do that regardless.

I guess I'll be the autistic no fun at parties guy if I tell them adding cream and sugar will be retarded and they'll ruin that shit. I do think they owe me some respect if I'm buying expensiveass beans and bringing all this gear to make shit for them. They're not coffee snobs and that bothers me, because as soon as I started talmbout coffee and getting filter, because I'm not about to make 20 espressos with a damn flair, this one bitch started inserting herself with her dogwater portable "espresso" machine that uses dogshit capsule coffee. It's going to be so difficult to hide my powerlevel and not shit on her garbage and ruin her mood and fun.

I'd like to report on swedish boiled coffee. I assume it is a equivalent of what you americans call cowboy coffee.
It's... surprisingly pleasant despite being not very deep or flavourwise interesting. It's coffee, in a good but not super sense, just regular good coffee flavour in a non-opiniated way. Marries itself extremely well to milk too.

>ESL here. Does round family mean fat fucks or is it an actual term for a specific part of the family?
He meant
>go around family member's house
in text it's proper to mark dropped vowels like that with an apostrophe, so he could have written
>go 'round family member's house
although it sounds better to use a descriptive verb like
>walk around family member's house
>wander around family member's house
>>
>>22016787
>round
short for around
as in "going around to my family members house"
>went around; gone around; going around; goes around

you can also replace (a)round with to

Grind slightly less fine, don't tamp, brew more steadily (pre-boil in a kettle) & do the first dribble pull off the heat thing. Add spare boiled eggshells to the top to take the acidity/bitterness down further, pinch iron two's worth.

I’ve been grinding it with a Timemore C5 ESP hand grinder. Started with 0.9 clicks (0.5-1.2 clicks is the espresso/mokapot recommendation according to the grinder) and today I did 1.4 clicks.
I’m not wasting anymore beans today to show you pictures but basically, I’ve been increasing clicks everyday by 0.1.
>and learn to brew better
If there’s anything I think that I’m doing wrong is that I don’t use aeropress filters for it because I don’t have it or that I’ve been manually holding my mokapot above the burner because my stovetop is too big for it

I’ll try french pressing it this morning to see if its a skill issue on my part or the beans

What espresso machines around $700-$800 would you recommend?
I have a Rancilio Silvia and exactly one month after the guarantee period it started fucking gushing out waterfalls instead of espresso, squirting coffee everywhere around it as well and making a mess. Tried replacing the gaskets, the screw, the shower head, tried to grind finer, tried to grind coarser, tried a completely different grinder, different beans, different baskets, still the exact same shit.
I'd really like something that is not a flimsy piece of fucking garbage.

Been looking through some forsaken boxes of an associate's estate, and found a ceramic Kalita 101 pour-over in excellent condition. Don't know how it compares to other types, but it seems pretty cool. Never owned a pour-over before, and I typically prefer tea, but this looks like it could be fun should I ever get a decent grinder and beans. Hell, I can't beat free anyway.

They're some of the biggest retardsuckers in the world.
>With prices for Original Line capsules ranging from $0.65 to $0.85 per pod, this translates to a staggering $52 to $76 per pound of coffee!

>The more premium Vertuo lineup is even more expensive, with pods costing between $0.95 and $1.50 each, depending on the size and premium nature. Some of the premium 7g Vertuo capsules can cost $1.25 each, giving a per pound coffee cost of $81!
