With 240 v machines now available and brew accessories too, DE brew space could well be revisited in a devoted thread. A TomC expressed it in above thread, brew precision and espresso with temp and flow...
A little background on my entrance into coffee: for most of my life I didn't like coffee and my family didn't either, but I read online that as you grow older you start to like bitter things more. One day I decided to stop by this little mom/pop specialty coffee shop near my...
User Neil.Pryde on kaffee-netz.de called this one to my attention, and has a set of the SSP 98mm Brewing Burrs. Frank Durra at Titus quoted me 500-520 euros to the USA. Has anyone gotten to try these burrs? According to Neil.Pryde, These new brew burrs make the best cup for my...

My wife and I mostly drink pourovers at home, and in the mornings I use two single-serve pourovers to get us both cups (we like a solid 16oz mug full). Been wondering if a large Chemex might be a nice alternative - only need to brew one thing. Anyone here a big Chemex fan and...
