I still don't know how to make good cuppa' coffee with a moka pot. I read hours about different methods, tried everything, from the amount of coffee, to grinding my own fresh coffee (tried coarse and fine ground), different extracting speeds, nothing helped. Then one day, after having used one for a few months already, I stopped lying to myself and finally admitted that it tastes like SHIT. Are these things a meme pushed by wannabe Italians?

I found that the first water step, with adding only just enough to wet the grinds, resulted in a significant improvement in flavor

Coffee is an agricultural product that can greatly vary in taste and quality. Roasters often have to substitute the coffee beans in blends as the quality of the available crops change. Sometimes they do it flawlessly, sometimes not. The bigger the roasters' businesses become, the more difficult it is to replicate a blend because there just isn't enough coffee in the world. Roasting a little bit darker hides the taste of lesser beans by replacing it with roasty flavors. Anyway, how do you not have space for a hand grinder? They're small.

Yes but my days would be worse, and not because of the caffeine.
I don't eat breakfast because of my diet, so I substitute it with a drink to reduce hunger pangs until I'm in my eating window. I usually use coffee for this because I love the taste, but I can use water or tea as well with no repercussions. It's just personal preference. My caffeine tolerance is extremely high so I can have a doppio after dinner and still sleep just fine, and I feel no adverse effects from going days or weeks without coffee.

There's a phenomenon called baked beans where the coffee gains the flavor of toasted bread if the roaster takes too long at the end. That sounds like what you described and it's on the skill of the roaster.

Drinking a Costa Rican La Minita Tarrazu from a different local roaster out of the Clever Dripper. 65g/L with 350ml, ground to a 26.5 in the JX-Pro, steeped for 2 minutes with boiling water, quick swirl, 30 second rest, and the draw down.

The grounds had a nice and sweet, nutty aroma to them that reminded me of Honey Nut Cheerios, as well as a sort of sweet and savory hoisin sauce thing that I felt was really nice.

The brew comes out smelling much closer to that first honey nut tasting note with maybe some brown sugar in there.

Taste is very nutty with less sweetness to it than the scent but still present. No hint of sourness at all and the acidity is quite low as well. Definitely a brew containing more bassy notes than high notes. Some of the savory elements are still there but they take a back seat to the honey almond taste.

Overall, it feels really well balanced and easy to drink.

Tasting Notes:

Apricot, Berry, Red Wine, Sweet
The whole bean and dry fragrance are very fruity. A very nice Natural Brazil.

Farm Info:

Ariovaldo Bonfim’s farm, Fortaleza, is located in the city of Patrocínio, Minas Gerais, in the Cerrado Mineiro growing region of Brazil. Born and raised in the state of Paraná, he and his family relocated here in 1987 seeking better climate conditions for coffee production. The relocation came with its own challenges though, proving that a lack of skilled labor and machinery resources still made farming difficult. It wasn’t until commercializing their process that they were able to increase their production levels and eventually expand their crop.

Within Cerrado there are many microregions that present unique characteristics in the cup. The Chapadão de Ferro microregion, where Ariovaldo’s farm can be found, is a small town with farms situated around the cone of a partially formed volcano. Farms here are at higher elevations above 1100 meters and coffee is harvested a month or two later than in other parts of Cerrado Mineiro.

Ricardo’s father began in the roasted coffee industry, delivering products to meet the demands of Brazil’s domestic coffee consumption. After returning from the rolling hills of coffee trees, Ricardo decided not to continue his career as an economist and, instead, dedicated himself entirely to the purchase and sale of coffee beans in the interior of Minas Gerais.

It was always Ricardo’s dream to own and operate coffee farms, and, years after beginning work in coffee, he acquired Fazenda Primavera, which is the ultimate fulfillment of that goal. The 980 hectares planted with coffee are not just a farm but a property he and his team have built into a regional exemplar of the possibility of specialty coffee production in Brazil, transforming it from its origins in traditional coffee production by Portuguese families who arrived in the late 70’s, when coffee production in the region began.

Fazenda Primavera is located in the municipality of Angelândia, Minas Gerais, a region at the transition between biomes, with land and vegetation characteristic of both the Atlantic forest and the Cerrado. The farm’s elevations, between 1000 to 1050 meters above sea level, promote the cultivation of specialty coffee and the climate also provides favorable conditions with average temperatures between 20 and 24 °C annually and precipitation of 1,000 to 1,300 mm.

Fazenda Primavera has state of the art installations including a 24,000 m2 drying patio, 14 electric dryers, and equipment for processing Natural, Pulped Natural, Honey, and fully Washed coffees. The farm cultivates predominately Red and Yellow Catuai and has been adding new varieties, from Topazio to Geisha. Pulped Natural Geisha from Primavera won first place at the 2018 Cup of Excellence!

French Press and Aeropress have very little in common, mostly it's just the name.
>French needs to be very coarse, aero medium-fine
>French takes 4 minutes to brew, vs aero's 2
>French relies on infusion brewing, that is coffee just sitting in the water, whereas aero requires plenty of agitating - stirring and actually pressing
>the "press" in the french press is just to separate the grinds from the brewed coffee, in the aero it's actually part of the brewing process
>french uses a metal filter, aero uses paper filter
>Frenchpress brewed coffee has a stronger body/mouthfeel, aero has more predominant flavour (why so many specialtyfags like it so much)
I've had both, like both, and the Aero has been my daily driver along with espresso.

My suggestion is to try and fix the other one. It's not total rocket science to fix espresso machines, and since it doesn't work, it won't hurt to dick around with it, right? You'll probably learn something in the process.

About the job... set yourself up for getting a better position in your current place, or continue searching for challenging employment somewhere else. Don't sell yourself short when you do apply. Don't be too humble, or else you'll end up being regarded/treated/employed like you are now, just elsewhere. Find ways to round out your experience at your current place of work to hopefully bring more to the table somewhere else.

Keep looking.

>French needs to be very coarse, aero medium-fine

Yes. Because one uses a fine paper filter and the other uses relatively coarse steel mesh.

>>the "press" in the french press is just to separate the grinds from the brewed coffee, in the aero it's actually part of the brewing process

Thats not how you french press, and the "pressing" in an AP doesn't generate enough pressure to affect the brew.

>How many bars of pressure can you achieve in the AeroPress?

>The AeroPress filter is 2.5 inches in diameter so the area of the filter is 4.9 square inches. If you press down firmly on a scale, it is relatively easy to get the scale up to 25 pounds and then if you press hard on the scale, you can certainly get it up to 50 pounds. Therefore if you press similarly hard on your AeroPress while brewing coffee, the firm pressing will be at 5.1 psi (25 lbs/4.9 sq in) and the harder pressing will be at 10.2 psi (50 lbs/4.9 sq in). Since a bar of pressure is 14.7 psi, the former is .35 bar and the latter is .70 bar. We have done taste comparisons between minimal and maximum pressure on an AeroPress and our taste buds can’t tell the difference.

If you stick a piece of v60 filter to the mesh of a french press, it is functionally identical to an aeropress, but can still be used to froth milk.

>it works twice as fast

Because you can grind finer due to the paper filter... What don't you understand?

Try getting lighter roasted beans. They have a more complex flavor that's more pleasant to drink black, and french press is a pretty forgiving method of brewing. If you don't like what you're brewing, cream and sugar away.

So I just drank a cup of coffee that had been sitting out since 1pm yesterday. It had some milk in it. It was left in a room that gets pretty cold due to poor insulation. I impulsively drank the cup because I hate being wasteful, and I figured it was being “refrigerated” in the cold room so it was basically like iced coffee. I realize this was probably a retarded thing to do since it had milk in it. It was probably only 7 oz of coffee, with only 2-3oz being the milk.

If they were any good you should have froze them back in 2014. I'm not saying lbing out vacc bags and freezing my excess isn't excessive, but it literally costs me pennies and has no downside. Little bit of freezer space utilized and a $10 roll of amazon vac bag. Not continually exposing them to oxygen is already a massive benefit. I'll post the prices for the next lot when I place the next order. Ethiopia gedeb and two brasilians I posted earlier. Lmk if you think they're a fair price.

So what grinder(manual/electric) can i get on a 300€ budget that can do pourover and espresso with flair. Or is the niche worth it?

[Anonymous No.15555276]

>>15555224
C40 with the Red Clix adapter, Kinu M47, or the 1ZPresso JX Pro. The Niche was worth the asking price last year - if you're in the EU, the import/customs fees add on ~€145. So now it may not be worth it, depends on your perspective.

[Anonymous No.15555294]

>>15555224
Kinu M47 or Commandante. The Niche is well worth it if you are willing to spend the extra money, but you will get similar performance from those two manuals I listed, the advantage of the Niche mainly being convenience and ease of use. I would say that if you intend to go further into espresso then the Niche will be the better investment in the long run since grinding for espresso with a hand grinder can be tedious. If you mainly drink pourover and just intend to stick to the flair, a hand grinder is fine.

[Anonymous No.15555611]

>>15555276
Is the 1Zpresso JX pro actually good? Like is it on the same level as the C40 and M47? It seems to be relatively new and I haven't heard as much about it as those two. Also what is the difference between the K pro and the JX pro?

What the puck did you just say about me you cunt? I'll have you know I learned about the dreamtime from Aunt Telma and I've been involved in lotsa diffrunt break and enters on houses owned by cunts like you, cos I'm aboriginal and I can take your pucking stuff. I've got over 300 DVD players.

I'm trained at throwing spears at kangaroos and I'm the top boomerang thrower in the Woongacoonganooga tribe. You are nothin' to me but just another white cunt to ask for small change. I will come up to you and invade your personal space with a smell the likes of which hasn't been seen on earth for 40,000 years, mark my pucking words.

You think you can get away with saying that pucking shit to me over the internet? Think again, pucker. As we speak I am contacting my nephew Moreton who is stealing someone's iPhone so I can trace your IP so you better prepare for a storm of VB cans, cunt. The cans that wipe out that pathetic little thing you call your life. You're pucking dead, cunt. I can be anywhere, any time and I can kill you and take your non-colour-dyed metho, puck your dog and take your thongs.

Not only am I extensively trained in glassing pucking cunts, but I have access to boomerangs, spears and dat pucking thing we swing around to make loud noises, which will bring the entire population of the Woongacoonganooga tribe to your lawn and wipe your miserable cunt arse off the face of my continent. If you could only know what pucking retribu.... retribut... retributi... .... revenge your smart-arsed comment was gonn' bring, you'd have held your pucking tongue.

But you didn't, you couldn't, you're giving me two pucking dollars you pucking idiot. I will vomit Coolabah and port over you and you will drown in it.

You're pucking dead, cunt.

Cheap grinder for small amounts?

[Anonymous No.15555651]

Yes it is, and yes, these grinders are all very similar. Burr size differs between them. JX Pro is better for espresso.

[Anonymous No.15555671]

How do I know that I'm not getting memed here? I have been burned by bad grinders in the past and I'm not sure whether to get the JX pro or the C40.

Look on Youtube. The JX Pro has bigger burrs, which will help for espresso. The C40 is great too.

Can't speak for the other recommendations but I've had a good experience grinding for espresso with the Kinu M47 Phoenix. They were a bit hard to find last year when I got one but I'm sure the stock situation is better now.

Well in that case i guess there's no harm, I've never actually tried it but I've been put off by what I've heard, because it's boiled and so finely ground it overextracts, then a lot of the time it is drunk with lots of sugar added to make it palatable
