LF grinder suggestions

Probably the 1000th grinder suggestion post but here goes: 20 years of service from my Krupps GVX2 and it’s finally kicked the bucket. I’m looking for a decent replacement. I’m kind of between a Baratza Encore and a Baratza Sette 270. I currently use a 1zpresso JX Pro...

Grinder Reccomendations (revisited)

I had posted this last night, but it was deleted for not being substantial. I had also accidentally posted just the picture before that and thought I deleted the post, but it was still there and my substantial post is not. I'm thinking it was the other post with...

French press

Is it bad to use a French press if I already struggle with gastritis and reflux? My husband just casually told me my worsening symptoms could be from my recent (4 weeks or so) change from a classic drip to French press. Thoughts? submitted by ...

What happened to African coffees?

Who else remembers 2012 Ethiopians being Blueberry bombs, or Kenyans having Grapefruit acidity? I feel like in recent years coffee from Ethiopia has been super delicate, floral, which is also enjoyable, but some days I am craving the fruit bomb of a washed Ethiopia...

Kasuya’s new Hario Switch recipe

I saw this on his Instagram and took a look. It was pretty interesting to me how he lowered the temperature of the water quite a bit in the steeping phase. I gave it a try just now, and I felt like mine was a just little too watered down. I used the same ratio as him...

Trick for iced coffee in the morning?

I make my iced coffee in the morning using a 3-cup moka pot, the trouble is it's inconvenient and cuts into my time in the morning. I have to stick the coffee in the freezer to cool down as rapidly as possible, which takes around 30 mins. I'm not willing to...

Single dose, travel cold brew espressos

I had a thought yesterday about my morning coffee fix when I’m undertaking multi day adventures (cycling & running). The disciplines require a super lightweight set up, and will be in remote places so camping equipment to brew a coffee isn’t ideal. I was thinking...

Make your own half caff?

Yes. Sacrilege. I know. However, I’ve been experimenting and I find that reducing the caffeine makes a huge difference in my overall energy levels. Tend to use aero press vs almost anything else. Anyone else experiment with this. 41/m/US submitted by ...

Brewing small amounts of coffee

I've been searching around for guidance on this but haven't found much. I'm quite sensitive to caffeine so tend to only use 6g of coffee beans with around 100g of water in my v60 each morning. It tends to work fine, but all recipes I've come across...
