I got a one day ban because I forgot the subject field?
>>
>>21961045
I made a new thread because I was annoyed that one couldn't search the general from the catalog. Banning for such a simple mistake is a bit much but maybe the mods had their reasons, no idea.

Back to subject: This morning I tried anon's advice of pre-boiling the water for my moka pot (OP photo), it altered the taste in an interesting way and I have a hard time describing in words just how. I guess it tastes better, not bad, I'm using extra dark roast. It's maybe slightly less bitter / less acidic?

also
please clean your moka anon
also you can take the metal filter off and clean behind it, if the top of your moka looks like that i cant imagine how dirty the rest of it is, which is making your coffee taste worse
also good chance your gasket is worn out and needs to be replaced.

Washable muslin as a pour over coffee filter: yea or nay?

I have a Sunbeam from the early 90s I use exclusively for brewing tea.
>>
>>21961062
Dark roasts taste like shit if you treat them like light roasts. Light roasts want to accentuate the sour acid in coffee and use lower temperature water and shorter brew times, but dark roasts want to accentuate the earthy bitter in coffee and use higher temperature water and longer brew times. Increasing the temperature of your water is good for dark roasts.
>>
I'm thinking about making coffee infused vermouth in my moka pot
>>
>>21961167
well i would hope you are not putting the vermouth IN the moka pot.
>>
>>21961152
>pour over coffee filter
Actually, what I do seems to be called steeped coffee. Look, I don't know all your angmo coffee words. I'm talking about https://www.etsy.com/listing/4297882843/traditional-pour-over-coffee-filter
I know it as kopi kain (cloth coffee) penapis/tapis/saringan kopi kain (filter cloth coffee).
Boil water.
Pour over grounds.
Stir.
Steep five minutes.
Stir.
Pour through cloth.
Drink.

>A chorreodor is a coffee making device used in Costa Rica in which hot water leaches through coffee grounds held in a cloth filter mounted on a wooden stand, then drips into a container.
Pretty sure they sell v60s in Singa Rica. Keep those slits wide.
>>
>>21961284
I cycle from my coffee maker to the moka pot every time I run out of filters.
>>
>>21961182
This is how I make coffee.
>coffee grounds in a glass French press
>pour boiling water over them and stir
>let steep for 5 minutes
>don't bother using the actual press part
>stir again and dump it all out into a V60 with a paper V60 filter
You don't need a special muslin bag, any normal pour over coffee filter will work fine. Because it's properly brewed for 5 minutes there's no issue with pour speed or drain speed or any of the other autistic shit people do with pour overs either, you cannot under extract the coffee this way.

I only bother to weigh the water I use so the final result perfectly fills my mug. Coffee grounds will absorb their own weight in water, so you need to add as much extra water as you add coffee grounds.

>>21961305
He literally used a Singaporean slur for wypipo and chingchong words for the method. There's no way he's from Costa Rica.
>>
>>21961356
I'm not saying he's from Costa Rica you retard. I'm saying he's using a brewing method from the third world. I'd also be making fun of him if he was posting singapooran babble about vietnamese phins.
>Small Size - Best for our 6 inch Chorreadors!
Kind of strange the etsy listing he posted doesn't call them kopi kain penapis/tapis/saringan kopi kain
>Singaporean slur for wypipo
>Cletus
Clearly a Singaporean term. Cletus is a Greek name. This retard absorbed it from watching The Simpsons. There seems to be very little originality in that area of the world.
>>
>>21961383
The slur he used was angmo. I was the one who called you Cletus, you low IQ inbred fucking moron.

>Singapore
Yup.
>>21961305
Neat. Thought it was just SEA that filtered coffee like that. Do they pull coffee, too?
>>21961334
Yeah, pretty much the same except I use Malaysian coffee pots. They basically look like big metal watering cans. You steep in one then filter into the other then pour back into the first to get more coffee sediment out as you pour it through the filter again. After doing that a few times and all sediment is out, you remove the filter and continue pouring back and forth but with milk now. This makes it frothy. That's "pulling" the coffee (or tea; tea can be pulled this way, too).
Shops tend to just pour the filtered coffee out and pull it between two jugs but most people making it at home aren't so coordinated to do that without making a mess.
Video related. Looks like there's a place in NY to get Singapore coffee.

Girls, girls! You're both pretty.

You misinterpreted what I was saying about the brew method and sperged out?

Not a slur. Also atypo away from Anglo. Apologies for reading chinkbabble as English.
>Look, I don't know all your anglo coffee words.

Thats standard bartender shit worldwide. High pours aerate and mix.

You misinterpreted Malaysian and Singaporean Chinese for ethpanyol and sperged out?

No he's right about the slur thing, there are no slurs for white people because nothing you call us actually upsets us.
>>
>>21961433
What about Jew?
>>
>>21961431
There's clearly a long string of English with a random (untranslated) Singaporean term in the middle of it, then a much smaller string of Singaporean terms(that are translated). Use some common sense. The brewing method is from early 1800s Costa Rica, well before they were a developing country.

The only thing that will sate my rage is shitty coffee in a french press poured through a v60 filter.
>>
>>21961444
>Use some common sense.
Exactly. Use some common sense. Why would a dirt-farming Costa Rican be speaking Malay?
>>
>>21961467
Why is an english fluent sinkie be posting random Malay words on an English website? Why aren't you posting in full Malay?
>>
>>21961470
>Why aren't you posting in full Malay?
Likely because he thinks that since you're clearly not intelligent enough to keep track of who said what that you'd also not be intelligent enough to be multilingual. Probably why he translated the Malay parts.
>Why is an english fluent sinkie be posting
I don't be knowing why he be doing speak things nyamean bixnood nyukkuh.
>>
>>21961504
Or you post English on English speaking websites because you want to communicate with others who speak English? The Australian Abbos manage to do it.
>>
>>21961305
My Costa Rican buddy kept what looked like a shit-stained gym sock hanging in his kitchen. Wish I had a photo. Poop sock coffee. I think his had a wire loop embedded at the opening, with a handle.

Pretty traditional. We're literally talking about a torn tshirt sewn onto a bent hanger with a twig to hold onto. Hario makes at least one. Woodneck or Nel Dripper.

Cowboy/Church coffee. It's just French Press, without the press.

Cowboy coffee is boiled with the water. Steeped coffee is only steeped in hot water.

Hey guys I'm relatively new to making pour over. Judging from this pic, how am I doing?

I'm following the following recipe:
>1:15
>Bloom once with double the weight of the coffee grounds in water
>The pour is in a spiral pattern moving outward
>Wait 30 secs
>Bloom again with same quantity
>Wait other 30 secs
>Pour in spiral again in 100g increments
>Wait 10 secs after every one of those
>Repeat until reaching target
>Grab vessel and swirl gently
>Remove filter paper once the water is below the coffee grounds to prevent overextraction (not so sure about this one)

The grind is somewhere between fine and mid. It's about 45 clicks on my Kingrinder P1.
