I bought a pour over jar, grinder, filter paper and a goose neck kettle.
Are there any specific types of coffee to use with this or other equipment that could add to it? Thinking of a french press.

>>22119711

>>22119718
start with medium roast.

>>22119843
noooooooooooooooooooooo you're supposed to pound brown legumes into dust and then put them into the mudwater9000 with 10 micron v60 filter paper and precisely measure the temperature of your water to 66 degrees celsius before forcing it through the grounds using 12 bars of nitrogen gas

>>22119718
as long as you have a decent grinder you can use any type of coffee and get good results. but make sure youre buying decent quality coffee, preferably roasted in the last month. and make sure you're using the actual chemex filters.

the main issue is if the water temp drops while I'm pouring it takes like 5+ seconds to register its out of temp before it starts heating it up again. which is a significant lag when you're doing a pour every 30 seconds or whatever.

>>22120285
>the main issue is if the water temp drops while I'm pouring it
thats normal
if a recipe says 93c then thats your starting temp
it doesnt need to be 93c for every pour.

>>22120291
okay that is reassuring. and maybe that's why I'm getting some burnt tastes sometimes, since I'm making sure every pour is heated all the way...

You can use the cheapest medium pre-ground from the supermarket, store what's left in the freezer in a bag (unless you want to go full retard with an airscape or something like it).
The flavours get smoothed down so much it's not worth using anything expensive or even using fresh beans.
The only thing that ruins cold brew is burnt flavours or being too weak.

what chemical do companies use for coffee flavors in candy or ice cream? they all taste the same so i assume there's something common about them. i can't find anything when i research for it. instant coffee doesn't taste like it to me

picked up a cheeky blend. natty process eth' and 'osta rican with some anaerobic 'lombian.

thoughts on grocery store beans? i was walking through this 'organic' grocery store and they had a decent variety of beans, ranging between $5-$15 per pound.

>>22121676
are you talking prepacked or bulk? if bulk, avoid. they go stale quick in the bins and usually dont have a marked roast date so they could have sat there for months. for prepacked stuff, anything with a marked roast date within 4 weeks is going to be decent. there is a good chance your local roasters sell to grocery stores in the area so check out some of those.

>>22121731
Yeah bulk. Guess the lack of roasted date makes sense.

nothing wrong with trying some out just to see, though. and depending on your brew method it might not matter that much. if you're doing pourovers it could be good to buy some cheaper beans just to get the hang of the method and see how changing things affects the taste in the cup.
there's some "how to choose coffee" stuff in the pastebin if you wanna learn more.

coffee time

I was talking about moving away from my Flair and Chestnut C2 last thread. I finally went and bought an Eureka Mignon Manuale and a Lelit Anna because I managed to find both for pretty good prices, they should both arrive in a month. Funny, because I was talking about getting a DF54 and a Gaggia Classic instead. Anyway, is there anything else I need to keep in mind in order to keep my machine from killing itself other than backflushing once a month and descaling once a year?

>>22122052
>Lelit Anna
check the panels and fittings when you unbox it

>>22122061
Is it more fragile than other machines or is it a Lelit QC thing? I bought it through WholeLatteLove so it should have 1yr warranty in case it comes all fucked up and loose.

>>22122070
its QC and they often can pop out of place during shipping

>>22122081
Got it. I'll make sure to let /ctg/ know about it when it arrives. For now I'll keep on manually grinding like a schmuck and cleaning my Flair daily.

>>22122052
>>22122095
I sold an anon here my Kinu M47 phoenix to replace his Mignon Manuale. He is very happy. I'd also avoid 57mm Lelit like the plague. I really hope its not too late to cancel either.

>>22122156
I can still cancel since I placed the order yesterday. Doubt they're gonna ship it until Monday. Do explain, though, what's the problem with 57mm? If it's about the accessories then I don't really mind it. Normcore has 57mm tampers and baskets and that's enough for me, I don't want to buy a fuckton of fancy puck prep gadgets.

>>22122173
You're going from one proprietary basket to another proprietary basket(with a few more options). Who knows when normcore will decide noone is buying 57mm shit because its only on Lelit's cheapo line. I truly think gaggia+df54/64 is a way smarter upgrade route.
>t. anon who went from kinu+flair signature to wug 80mm and flair 58

>>22122183
If it counts for anything, IMS also has 57mm baskets. I'm also gonna buy the accessories as soon as the machine is here and I know it works, anyway, and I doubt I'll be buying more after that. Honestly I really did consider the Gaggia, but I cannot for the life of me understand why a $500 machine doesn't come with a manometer or any form of temperature control (I'm aware of Gaggimate and Gaggiuino, and I do have some experience with electronics, but I honestly don't want to fuck around inside a machine when I've never owned one before). Those were really the main reasons why I went with the Anna, that and because it's on sale. I do understand not wanting to go proprietary, though. Why the fuck they couldn't have just made it an extra milimeter wider is beyond me. Locking your customers in is an obvious reason to go proprietary but modularity and compatibility are big selling points these days.

And for the Mignon over the DF54? Honestly I just did it because the DF grinders are kinda ugly. That, and I like the idea of not losing my grind setting after every cleanup.

>>22122183
Oh, yeah, and I did consider the Flair 58 at some point. I still like pulling manual and I'll probably keep using my Classic from time to time, specially when travelling. But I also want to throw an espresso machine on a smart plug, wake up to a hot boiler and make a cappuccino without fucking around with a frother or external boiler, so there was no getting around owning a proper machine.

>>22122203
My flair 58 preorder came with an unbranded IMS. Its the first thing I replaced with a pullman 876, then a high flow billet basket after, then stepdown and convex baskets. They all make very different coffee and its handy to have options.
>Why the fuck they couldn't have just made it an extra milimeter wider is beyond me.
They can. It's called the Glenda. They charge a few hundred extra for it. Fuck em. I'd be furious with that shit on my counter for years.
>And for the Mignon over the DF?
Burrs burrs burrs. Eureka make shitty italian burrs. Could be perfect for your caps though. All preference, but again 50mm proprietary with access to the same shitty replacements. Not what I'd be buying.
>>22122213
>But I also want to throw an espresso machine on a smart plug, wake up to a hot boiler and make a cappuccino without fucking around with a frother or external boiler
Literally what I do. $20 switchbot on the flair58 controller flips it on 10 minutes before I wake up. Turn on kettle, take piss/shit, pour milk into Dreo Baristamaker, pull shot. Cappuccino 3 minutes later without having to fuck with a steam wand.

>>22122220
>Glenda
Haven't heard of that one before but shit, you're right, it's just a 58mm Anna. Doesn't seem to have the same availability as the Anna, though.
>Eureka make shitty italian burrs. Could be perfect for your caps though.
That was part of my considerations. I'm not a fan of char roast but I barely drink anything lighter than medium these days. I think shitty italian burrs sound like a good match for my shitty italian-style 'presso. That, and I've survived off a C2 for years. My standards aren't that high at this point, if it's stepless then it's good enough for me. I've gotten pretty good at dialing by weight because with some beans the C2 gets into that situation where a click finer chokes the Flair and a click coarser makes soup (Slop or underextracted piss). That said, I didn't even want to go with Eureka OR the DF at first because I keep hearing that conical is the way to go for dark and full bodied. Unfortunately, the Fellow Opus 2 is too plasticky and the Timemore Brick is apparently not that good. Could've gone with Baratza, but I went with flat burrs in the end just to try something new (And because an anon last thread swore that Baratza is e-waste).

Also fair enough on your morning routine, doesn't sound too different from what I'm trying to do. Piss and shit should come after coffee, though, that's non negotiable.

We have intelligent posters? I thought all we did was shitpost. Then again, I don't come here that often. Also I'm exaggerating on anon being a reason why I didn't buy a Baratza btw. Like I said, I wanted to try flat burrs for a change and couldn't get over the looks of the DF.

>>22122280
Huh, didn't even know aftermarket grind plates were a thing. I'm ready to move on from manual grinding, though, the C2 will remain my backup/travel grinder. If I'm unsatisfied with the Mignon then I'll just go with the DF or whatever new chinky grinder hits the market.

Because you don't need high temps or pressures to extract tea. If we could just steep coffee in 80°C water for a minute like we can with tea, we would. That's also why teafags usually spend their money on nice cups and pots while coffeefags spend money on brewing equipment instead.

i was wondering how this taiwanese tea place by me brews tea so quickly with "foam" even though they dont use any milk. i guess they must be doing this. it's really good.

>>22124176

>mom we have to go to the coffee shop my friends online said i need to try espresso

your moka pot lil bro?

>>22124577
you havent even had a cappucino or a latte? if you've never had any espresso, dont just order a shot. for one it will probably be bad since coffee shops suck, and two it will be unsatisfying. buy an espresso based drink like the aforementioned, or an americano. alternatively, if you're a little flower boy, go to a gelato place and get affogato

>>22125006
i don't think i've had any espresso-based ones, just the regular milk coffee in the paper sippy cups. i don't mind if the shot tastes bad tastes bad, i just want to learn what the texture is like

>>22124548
>steep
you only steep poor quality tea

>>22124982
yeah i just made one, how did you know?

>>22125104
explain how you brew good quality tea without any steep at all

>>22125160
just pour water through it
the best teas have the least amount of water immersion time
trash tea needs to steep because it has so little flavour that it needs to soak in the water and have as much extraction as possible

>>22125189
Just say you don't know what you're talking about and move on.

>>22125241

the science experiment is done

>>22125329
You are the science experiment bro wtf

>>22125329
how is it?

>>22125365
not very good. it's the one with black tea in it. maybe cold tea only tastes good when it's sweet like iced tea

>>22125320
gonna deep27 some báimǔdān in your honour later

i put a lot of sugar into it and some benzaldehyde and now it tastes exactly like saskatoon berries. maybe the experiment was partially successful. next experiment soon once i find the reagents i need

>>22125375

>>22125395
please keep me updated

>>22125413
my hypothesis is that i can create caramel coffee by dutch processing my light roast and then deaminating some glutamine and making glycation products with glucose at a high ph. i've tried it before with some darker roasts but it ended up tasting like biscoff cookies. the light roast should give a different flavor

>>22125375
update: tastes nice, sweet and sort of a light grain taste
a starchy and smooth mouth feel
kind of reminds me of a light rice milk
fit about 9g in it
could do more if ground up but im not really interested in that
colour is a super light goldish yellow
i dont often have tea but this is a nice little break to have and watch the sunset
id recommend it
:)

this guy isn't posting in the tea heneral because anime

The Mignon is fine. Their regular espresso burrs are good at making traditional shots. And the 50mm brew burr is very unimodal according to the Coffee Chronicler. What you need to do though is to remove the declumper in the exit chute as it causes a large amount of retention. Adding a tilt stand and bellows to that would make it more or less zero retention.
Also I've always wondered if adding a little lithium grease to the end of the bottom of the motor axle that contacts the grind adjustment arm lever might reduce friction and wear at that point a bit.

>>22125582
I'm starting to wonder if that Mignon is even gonna arrive desu. I bought it through Amazon a week before the Lelit Anna. The Anna has shipped, the Mignon hasn't. Oh well, at least Mr.Bezos still hasn't charged me.

I suspect Eureka Peppe is basically the same grinder in a different housing so that could be an option if it doesn't arrive. It comes with the brew burrs but the espresso burrs are only $30 or so.

They're called biscotti, ma'am.

Singular biscottus.

i swear we've had this discussion before

>>22127157

New to moka pot, how do I tell if I'm using the correct grind size and when should I adjust it?

My local online retailer is amazon, and they fuck up so much they end up donating to me because they deliver the order next door into an apartment block instead of my unit, and I get refunds by reporting the box stolen as compensation for making me walk next door and grab it before anyone steals it.

>>22127250
if the grounds don't stay in place then it's too fine.

>>22127250
Same as any way of making coffee; if it's bitter, grind coarser; if it's sour, grind finer; if it's sweet, don't adjust.

Went to a different store than my usual yesterday.
They only had these two and another Kenyan for filter, usually I prefer non-Kenyans. Had the Ethiopian this morning and it was pretty good
