I'm thinking of buying the manual flair espresso press as a gift. Seeing as this a gift, I want the gift to include everything needed to make the coffee (ie. no need to buy any extra parts or attachments). So, I'm wondering whether if I just order this off...

Oxo 8-cup vs Moccamaster for half pots
Just writing about my experience because I was wondering this when thinking about picking up a brewer myself. First off - my background. I have a Baratza Virtuoso grinder. I normally brew pourover manually with a V60 mostly, a Chemex, and rarely Kalita Wave. I brew at...
New to grinding and I seem to be burning the coffee.
I used to boil the kettle and wait around 30 seconds before pouring it on the coffee (purchased ground) in my French press. Now that I'm grinding right before making coffee, I've found the taste to be burnt. Do I need to leave the water to cool down more? I...
Is hand grinding meant to be this difficult?
I was using pre-ground coffee for a while until a friend gifted me his no-longer-used Timemore Chestnut G1. I'm really struggling with it, and it's not even for fine grinding, just your standard fine-medium Aeropress grind. It's really difficult to...
Monogram coffee: experiences with their "Exceptional" line
The question, as titled. Browsing the sub I realize this is a frequently recommended Canadian roaster and as such I'm intrigued by their BF offer, both in terms of a subscription and the heavy discounts on their Exception lineup. Before pulling the trigger, just...
Chemex Question
I've been wanting a Chemex for years, and I finally got one, but have a couple of questions that I can't seem to get good answers for from YouTube or other online sources. For reference, I've been using various other brewing devices (aeropress, French...
Self care is programming the coffee pot before bed.
I don't know why I haven't been doing this, but one night last week I had a few extra restless minutes, so I went ahead and prepped and programmed the coffee maker for the next morning. And let me tell you. Something seemingly small and insignificant really...

Automatic drip brew dialing in: Adjust heat first, or grind size?
Since I've started using my Breville Precision Brewer, I've been "tweaking" a lot to find the best parameters for each coffee I use. The two biggest variables are water temperature and grind size. For darker roasts, I start at a brew temp of 175 or...
Accidently brewed a 1:20 single cup of coffee and it was amazing.
Was brewing a 1:16 cup (15 grams, 240ml) and lost my trans of thought and hit 300-320ml by accident. I was tempted to throw my coffee away and start over, but since it was from an advent calendar I decided to taste this brew. Folks, it was great! It wasn't...
How do I know if my coffee is “bad” vs learning how to taste it?
I’ve been drinking coffee my whole life with sugar (and low quality), but after years I’ve decided to change that and lower the sugar little by little. Right now I can drink my black coffee with very little sugar, but as soon as I remove it all it’s super bitter and...

Diffuser screen clogging.
For those of you that use a screen, do you notice it clogging your extraction every 15 or so shots? Am I imagining things? I rinse it off after every use but I'm starting to think I need to Cafiza it every few days. More work than its worth? I do weigh everything...
1.5L gooseneck kettle?
Who knows where I can find a gooseneck kettle that holds at least 1.5 liters of water? I want to brew 40-50 ounces of pourover for guests at once with a 10-cup chemex, and my 1 liter kettle just won't do it. Thank you!! Edit: I'm okay with stovetop kettles...
Timemore C2 Max vs C3
I'm looking to upgrade from my Mr. Coffee electric "burr" grinder (don't judge) and am pretty sure I want to go with an entry level Timemore. I know the C3 was initially a big upgrade from the C2 with stainless steel burrs instead of ceramic and a...

Does anyone have favorite espresso tonic recipes? Especially curious how people keep it from foaming as much. Favorite drink outside of black coffee, want to get good at this too. Thanks! submitted by /u/The-Hand-of-Midas [link] [comments]
Nemox Lux grinder question
Hello, I bought a “new” Nemox Lux grinder from Amazon. It arrived used with the coffee grinds still in it. Now arguing with Amazon over it as the listing says new and from Amazon, but the invoice that arrivi ed with it says a third party company. My question is, is...

What’s a good non-flavored creamer?
I can't put milk in my coffee as I'm lactose intolerant, but I like to buy flavored coffees and am searching for a creamer I can add that won't have its own flavor to mess up the flavor of the coffees. Sorry if this is a weird question, I got a batch of...
Rechargeble Hario scale issues
I have the Hario rechargeable scale. The one with the metal top. They say its supposed to work 80 hours on a full charge. Since I got it, it never did. Used to work for like 2 weeks before needing a recharge. Using it once or twice a day. Now it only works for like 3...
Cocktail Atomizer for RDT works great!
A cocktail atomizer / vermouth spray / martini spray / whatever you want to call it is a great way to simplify the RDT method to reduce static with grinders. A spray or two on the beans, give them a quirk stir or swirl in the container before dumping into the grinder...
Kenyan coffee smells AMAZING but tastes slightly bad… help?
Hi all! I need a tad of help troubleshooting my brew. This has happened to me, both brewing over a Melitta Pour Over as well as Aeropress: Coffee is a Kenyan Dark Roast. Roaster is not particularly reputable, and a small red flag was the fact that it was labeled as...
1Zpresso J-Max with filter coffee?
Was planning on just getting the JX, but saw a good deal on the J Max. Seems it just has finer adjustments similar to the pro. But I am not sure. Any help or insight would be great. Thanks! submitted by /u/Larix-24 [link] [comments]
