>>21870176
no he didnt.

I've always wondered how tasting notes work, are they just from the cupping, from the producer?most roasters ship their coffee before it's rested so how do they come up with the notes that may be there round 3-4weeks later when the coffee ''peaks''?

>>21870225
its from the roaster
usually from a cupping.
but dont take them too seriously.
buying based on tasting notes alone is a bad idea.

>>21870225
>most roasters ship their coffee before it's rested so how do they come up with the notes that may be there round 3-4weeks later when the coffee ''peaks''?
They do several sample roasts when they get greens to determine how the coffee should be roasted. They aren't just guessing roast profiles or roasting everything the same.
>are they just from the cupping
yes
> from the producer
producers have no idea how roasters are going to roast their coffee

>>21870240
yeah I slipped into that for a bit and the results were varied. Huh I've been to a few cuppings, it was much more subtle than a dialed in cup. Tricky stuff but maybe my palate isn't developed

You've been agonizing for two months about spending ~$70 on shit you'll use daily for years. You have zero need for flowrate on a pourover scale. You're not making espresso.

Since I know ball I'd ask what beans they have and if washed I'd get a double espresso, if natural or anaerobic I'd consider a double macchiato, but only if they know how to foam the milk. Whole milk too, none of that vegan shit.

Pulled some minmax french roast Lerida Loma from the freezer. Glacial water, little bit of buffer and magnesium sulfate + magnesium chloride. Oh its washed panama gesha alright. Exceptionally clean and citrusy. Delicate. Soft(probably more from the silica in the water). Can't wait to switch it up soon and bust into the 96hr anaerobic wush wush stash.

bought some dark roast colombia decaf and it is supposed to be fruity and sweet and i think i pretty much nailed the brewing (v60) but i still dont like it.
at first when i didnt know dark roasts and decafs especially were supposed to be <=90C it tasted very acidic and over time i got to a point where it's very coffee like but a bit more interesting when hot and it tastes like an orange but a bit less sweet when it cools down but its not a pleasant taste to me. i know dark roast is not ideal for v60 but am i still ass at brewing or is it supposed to be citrusy and sharp?

Anyone ever get a toasted cumin note in your coffee? Brewed a pourover today and the toasted cumin scent was so strong I thought I had gotten some cumin in my grinder or brewer. I had to smell all my coffee equipment to doublecheck. It's funny 'cause yesterday's cup was pretty normal. It's not even specialty coffee, just supermarket single-origin.

Have to bloom HIGH (204 F or so) to get those notes, then pour lower (176-185F). Get the Hario Dark flow rate papers if you really want to get into the weeds. Otherwise try the above but French Press.

my kettle only does increments of 5C below 90C so i kind of have to kind of wing it
I do 45s bloom 1:3 ratio and i'm not sure if i should pour it as slow as possible so it doesnt dry up or just pour, swirl and let it sit exposed for 20 seconds

I used my superautomatic to make a hazelnut syrup iced skim milk latte.
It was okay. I'm trying to finish off the syrup because it's not that good. I switched to skim milk for dietary reasons.. I might switch to Light milk, it's not that much different in calories but actually has some fat for flavour.

>>21878329
The difference in skim and whole in a latte (~6oz milk) is only like 40 cals. That's barely anything. You could cut that out anywhere else and have an actually decent drink. Definitely less cals than in your syrup.

How many gram of ground coffee needed for single shot of expresso?
I've been using 7-8 g but other people said 18 g.

>>21878355
>single shot
for what purpose

>>21878362
Is it too small for one cup of coffee?

>>21878364
yes
if you ask for espresso at a cafe anywhere in the world (except maybe coffee bars in italy) they will pull a double which is usually 18g.
even if you ask for a single shot there is a high chance they pull 18g but just give you half of the yield.

Made the worst coffee I have ever made today.

I wanted a coffee that didn't filter out the oil with a paper filter. Think french press, but I wanted pour over flavour so I busted out the chemex and a re-usable metal filter.

Forgot how bad it chokes, and I ground for V60. Choked the metal filter almost immediately. Fuck it, how bad could it be? Well, 10 minute draw down and it literally tasted like fucking grass.

Honestly I am entering the coffee market, I am a huge snob and always buy my coffees but it is a bad habit that I would like to break. I just want high quality coffee so you tell me what the best way to obtain this is.

Kind of a minimalistic coastal type of setup, something to suit picrel

>>21887105
Profitec Pro 500 or ECM Classika PID
and for grinder Niche Zero/Mazzer Philos/Option-O Lagom P80
or if you want a hopper than idk something like the Eureka Mignon Libra

>>21887105
>minimalistic coastal
I would say white xbloom and a white zerno would look great.

I've been trying this recently and can't believe how good it is:

>>21887164
Why would you need a zerno with the xbloom?

>>21887004
alright thanks

>>21887399
I'll try it

>>21887399
>>21887493
18g extra fine grind dark roast at 1:5. Lance wouldn't even call that espresso.

>>21887555

Lance can die for all I care

>>21887681
Rude.

>>21887466
he wouldn't
maybe he was thinking of the meticulous

>>21887466
>>21887998
idk what happened. I was trying to give him a grinder+espresso machine+filter rec but I guess I forgot to type the machine. Meticulous would actually look good here with the zerno.

OKAY FUCKERS HOW DO I GET MORE ACIDITY WITH THE AEROPRESS

>>21888486
Use it as a melodrip over a kalita wave

>>21888486

>>21888486
Change your water.

>>21888486
brew with vinegar

It's time I finally graduate from my entry level hand grinder
Do I got ZP6 or DF54 if I don't care about espresso? No I don't mind hand grinding every cup so the DF54 doesn't gain any points over the ZP6 for being electric I just want grind performance
Are these two grinders even comparable? They're around the same price and are both talked about a lot as being amazing value for money and making great cups

>>21888898
I wouldnt be buying a 1400rpm 54mm blendy espresso flat for pourover.

>>21889096
Common consensus I've seen online is that it does pourover and brewed coffee very well and I guess looking around the Ode 2 is actually only another £50 compared to the DF54 so I should probably be asking about that compared to the ZP6

>>21889107
Theyve said the same thing about baratza encores for 15ish years. Id be looking at a df64 with aftermarket burrs(ssp, lebrew) if youre not going hand grinder. Zp6 will be a very different presentation.
https://espressoaf.com/guides/burr_catalog.html
https://www.robertasami.com/burrtopia

>>21889125
A DF64 with SSP burrs is in a completely different realm in terms of budget though. The DF64 alone is double the price of the ZP6 never mind the burrs on top of that
The ZP6 and Gen 2 Ode and especially the DF54 are at least comparable in price

>>21889137
Nice things cost money. What entry level hand grinder are you replacing and what are you hoping to gain?

>>21889182
$22 P0 trounces that all fucking day long.

>>21889164
I'm not against spending good money to get something good in return but from what I've heard there's extreme diminishing returns once you approach the $250-300 range and you don't see many big improvements until you spend a whole lot more than that so I'd rather stick around that budget if the performance is there I mostly just want to know what the difference between the ZP6 and similarly priced electric grinders is because I already know the ZP6 is evergreen in terms of quality that's why I'm using it as my sort of benchmark because I don't want a small improvement from what I have, I want something good
I've got a shitty Timemore C2 and the grind distribution is so terrible I can't get a consistent cup no matter the brew method or the coffee used. One cup will taste great and then I'll grind the same beans on the same setting and brew it the same and it'll suddenly be way more bitter.

>>21889216
>just want to know what the differece is
Zp6 is designed with large outfalls. Thats means at its finest setting, its still spitting out pourover sized grinds and minimal fines. Excels at clean, hyperclear, light roast coffee. This is very different than a high fines high rpm blender of a df54 thatll spit out tons of fines for textured, muddy espresso that may be preferable for dark roast milk drinks. Ode 2 is a fancy looking box with a weak motor(wont hold up to grinding espresso fine) and a burr set that targets more middle of the road, medium roast pourover coffee. Youre paying for the Fellow name and get an american company to bitch at if shit breaks prematurely. Your c2 will be most similar to the df54.

>>21889245
I've got nothing against the flavour I'm getting from the C2 when it decides to grind ok and not give me a bitter cup for no reason. I'm mostly seeking a consistent grind profile and better burr adjustment since the steps on the C2 are enormous which I suppose every grinder in this price range will get me those things
I don't exclusively drink light roasts but I never go any darker than a medium light/medium roast brewed either pourover, moka pot or the oxo rapid brewer so maybe the ZP6 isn't the best choice for me

>>21889265
Sounds like an ode is in your future.

>>21889276
i hope an ode isnt in anyone's future

this coffee sucks

Yes, it's shitty clickbait garbage, but can someone explain this shit?
Why is the grinder supposedly fucked? Can you not just disassemble it and clean the burrs?
t. electric grinder with a french press brainlet

>>21890228

zoomer and boomer in the current era has nothing to do with actual birth years.
it correlates to a subset of behavior.
you can be 50 and your behavior and language is indistinguishable from a 16 year old brain rotted child.

>>21889245
so if i just want a decent electric grinder i should buy the df54?

>>21890291
For purely filter i'd say ode 2. For milk drinks or moka stock df54 might be the way to go. Hyper-aligned df54 + reverse mod + 54mm ditting steels would also be a very good option for filter.

>>21890266
>>absolutely cooked
>as a serious statement?
Not exactly.
I made the mistake of thinking "surely people aren't THIS retarded? It must have done something to that grinder I can't see on my phone screen"
after reading comments talking about ruining the grinder.
Late night. Didn't think too much about how stupid most people are, even compared to me.

>>21890319
well it does tie into zoomers saying "oh it requires a small amount of work and cleaning? ITS FUCKING RUINED"

>>21885136
i ordered it by accident as i've said
i dont know i think i got the technique down pretty well but the difference in taste between kenyan and brazilian which should be very different is really not that big
it's a nice hobby i guess but you share it with the worst faggots on this earth (and epstein apparently also did v60 pour over)

>>21890309
i just wanna grind for my coffee but i wanna buy only one grinder for like 30yrs

this coffee rocks

>>21892139
of coffee i mean

>scale turned off mid brewing due to low battery
did the bloom on feel and could turn it on for the rest of the water, still had goffee

>>21871153
I would order a water and immediately drop it on accident, then I would tell them not to worry because the wet floor sign has us both covered.

just discovered that peanut butter sandwiches pair excellently with coffee
this will be my breakfast from now on, calories be damned

>female barista makes me v60 and espresso
>v60 tastes great, espresso is aight
>go to coffee shop the next day

I am perplexed.

>first time adding 2 teaspoons of solugar to my 50% coffee milk after months
I'm cooming buckets

>>21892374
>solugar
what?

>>21892376
sugar

>>21892342
strawberry jam/preserves go great with peanut butter and coffee

For me its the ORB.

Anyone have recommendations for a beginner coffee/espresso/cappuccino machine? I tried googling but everything from "reviews" to shittit threads feel like paid ads. Looking to spend $250 or less and I have no experience making coffee besides drip and French press.

why does coffee taste so much better late at night when I shouldn't be drinking it

>>21893946
I think if you drink first thing in the morning both your brain and your tastebuds aren't fully woken up yet and you'll likely a bit dehydrated so the flavor is more dulled. Even waiting an hour or two after waking up makes a big difference.

>>21893946
forbidden fruit(bean(seed))

>>21893946
all pleasure is derived from tension. if something is forbidden it will seem more indulgent you'll get more pleasure from it.

For myself I just do v60 with 15g beans 260g water and brew directly into my cup. If I wanted to do one brew for multiple people into a carafe how should I adjust the recipe?

Getting an Encore Esp soon and I won't be dissuaded. Any good mods/third party accessories I should look into? Saw a base that angles it slightly on Etsy, which seemes like it could be useful.

i bought decaf again and flow rate is still dogshit it's like 45s longer than caffeinated.
light roast, v60 02, abaca white, 15 clicks timemore c3s (~550μm supposedly), 1:2.5 bloom 45s bloom 95C rest at 93C
it does _look_ finer than same setting for my other coffee but 15 clicks is the highest i've gone and i feel like it's already pretty watery
do i have to get faster filters?

>>21896338
fuck the one i've just made is so good i wonder what i did probably pouring

>>21896338
Decaf almost always produce more fines than their caffeinated counterpart. Try to cause less agitation with your pour so less fines clog the filter. That's probably what happened here >>21896343.

>>21896366
nah i did evreything the same i just did 200ml so it was fast
i do bloom swirl 45s pour to 60% wait 15 seconds pour to full swirl and wait
i pour low to surface in circular motion trying not to hit edges beyond coffee bed

>>21896409
maybe swirl less or don't swirl at all
ever try vibrating the brewer instead of swirling?

>>21896420
i get dogshit uneven extraction if i dont flatten the bed
>ever try vibrating the brewer instead of swirling?
seems retarded

>>21896421
vibrating does a better job of flattening the bed than swirling, and it forces less fines into the filter. Some people call it wiggle but it's the same thing.

>>21896447
alright i'll try tomorrow

>>21871632
>flat white to judge how good their coffee is
wouldnt a spanish latte be a better pick for it?

What are some good espresso beans on amazon?

.t just bought my first machine because I wfh in bumfuck nowhere and am sick of mr.coffee.

>>21896784
Why amazon? There are tons of good roasters you can order from online. Amazon has trash beans.

>>21896790
Doesn't have to be Amazon as long as the prices and shipping are aren't insane.

>>21896784
nothing good on amazon.

11pm iced latte :)

>>21896798
What do you consider insane prices? Happy Mug is basically as cheap as you can get and still have fresh well roasted beans.

>>21896798
Atomic Coffee Roasters are solid roasters for a reasonable price
Think ~50 bucks for 2 lb of a single origin ethiopian compared to ~65-70 bucks from "better" roasters like Onyx (their Tropical Weather is usually my go to) or Verve (my favorite roaster)

>>21896448
Just for reference, this is the best demonstration of vibrating I could find online: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D3QYZ6bAe60&t=224s Pretty much what the xBloom does but with your hand.

>>21896638
no

who after dinner ffee'ing with me?

>>21896409
Doing too much imo. Bloom w/3x the amount of grounds you use for 1-2 mins. Pour in like half your bloom amount and let drain to remove all the air pockets. Pour in rest using small circles

Is it worth upgrading the portafilter I got with my Bambino? There’s a Brown Hill bottomless portafilter I can get (used) for $20.

>>21896984
>used

>>21896984
Put that money towards a normcore high extraction basket instead.
