Some advocates using a set number of stir/folding grinds into bloom water whereas I do it rather vigorously, a bit like excavating the blooming grounds and getting to the bottom the filter

Does anything think that would clog the filter, as I don't seem to find that to be the...

Reasonably priced at about $50USD including shipping. Elegant design IMO, and the cup having a lid is a nice touch. Seems to make a lot of sense with his coffee and pouring techniques. (I'll skip linking his YT videos.) I am waffling on pledging - I have sooo much time and...

I couldn't pass up the chance to pick up this Stagg XF from a fellow HB'er right here in the city and I'm glad I did.

I bought it with the plans of taking it into work to use as the filter for my Ratio 8 in the office. The tall, narrower vertical column seemed ideal for the...

Yesterday and today I tried to test the effectiveness of blooming during my morning french press regimen. Yesterday's coffee was made without doing any bloom. I just poured the entire 300 grams of water into the 23 grams of coffee all at once and let it brew for 4 minutes. This...

For those few of you who use a Moccamaster with the aftermarket showerhead from ArtisanSmith, I've designed a basket cover to help combat the brew water temperature loss I've observed with it. For reference, I have an older KBT 741 with the circular-bottom manual brew basket....

I have been using the medium-sized Karlsbad device made by Walkuere for many years now. For the most part, it is not only my favorite drip device but also the only one that I will touch. I love the rich extraction the cake filter above the porcelain grid gives, situation the...

Need some advice on using new 2 cup Brikka Moka pot.
Following the instructions, but not seeing coffee starting to flow after a couple of minutes into upper compartment, but rather an explosion of coffee into it after 3 minutes with steam, coughing, and bubbling simultaneously,...

Hello,

My favourite alternative brew method is Ibrik. I grew up with Greek Coffee, which is what we called it at home. Lately I have been digging deeper, read a lot of great threads on this forum, trying different types of beans.

By using fresher, better beans, the results...

Hello,
I was wondering if all you could give me some suggestions about Pocket coffee densitometers. There are some in Amazon like: PAL-COFFEE (BX / TDS) From import JPN; but for me seems to be very expensive. Any suggestions?

THANKS

Haven't seen this discussed here - the method is still under development, but the idea is to emphasis the sweetness in coffee:

- coffee roasted as an omni-roast
- 1:12 brew ratio
- 25g ground very fine(!) 5 on an EK
- 95C/96C water (203F/205F)
- 300g water poured in 15...
