Blind shaker better than WDT??

Unfortunately, the blog curiously/coincidentally has a lead up to effectively saying that the Autocomb is better without saying that it's better. I get that they posed a question at the end for the curious, but still... I'm not saying that it's wrong, but it's a bit of a WAH-WAH moment and ends up r...

The Meticulous Home Espresso Machine (Kickstarter)

What makes you think that after production and shipment that the Meticulous won't have some sort of setback? Producing thousands of machines and having them in different locations used by different users is different than making a machine and using it yourself. I've received a fair number of kicksta...

[FOUND] Odyssey Argos

I'm looking for an Odyssey Argos. I'd prefer with spring and the type of spring doesn't matter much although I'd prefer the 6 bar spring. Looking to pay no more than 1000USD considering the option of certain accessories. No longer looking

Intelligentsia Roasting lighter than TW, DAK, Manhattan (CONFIRMED)

Manic had the Sublunar Black Cat variant and I got a couple bags. It is really delicious. Like, pretty spot on for my preferences of chocolately/nutty without the roasty flavours that can appear with these blends. I can't compare it to Classic or Analog at this point since the last time I had either...

The hunt for best Italian roasted coffee beans

All opinions noted and I certainly didn't mean to intend that roasting skill proficiency doesn't need to be high because these coffees may never truly be described as memorable experiences necessarily - with the caveat that you've spent several years trying all kinds of different coffees prepared ma...

The hunt for best Italian roasted coffee beans

I find this to be a really interesting sentiment with respect to Italian imported coffee like the Lavazza's we're talking about. I haven't met anyone that is looking for these coffees to be some kind of memorable experience. Maybe there are, but I don't know of anyone. You can prefer one over anothe...

Blind shaker better than WDT??

I don't have a blind shaker. I use a dosing cup. I do notice that the coffee begins to bead much more evenly then I've ever been able to get it with my new process informed by what I saw in Lance's video. Funny enough, what he suggested would be an alternative to not having a blind

New wave of baskets with med-dark roasts

I wonder if my experience seems to differ because I use a Flair 58 and use 6bar pulls with declining pressure. I never do 9 bar anymore
