Stain on df64 burrs

(Ab)using the Europiccola to pull coffee instead of espresso
That won't be possible, as I have deliberately chosen to get by without a freezer. In fact I have converted a chest freezer into a chest fridge, since that is running much more energy efficient than a regular fridge

Moka pot question about the amount of coffee in the filter basket

Today, only had 10g remaining of a light roast Colombian red bourbon so figured I'd brew it on the MP using Hoffman's technique with the paper filter. Poured in 160g water, and
