minimum dose size?

Jan 31, 2024 |

I use the Hario switch to brew my coffee and am trying to reduce my caffeine consumption. Hence I would like to brew smaller cups of coffee. I am currently using 10g of coffee with 160g of water. (1:16 Ratio) I am wondering if there is a minimum amount of coffee...

How is Peak Water holding up in 2023 ? – UK

Hi there I used to have a peak jug and it worked reasonable well because I got tired off lugging litters of water from the shops.

I moved to a soft water area (2KH ish so technically too soft but the coffee is tasty still) and now back to hard water area ~ 200-240 mg or so of chalk

Just wondering if it's still worth buying from Peak, I see people recommend using Zero and add minerals (/ just tap?) back in but I think either filters will have shorter life span due to the level of hardness here

On a side note, is Volvic still one of the better bottled water out there, I looked at the label and nothing has changed since I checked but perhaps there is a even better brand out there

Thanks
