Hello, hoping to take the next step in the coffee rabbit hole by purchasing a new coffee grinder for French press, moka pot, and espresso (planing on buying machine in the future). However, I’m having a difficult time understanding what retailer to purchase the df64...

1zpresso hand grinder – maintenance (oiling?)
Hi all Is there any need to oil/protect the burrs (and body) of the grinder? I never use water and just a brush to clean the disassembled grinder every month, but wondered whether the lifetime of the grinder/burr set is affected by a failure to oil/protect the...
Aeropress tasting less extracted at finer grind settings? Is there a "hump" in extraction?
I'll try to keep this as brief as possible but there are a lot of variables at play. Nova is my usual daily driver and I've been trying to get more sweetness from it. I figured maybe I was unknowingly over-extracting, so I upped the dose from 60 to 70g/l and...
Anyone ever taken a coffee/barista class?
I've been doing pour overs for the past year and I still can't get the consistency I want. I think I'm at the point where I'd like to take a class, in person, to really fine tune my technique. Anyone know of any good ones or have taken one...
Getting 3 minutes draw down time with my v60
I’m using 15 grams of light-medium roast coffee, 18 clicks for the grind setting on a timemore c2. After it’s done drawing down there’s a layer of fine coffee on top of the coarser grounds. What am I doing wrong? submitted by /u/uldis951 [link] ...
What is the consensus on how long beans/grounds can go before noticeable staling?
Please be merciful I am still learning Are those bags that fold over and have that metal wire on the top any good for longer than a couple of weeks of storage? What about metal or plastic canisters with the plastic lid? What are the top jars or storage recommendations...
Is this really worth the price of 4$

Where to buy Nanyang or Singapore style beans in the US?
I had Nanyang-style coffee in Singapore recently and now I want to make it in the US. I understand that the beans are Robusta and roasted with butter/margarine and sugar. I can't find these beans in the US. Any pointers? submitted by /u/jk2432...
Visiting Puerto Rico
Hi, I am visiting Puerto Rico in a few weeks. My trip is primarily a birdwatching trip but I am wondering if there are any must-visit local coffee roasteries/farm to cup, and/or coffee farms that I might be able to visit during my time there. I always like to bring...
Dialing In New Beans
Doing pour overs at home. Assuming I keep all variables as close to constant as possible, I’m curious how I might effectively and efficiently dial in a new bag of beans, ones I’ve never worked with before. The one variable I’m assuming I would adjust for is grind...
Breville Barista Pro- no flow for second shot, but first shot pulls great
Having some issues after having the machine for a week. The first 2 days while testing and dialing in, I was able to pull shot after shot. The last few days, first shot pulls and when I go to make a second, it barely drips out. The puck is pretty dry. I then just run...
is espresso really that strong?
Ok so I've got diagnosed ADHD and stimulants like coffee work opposite for me. Instead of energizing me it calms me,hell I've fallen asleep from it before. The problem is a lot of my friends keep telling me I'm drinking way too much espresso. I drink...
Cold brewing in a nitrogen environment?
I make cold brew often and like it quite a bit. I also have a kegerator so if I wanted I could brew up a large tank of cold brew and then dispense it with nitrogen to get nitro cold brew. So I was thinking, cold brew gets a bad wrap for tasting "stale"...
why do yall prefer an americano or black coffee over the other
at home I make Americanos because I like coffee cold and it's easier to pour the small volume of espresso over ice add cold water and go from there but for the hot coffee drinkers if you were to go to a coffee shop why would you order an americano over black...
Weird taste from new DF64?
We just got a new DF64 and have been grinding a high quality medium roast. The resulting coffee taste quite awful with a very bad and long lasting after taste. This bad flavor is neither sour nor bitter; it’s not a flavor I’ve ever tasted in any coffee before. I...
any coffee professionals out there?
I love scrolling on this sub!! So active with lovely discussions and strong opinions. I know there is r/barista, but I’m curious about the makeup of this sub. How many of you are or have been coffee professionals? How many are just enthusiasts? Love both groups, just...

Has anyone ever disassembled a Bonavita?
My beloved Bonavita BV1900TS kept shutting off in the middle of brew cycles. I did my regular 50/50 vinegar/distilled water regimen to remove mineral deposits, but it didn't solve the problem. I'm not one to give up on a piece of equipment I'm fond of,...
Beans taste worse after the first day.
Does it happen often to you guys also when a bag tastes absolutely delicious on the first day and immediately the next day it drops in quality and I can never get the same level of taste. submitted by /u/arejay00 [link] [comments]
1ZPresso JX-Pro vs X-Pro
Hello, I can't find any detailed comparisons of these two grinders. X-Pro seems to be a newer model that uses different burrs (while the JX and JX-Pro have the same burrs) - promotional material says "The new heptagonal burr produces consistent grounds and...

Hello all, I’m need a new grinder because my off brand cheap electric grinder I use for my coffee machine broke and I’m in need of a major upgrade. I’m trying to take my coffee game to the next level generally, and am getting a Gaggia classic pro to try to venture...
Do you eat anything while drinking your coffee?
I normally never eat anything when I’m drinking black coffee as it drastically changes the taste for me, makes it almost undrinkable. Any tips to improve this or is there nothing I can do? Just now I grabbed some walnuts as I thought it wouldn’t change the taste by...
At my in-laws and forgot my v60 filters so I decided to MacGyver up a remedy. Hoffman Frenchpress technique and a makeshift foil strainer. Coffee had not right tasting as good as it did.
