gesha soup out my ass
>>21623081PISSOUTMYA-oh im late :(anyone else feel like they need a coffee before they make coffee?2 days in a row i forgot to change my grind setting before grinding so i ground for the wrong brew method
>>21623110>>anyone else feel like they need a coffee before they make coffee?I've definitely fucked up some coffees before I had some.
>>21623110i just keep my first brew real simple and make a moka
>>21623113>a mokai was making moka this morning but my grind was still on espresso from last nightand i cant remove the beans once i've put them in the grinder so i just have to stand there looking at my mistake knowing i have to grind it even tho its wrongso i ground it and just put it into a little container for laterand the reverse happened a couple days agomeant to grind for espresso but i was on moka grind from the day beforeoh wellall part of the fun :)
>>21623127glad youre not too bent up about it
>>21623127>cant remove the beans once i've put them in the grinder so i just have to stand there looking at my mistake knowing i have to grind it even tho its wrongCouldn't you stop the grind once you realize and set it to the proper grind size? At least save a portion of the dose.
>>21623135>and set it to the proper grind sizenoat least not on the hg1pi mean there might be a way to do it but im not interested enough to find outbetter to just commit to the mistake and move onat least its on the right setting but for the wrong brew method so i can save it for laterit would really suck if you are dialing in but forgot to change the grind setting so you make 2 brews on the wrong setting knowing it should be differentwhich has happened to me, where i made a mental note while drinking that it needed to be finer but then not actually changing the setting so i just pull the same shot the next dayand then there is the classic where you grind without the catch cup being under the grinder so it just goes all over the benchluckily i think thats only happened to me twiceonce on the rok once on the hg1pgood coffee todayhbu?
>>21623145>made a mental note while drinking that it needed to be finer but then not actually changing the setting so i just pull the same shot the next dayif it's the case that you know you're going to pull another shot the next day, just adjust the grind right after taking that first sip. >>21623145>hbu?decent coffeemad coffee-piss
>>21623081Whore.
>>21623158>dont be stupidthanks boss
Good coffee this morning. Hopefully yours is too
>>21623568a bit coarse innit
>>21623677It’s 3.1 on my Fellow Ode 2. This one might just look a bit coarse for some reason
here's a controversial take are v60 brewing methods a meme?
Every day we siphonin'
>here is a take>*asks a question*your punishment will be 8 hours of ball crushing
>>21623787you know what i mean now answer the "question"
>>21623778>are v60 brewing methods a meme?no
>>21623568Shit looks dry af.
>>2162314545 minute moka/journal sessions but you can't remember what you brewed last. Sounds like a skill issue. Here's some Honduran anaerobic red honey on my espresso profile for the usual guy. You getting any good greens down there?
>>21624075>45 minute moka/journal sessions but you can't remember what you brewed last.your info is outdatedand when i was doing it they were in the moment and i was caffeinatedin the situation you are replying to its the next day and im un-caffeinated>You getting any good greens down there?nomostly boring stuffi had a dream recently they were selling green natural process burundi kibingoi woke up and raced to my computer to buy it only find it was just a fantasyi think i still have some blue mountain stashed way in the back of my freezer...but ill save that for a special occasionthose beans look greathave you considered making chocolate coated coffee beans?
>>21623812are you asking about recipes?no, they can change the profile of the coffee
>>21623780that a halogen burner?kinda wanna get one meself>>21624075those trays look kinda nice but at the same time they resemble my ashtray
>>21624269yeah the halogen burners are a bit slow but nice
Second brew of the day
>>21624248yes, recipesi've been using hoffmann's recipe and today i decided to use the 4:6 one, and coffee literally tastes the same>inb4 your beans are shitno they're not
>>21624307whatcha brewin?howd it taste?just sat down with a v60'd washed kenyan, menot bad, bit sweet, bit savory
>>21624311if youre not comparing them back to back, you cant really say they literally taste the samealso 4:6 isnt a recipe, its a framework
>>21624307>
Women ruined coffee by popularizing sugary sweet drinks that are barely reminiscent of coffee and yet ransacking the coffee cultivators, creating excess competition and driving the prizes up. How are they capable of such destruction?
>>21624721based
>>21624721i dun geddit
>>21625120cadmium induced schizophrenia, dont worry about it.
Drinking soup
>>21625420i dont fucking believe you
>>21624135>have you considered making chocolate coated coffee beans?Nope. My mother was a confectioner for years though. Pretty sure you need to roast them extremely soluble(and/or use cheap low altitude garbage) so people don't fuck their teeth up on dense beans. Got that guys package(2 honduran, 1 guat, + various teas) in the mail today so tomorrow I get a nice sunday to myself. Panama gesha sips and some real good beans up on the roast. Might actually sample the elkin guzman cm. Little over a month rest on that so it should be poppin.https://thecaptainscoffee.com/products/colombia-carbonic-maceration-elkin-guzmanhttps://thecaptainscoffee.com/products/ethiopia-sidama-daye-bensa-naturalhttps://thecaptainscoffee.com/products/honduras-las-botijas-don-abel-natural-organicOnce I deplete those bags its wush wush season :)
>>21625431>Pretty sure you need to roast them extremely soluble(and/or use cheap low altitude garbage) so people don't fuck their teeth up on dense beans.thats unfortunate
>>21625431>Pretty sure you need to roast them extremely soluble(and/or use cheap low altitude garbage) so people don't fuck their teeth up on dense beans.i eat high altitude light roast coffee all the time. and my teeth are fucked up. this is not an issue.
>>21624311try a two pours one and see if there's a difference
I ran out of coffee some while agonow for 3-4 days my muscles/nerves are stressed and in constant low level of pain that doesnt go away unless I eat a lot of ibuprofenis that normal
>>21625615No, go see a doctor
>>21625431>Pretty sure you need to roast them extremely soluble(and/or use cheap low altitude garbage) so people don't fuck their teeth up on dense beans.Way too smug about your wrong answer
>>21625615Are you getting proper sleep? And at a normal time for humans? I once thought I had coffee withdraw after 4 days without it but it was really because I was on a break from having to do anything and I would sleep from 5am to 3pm and never actually get proper sleep.
>>21625677The sleep rhythm is the same as it was beforeI suppose no coffee means its faster to get sleep and the sleep is deeper
Coffee addicts are familiar with the migraine-like headaches that occur when constricted blood vessels in the head expand due to caffeine withdrawal. Disrupted sleep patterns and going back to sleep often trigger migraines.
>>21625640Try chewing on some Substance.
>>21625712schizo
Getting some anareobic coffee from these Onyx fellas. What else do they have that'd you guys would recommend - Geometry looks pretty promising
>>21624721
could you under dose espresso and then make up the rest of the headroom with a really thick puck screen?which would also eliminate the expansion of the puck.
Monday morning is here. I didn't get a chance to do a weekend reset because I tried out tea for the first time
>>21627584>I tried out tea for the first timehow did that go
>>21627614Well it was with tea bags which I understand is like the equivalent of instant coffee, it was kinda flavorless unless I used two. I want to try some strong, funkier tasting stuff instead of just hot water
>>21627584You've never drunk tea before?Not even dunking on you, just hard to believe, and kinda interesting if true.
>>21627670yeh you really do need top quality loose leaf i dont drink tea but family and friends do and i want to offer them the same quality of tea as i have for coffee.i probably spend $300-500 a year on tea that i dont even drink lolsorry i cant recommend anything outside of australia
It is National Coffee Day btw
>>21627871>postal service loses my coffee order>roaster says they cant do anything about it>postal service says they cant do anything about it>re-buy the same order>the new order and the "lost" order arrive on the same day
>>21627876i didnt mean to reply to yousorryim tired
i wanna buy a delonghi ECP3420 and get a single+double shot basket for it. I have a 1zpresso jx-pro manual grinder already.Do you usually need to dial in all over again if you're doing single versus double shots? On weekends I'd be pulling for me and the wife but sometimes I'd be pulling just for me. I guess we could always just pull doubles and split or drink all of it alone but I'm curious if i should bother getting both baskets at all.
>>21627916>i wanna buy a delonghi ECP3420why
>>21627938very cheap yet capable machine from what i've read. I'm not spending 800 on the next best thing.
>>21627939get one of these insteadhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7HIGdYy5of4
>>21627944>5yo vidon top of that Hoffman seems very pessimistic about all non 1k+ machines it feels like whereas more nuanced reviewers will tell you if something's passable or garbage at the least.
>>21627916no one actually uses single shot basketsalso yes, you're gonna have to dial in all over again anyway
>>21627950>>5yo vidis he wrong?if not then it doesnt matter when the video came out.also you have said nothing about a grinderif you arent using a good espresso grinder then this whole conversation is moot anyways
>>21627950>very pessimistic about all non 1k+ machinesas should bepoors should stick to poorover swill
>>21627958>>21627916i said i have a 1zpresso jx-pro grinderIt doesnt mean he's wrong but if he were to do that vid today the entire lineup could be different
>>21627950Buy a secondhand GCP and a Gaggimate or Gagguino and you have a Decent for less than 800.
>>21627962>the entire lineup could be differentsurebut it wouldnt include the ECP3420 and anything from this video is better than the ECP3420 >1zpresso jx-pro grindermy mistake nothing after you said "ECP3420" was worth reading.$500 is already extremely cheap for an espresso machinei could not in good conscience recommend any electric machine lower than that price point.+ another $3-500 for a capable grinder.also i know the jx pro can do it but how often have you used it at espresso fine?i hear very often from people with that or similar grinders that its capable but a pain in the ass to use every time they want a shot and just sell it for an electric grinder.
>>21627916Wait for black friday sales. Get a brass boiler gaggia from wholelattelove, clive, seattle coffee gear etc.>single versus double shotsYes.
>>21627977i've been making espresso fine with my jx-pro + flair neo with the bottomless portafilter but i want something slightly faster that has a steam wand.There's a vid that's 4 months old from Lance hedrick saying the modded ecp3420 is goated for budget picks if you want to get into espresso and you can even mod a PID on it (which i will not do). His next best pick was the gaggiamate so overall that seemed fine for me. Saw a lot of other reviewers saying it pulls shots fine. I just need good enough, not barista competition tier.
>>21628012>gaggiamatethats a great choice
>>21628020Compared to gaggiuino, not so much.
>>21628029Slightly less features but also less expensive and you’re not waiting months to get it
>>21628054Significant difference in feature set. One can run basic profiling, the other has near Decent level control. Not saying *mate won't eventually get there, its just the difference of like 5 years dev time and 25 people working on it. Pretty sure Lance didn't like iuino because they called him a faggot on discord and wouldn't cater to him while the mate guy sucked him off.
