I think I finally found the specific setting on my grinder that gives me a pourover where everything sticks to the filter in a cone and isn't so heavy it falls to the bottom of it, got good results 2+ days in a row now regardless of how careless I am on the pouring.

also unrelated but I finally got a Mate gourd and bombilla and this is a new type of rather bitter energizing drink. Interesting but not sure I'm ready to have it replace a morning coffee.

“I drink one to two litres of coffee per day,” said Christina Veira, part-owner of Bar Mordecai. “It is essential. It gives me joy. I wouldn’t stop drinking it unless the harm was truly and immediately devastating. I’ve reached the age where I’m willing to gamble with my mortality, mostly because the idea of living in the absence of pleasure sounds exhausting.”

i only drink iced coffee, right now i've been using my pourover and then adding ice. but this is kind of messy and annoying. I am looking at cold brew, and I saw one where you put in 10 oz. grounds and 40 oz. water. how much coffee will this actually get me? it says to fill your cup about 1/3 with that concentrate, and then add cold water, ice, anything else as needed. I know for cold brew you want there to be a lot more grounds per unit water, hence this maker does 1:4, whereas pourover it's more like 1:16 which is what I do now.

yeah thats about right. do NOT drink cold brew straight, you gotta dilute. if you brew it weaker you dont get all the goods out because you don't have the assistance of heat in the brew process.

i have one of the zoji cold brewers and it works awesome and i cut it 50/50 at least

cool thanks. because i'm a moron i want to check, the one i'm looking at will give me 50 oz. of concentrate. if I fill my coffee container with 1/3 of this, that will give me about 150 oz. of coffee?

just curious, how long do you let it "brew" before drinking, and about what percentage of the concentrate do you use in your container (edit: sounds like 1/2?)? I use a bit of half/half, other than that it would just be cold water and ice

[ASK] me about OS/2 Warp
Yeah that's dead on. Do the bulk of the diluting with cold water/ice, add cream to taste. Since you don't have a hot cup, if you like sweetener make a bit of simple syrup or something. you'll be stirring sugar for days otherwise

i usually make mine in the evening and let it go 18-24h. no less than 12, but it can go longer it'll just go a smidge stronger then.

decaf's 100% fine. beans is beans. you can still use $175 of bullshit gadgets to brew it, so it's yospos approved

I do hope James Hoffamann is still working on that decaf video he promised. Both because itll be interesting to see how its done and also im sure itll spirn a lot of interest in better decaf after.
