I just recently accepted coffee into my life. Like I'm not even sure if I truly like it yet but I went and got myself a French press and will probably start down this rabbit hole. Reading about grinders and self roasting is scary. I just want something better than office garbage keurig. Feels like college and starting with natty and upgrading to craft brew

Picked up an unused Oxo cold brew system at goodwill for $10. Is it worth it to have a dedicated cold brew system or was my French press really good enough? Guess I should make a batch and compare really.

I'm looking for a replacement coffee brewing timer. I was using Intelligentsia's app which was perfect but I guess its no longer available in the app store. A simple timer that allows me to change the style of brew along with yield and does all the calculations is all I really crave

Got an Encore as a wedding gift. If I upgrade the burr would it even be possible to churn out a halfway decent cup of espresso if I went with a robot or the like?

So I have a robot and want the occasional milk drink. What's the most reasonable way to get some of that good good milk? Any particular frothers or steamers worth looking into?

I occasionally break out in hives and get real flush. It’s very inconvenient because it’s so inconsistent.

I keep buying coffee from dumb Facebook deals that make you pay $8 shipping and you get like 2lbs. I need help I can’t drink this much this fast

Legit question but is a 2 cup measuring cup not good enough?

James Hoffman French press and aeropress methods are tops.

Upgraded burr and stepless mod should get you decently far.

The market would probably also literally blow up trying to make something cheap that can withstand 8 bars of pressure of boiling water

I remember staying at an AirBnB in Paris and fumbling with their moka pot and it was absolutely the worst coffee I ever had. So of course bought one from a goodwill and never used it in hope of making it work.

That’s a very unfortunate color and shape at a glance

So the upgraded burr and the double step mod?

Oh nice. I still need to order from them.

Have you tried the multi step mod for dialing in the fiber end? You can get passable espresso but those fine adjustments are why it’s considered not a great pick for espresso. It could be the beans, freshness, whatever are just sitting between the two adjustments that it craves.

I have a robot and use a encore. It’s serviceable. You can also get the pressurized basket that gives for even more room for coarser grinds. Robot good and recommend as a means to get into quick and good espresso.

Is there no chance they'll just replace it at this point?

I love making cold brew but the shear amount of coffee required puts me off a bit unless I can find some super cheap beans. I wonder how that would compare.

Drink your normal cup and also pop a caffeine pill

Coffee Vac is a good value option that Hoffman liked

lightly longer preinfusion to soak the puck then ramp up? Sometimes I notice my extractions miraculously get better without any changing of variables so it's likely the age of the beans that is effecting it. Like said above though, if it tastes good I wouldn't worry super much about channeling unless you're getting bad cups. edit: Just saw that you do WDT so thats prob not it George H.W.

Is it his voice is actually getting used up or just different mics\editing that's creating the effect?

Honestly the upgraded burr is probably the way to go. Sure it’s nice having a fancy new machine but you’re absolutely going to get the best value just throwing in the new burrs.

Robot with the pressure gauge is also pretty important if you do go that route. You could absolutely be blowing past 9bar very easily

MetaJew posted:Robot update: Tried to go a little finer on the "fine" setting of my Vario W and choked the shot. Before diving into another grinder you can try getting the pressurized basket and seeing the difference. The other basket will allow for you to grind a bit coarser so you won't necessarily need an espresso level grinder

Spice jars are probably your best bet. You can get some fancy looking ones

Go to your local goodwill and get a new one that will almost assuredly be there
