Blind shaker better than WDT??

I've changed my mine on the topic, I was trying to shake with hand covering on magic tumbler that I got with the HG1 Prime. That doesn't really work lol.

Blueberry (or any berry) bomb coffee recommendations?

Making it V60 than in HyperChiller before pouring over ice I'm liking it, def not a berry bomb but am getting a juicy berry-ness and fairly mellow like no real bright acidity. Chilled like that it's delicious. Can't quite dial it on espresso yet, was getting that same nice juiciness but seems super ...

Blueberry (or any berry) bomb coffee recommendations?

Ordered 2lbs of the Ethiopian Dumerso so.......lets see. . Got it mainly to make V...

SUGAR, how dare you ??
