What would river water coffee taste like

>>21391298
Beaver waste.

>>21391298
ASS

>>21391298
river + coffee

how long should i let my beans rest for? is a week ok?

>>21391392
depends on the roast and how you brew them

>>21391298
depends on the river.

>>21391405
light roast, for pour over

>>21391452
2-3 weeks

>>21391432
Brahmaputra.

>>21391534
That sounds indian, so I'm guessing shit flavour.

>>21391432
Yarlung Zangbo.

>>21391539
Sounds Chinese, so I'm guessing industrial waste.

>>21391432
Volga.

>>21391541
Sounds Russian, so I'm guessing vodka waste product.

>>21391432
Dnieper.

>>21391543
Sounds Russian, so I'm guessing vodka waste product.

>>21391432
Danube.

>>21391551
Sounds French, so I'm guessing wine waste product.

>>21391432
Rhine.

>>21391559
Sounds Italian, so I'm guessing olive oil waste product.

>>21391298
Depends on the mineral content of the water, both in terms of minerals increasing coffee solubility and things like calcium imparting their own taste.
Well and of course any waste products/impurities in the water.

>>21391432
Potomac.

>>21391564
sounds Indian (feather), so I'm guessing Listerine

>>21391432
Styx

>>21391603
Sounds Balkan, so I'm guessing genocidal mass grave run-off.

>>21391642
Half right

>>21391432
Yukon.

>>21391665
Sounds irish, so I'm guessing whiskey run-off.

>>21391670
You're terrible at guessing the geographic location of rivers

>>21391679
Yokon = potato and potato = irish, how is that wrong?

>>21391432

>>21391714
Apologies.

My beans are supposed to rest for one more day but I woke them up early.

>>21391294 (OP)
What are the most expensive beans you've ever bought?

>>21391769
Wow that's almost more expensive than Geisha
I'm kinda cheap, the most expensive coffee I've bought regularly is ~65 dollars for 2 lbs, I bought a $25 for 10oz coffee from some random roaster back in 2024

this one is really good.

>>21391769
>What are the most expensive beans you've ever bought?
Sidra washed that was $40 for 12oz. Very good.

goddamn, jimmy!

>>21391808
Mediocre Coffee Storage.

>>21391782
What's your favorites from B&W?
I'm guessing you mainly do v60

>>21391828
>What's your favorites from B&W?
pepe jijon - sidra washed
and this one...
the future - pina colada is pretty good too
>I'm guessing you mainly do v60
yep.

>>21391769
technically I got some beans on redemption for buying my machine.

>>21391831
I've been messing around with their naturals and I've been really impressed. Any funkier beans you've tried from them that you think would work well as espresso?

>>21391840
Nah probably wouldn't mess with them in an espresso... they're very hard to dial in as is.

>>21391769
>200 bucks per kg
What the fuck? That seems unreasonable, even [spoiler]vtumor[/spoiler] coffee is cheaper.
Maybe my value expectation is just off, I don't think I've ever spend over 20$ per kg on green beans.

>>21391869
Its a meme origin. Kona is expensive partially because of the relative cost of american labor. Kona and Blue Mountain are expensive on top of that since Japan like to spend a shitload of money on bland coffee.
>20$ per kg on green beans
That's probably not too far off their cost. The Darnall Kona was like $35/b green.

>>21391869
>What the fuck? That seems unreasonable,
still cheaper than starbucks.

>>21391883
>relative cost of american labor
I mean that is reasonable and to be expected but
>Japan like to spend a shitload of money on bland coffee.
Is something I'll never comprehend.

>>21391893
Fair but it's not like starbucks is for people that like coffee

>>21391925
>>Japan like to spend a shitload of money on bland coffee.
>Is something I'll never comprehend.
Japs have weird tastes if you haven't figured that out already.

>>21391928
Their popular beers are shitty too

>>21391928
>>21391931
>nips have shit taste
Huh didn't actually expect that but I only ever tasted their whisky and that was fine.

>>21391941
Isn't Jap whisky just expensive 'scotch, Japan'

>>21391769
I bought nespresso pods for the machine at the office. Real coffee tastes better,

>>21391945
>Isn't Jap whisky just expensive 'scotch, Japan'
Kinda, it's the same style as scotch.
Ine can argue that the specific flavors can differ but scotch is such a broad category that you can have vastly different ones too.
Nip whisky didn't used to be that expensive until it got tons of attention in the early 2010s I think? Afterwards it went nuts.
Point being their whisky is comparable to scotch so I'd expect them to have decent tastes.

Bought some slightly cheaper beans because I want to use them in a machine I have access to. Brewed some with my V60 and the coffee still turned out pretty nicely, but a bit too dark for my taste

>>21391972
Define real coffee

are steel moka pots less grimy than aluminum ones?

>>21391998
Straight from the bean with no fruity nonsense.

>>21392007
Aluminum will corrode easily.

>>21392007
Both steel and aluminum are prone to getting layers on them. You can soak it in hot water with a denture cleaner for a few minutes and it cleans right out. Or you can buy cafiza (goated)

can anyone recommend a french press
100% plastic free if possible the ones ive bought are all mostly plastic free except some tiny piece that holds the press part together that inevitably breaks

>>21392017
Whats the fruity nonsense?

>>21392034
https://weberworkshops.com/products/bird

>>21392034
I think the ones made by Frieling are completely stainless steel. I could be wrong, I don't own one.

>>21392044
This reminds me of that cast iron pan

>>21391808
>This is some good fucking tea

>>21392040
>Whats the fruity nonsense?
Like all the co-fermented stuff.

>>21392068
>I say, Jimmy. Quite good tea innit?

>>21392090
>I don't want my cherry seeds tasting like fruit

>>21391298
no two river coffees are the same
for it is not the same river
nor the same beans

>>21392019
nope

Bros it's fine to leave the black o-ring on the k6 right I can't be fucked to get it off

>>21392425
What o-ring? The silicone sock it's got? Or something else?

>>21392460
Oh, that. I leave the big ring on so that the cover holds onto the grinder more, but I took the smaller ring off.
Also if the aforementioned silicone sock starts slipping, take it off.

>>21392463
The white ring for the handle? How do you keep the handle in kek

I'm not enjoying my coffee lately. Not sure what's going on. I'm wondering if my normal stuff is being processed differently or if it was a change in the milk I normally buy. I was making my coffee like usual and with the same splash of milk as always but it just didn't taste right. Maybe too lightly roasted, or perhaps it was something with the milk because it tasted too milky. I tried adding less milk but it still tasted off and too milky. It's been two weeks now without a satisfying cup.

I purchased some creamer in place of milk (which I rarely do) and it's am improvement but not 100%. I don't think it's covid as I haven't experienced any taste differences otherwise. It's not a huge problem in the grand scheme of things but it's annoying and a little disappointing. I might try drinking more tea or relying on caffeine gummies for a little bit and try again with coffee some time in the future and hopefully my palate will be accommodating. Just complaining to complain I guess.

>>21392784
Take a few weeks off from coffee

>>21392786
lol

>>21392784
Stop putting milk in it

>>21392786
Yeah that's the plan

>>21392794
I've always liked it with milk and sugar. I've brought down how much milk I add to it over the years (I used to like it very milky) but I just can't quite get to drinking it dark. I think I could stomach it with a light roast but at the moment I don't feel compelled to experiment. I'm hoping a break will reset my palate.

>>21391536
So just regular coffee then yeah

>>21391294 (OP)
carfags and gunfags are always competing for top spot for being the biggest faggots until I see pics like this, then it's coffeeniggers by far. at the very least gun and car faggots dont just randomly bring it up. you usually have to enter a conversation about cars or guns for them to sperg out about it.

>>21392871
Yeah this is kinda bullshit. The only thing I care about is how good can my coffee taste, which for me is fresh beans and a pour over specified to my tastes.

>>21392908
'Collecting gear' simply is not a hobby, in any field. Same as audiophiles or oil princes with 200 cars that just sit.

>>21393018
>'Collecting gear' simply is not a hobby,
why not?

>>21392871
what is that coffee ball 10 seconds in lol

>>21393022
probably some 'cold shock' that the solution must pass over. Inversely, people at my work would heat their empty mugs in the microwave so the ambient temperature mug would not 'shock' the coffee as it came from the machine. Pure onanism.

>>21393022
Knockoff of one of these. Immediately chilling the steaming espresso "traps" flavor that you would lose to air. Yeah it works, its just not going to make shitty espresso any better.

>>21393025
another one from an old boomer, who loved freeze-dried tasters choice, would be to mix the milk in with the granules first so the hot water wouldn't burn them.

>>21391432
Nile.

>>21393031
Sounds German, so I'm guessing automotive industry run-off.

>>21393030
>freeze-dried tasters choice

>>21391294 (OP)
is that a PS3?

>>21393030
I must admit when I was buying instant sachets I would do this, but mostly because it felt like it made it mix better.

>>21393037
yes

thanks for reading my blog

>>21391294 (OP)

Weird crackpipe

>>21392090
i mean your coffee gets treated in some way before you get it no matter what your buy. the fermentation thing is just down to how you get from cherries to beans,

>buy 250g bag of beans
>use 15g per cup
>end up with only enough beans for 2/3 cup
yup its bean mixing time

Makin coffee

>>21393362

>>21393228
it's better than cold brew

iced kinopress. its good.

>>21393245
noob

>>21392731
You just learn how to apply the pressure to make sure it doesn't fall out. Hell I've even had the knob on the handle fall off and I can still use it to grind if I use the right technique, although that issue is significantly more annoying to be fair

>drink coffee on empty stomach
>get caffeine anxiety

>switch from tap water back to distilled water + third wave water
>espresso tastes significantly better
Anybody ever used TWW's 'Espresso Machine Profile'? I've always used their 'Light Roast Profile' since I'm usually doing naturals and/or light roasts.

Can I grind preground in my k6?

>>21393581
you mean re-grind?

>>21393581
Yes, but why?

>>21393590
double cutting unlocks more flavor

>>21393581
>Can I grind preground in my k6?
no,.it says in the instructions it will wreck the gears

Makin more coffee

Should I make a THIRD coffee?

>>21393585
Grinding packaged coffee to be finer
>>21393590
Got some preground as a gift, want to use it in my moka pot but its coarser than what I'd usually use

What about the switch ones? They look like better aeropress.

>>21394392
>Suiren, need it or keep it?
chicks like it, if thats something you care about.

>>21394392
Its like a v60 but worse.
>switch ones
They're great. Other hybrid drippers(april/pulsar/z1/sworks) cost way more.

>>21392020
meant to reply to this yesterday but better late than never
cafiza "isnt advised" for use on aluminum
dunno if it will ruin it but i wouldnt take my chances
it is great for cleaning literally every other piece of kit i own though

>>21394490
ah. Good thing I use steel.

What are your favorite coffee varieties?
So far mine are sidra and gesha.

What's the general consensus around James Hoffman around here?

>>21395172
we dont call it hoffee for nothing.

>>21395171
hot sauce, slow cook bbq, IPA and funko-pop fags got nothing on this lot.

I get a lot of compliments from other baristas when they taste my brew.

had a delish aeropress using 85c and 1min brew time on a light roast

my dealer just pulled up and i scored these bad boys for $20

>bitch hr recruiter women refuse to give me a dead end job position for summer

He's an entertainer. The face of a youtube company who doesn't write his own scripts anymore.

just reheated my coffee after i drank half and put it in the fridge for 12 hours
what do i think of it?

>>21395504
Meh. I just pour my coffee into a thermos (after letting it cool for 20 or so minutes) because I slow sip it all day at perfect temp.

>>21395506
i drank half then realized i was tired so i just went to bed and saved the rest for when i woke up(now)

>>21395511
coffee makes me sleepy too

there's a coffee thread on /g/ if you want to educate some people

>>21396460
Why in the fuck would I want to do that?

>>21396460
coffee is not technology.

>>21396460
No there isn't.

>>21395506
>The sock
At this point might as well brew Folgers.

>>21395516
If coffee makes you sleepy, then you're either dehydrated or have an electrolyte imbalance. That's why they add electrolytes and taurine to energy drinks. I never hear energy drink drinkers saying they feel sleepy after a can of Monster.

>>21396587
You wouldn't brew Watermelon Jolly-Rancher sidra through a partially cleaned sock?

>>21396592
>Jolly-Rancher sidra

>>21396589
>I never hear energy drink drinkers saying they feel sleepy after a can of Monster.
i used to drink 2 monster zero ultra and then fall asleep.
some people naturally have high caffeine tolerance
but it also depends on the state of your body/digestive system at the time you ingest coffee/caffeine.

>>21396595
Agreed. If you're a fat fuck that does nothing your body is going to take ages to digest and sort shit out. You'd likely fall into a food coma, then get woken up by the caffeine kicking in halfway through said coma and say, "I have high tolerance"

t.former fatfuck™

>>21396602
are you denying that people have higher or lower natural genetic tolerance to caffeine?

>>21396616
Nope. But I don't believe people who say they have a high dose before sleeping and sleep just fine. I seriously believe people who say that without lying have serious health issues, or consume an ungodly amount throughout the day and have built that tolerance.

>>21396621
>everyone does x and if they say they dont they are lying
ok bro.

>>21396587
>The sock
It's quite good.

New goff.

It needs some days to finish degassing (I froze it after less than a week).

>>21397043
Even at this stage, the dark chocolate is ridiculous, it’s like drinking a 90% chocolate tablet. Swiss anon would like this.

The acidity is still generic, I brew at 92ºC, the sultanas is there too in the aftertaste. It’s similar to the previous Peruvian one but less fruity and more chokky.

>>21397043
Does Italy actually have good roasters for third wave coffees?
tangential blog:
I'm torn on Nicaragua; I went there in high school and it's sad how destitute everyone is despite the country being just as beautiful as its southern neighbor Costa Rica. But at the same time, their government are anti-American commie-lite assholes. I hope that the Cuban/Nicaraguan/Venezuelan regimes collapse in the near future, they're beautiful countries and it makes me sad seeing people live like that.

>>21397108
There are some famous third wave roasters such as Nero Scuro, Ditta Artigianale, Bugan Coffee lab (they also have competition coffees), Garage coffee bros, Hub Coffee lab, his majesty the coffee and some more.

The key is to see if the website has the English language or better it loads straight in English as default language rather than Italian.

Caffelab is specialty but not properly third wave, it also has classic Italian blends and espresso single origins, it’s good but not as good as the above mentioned for filter coffee.

Nero Scuro roasts the lightest overall.

>>21397032
Now THAT Is a dirty sock.

>>21397511
What brewer do you want as your first?

Test

>>21397546
very light roast.

>>21397546
french roast?

>>21397556
Anaerobic natty Brazilian microlot. More developed than I like but it's not for me.
>>21397571
Got some sitting on the bar. Oldest is may 21 so it'll be a while.

>>21397576
Very consistent results. What machine are you using?

>>21397597
Started out as a popper* from sweet Maria's. But once you rip out and replace the fan, heater, controller and wire in some pids and thermocouples it's not really a popper* anymore. Guy wanted them a little darker so the rest are getting a nice gentle ride up to the start of second crack. He's happy now.

>>21397576

seeing as there are no other alternatives
This is the only filter brewer you can buy if you are european and white, literally a monopoly on a market

>>21397656
Get a syphon.

>>21397674
people will think I'm cooking meth or smoking crack

>>21397725
then you might as well cook a little meth while you're at it.

>>21397725
If your houseguests think you're making meth that's a problem with your relationships, not the brewer.

from a health perspective, is there any major difference between making your own black coffee vs just buying Maxwell or something and drinking it black?

im considering buying a grinder and brewer but I care more about long term health rather than taste

>>21397998
Probably not.

>>21397998
I would imagine there's some benefit, at least psychological, to waking up and drinking something that tastes good rather than something that tastes bad.

i have made coffee
went 2 clicks finer
its good
i didnt really want to make espresso(i was going to eventually but i have more important shit before i get to that)
but then i bought this cup because it just looked so good/cute.
and now every time i take out my loveramics 360ml twisted glass(black) i see sitting behind it the 70ml twisted glass(green)
and i just think about how good espresso would look in it and how cute it would look sitting on my table
and now i want to buy an espresso machine
but know i gotta wait till at least end of next year.
:(
i guess i could sip moka out of it but i doubt its the same experience...

>>21397998
No mold in specialty coffee

I'm getting an espresso machine without a steam wand and I'm trying to figure out my best option for milk frothing. Is pic related plus a minute in the microwave a viable option? Or am I better off with something like the Aeroccino 4 or Nanofoamer Pro?

>>21398428
Just get a dreo. Shits on nf pro 2 and aeroccino. They've also got a cheaper baristamaker air.
https://www.dreo.com/products/baristamaker-milk-frother

>>21398470
Seems pretty ideal. Will investigate. Ease of cleaning is my only real concern with any of the heated frothers though

>>21398491
I backed it on kickstarter. Had it since october. Its great. Super easy to clean. Pour, rinse, and run it for a cycle with some soapy water and you're 99% clean. There's just a touch of protein(I use local whole milk) on the bottom that'll need to be sponged out but its not really burnt on yet. Only gripe is I wish the min fill was smaller. Not really a cortado machine. Also comes with a normal whisk attachment like the little handheld whizzers. I've used it to mix up whey, supergreens, mix and heat matcha, whip up a quick simple syrup etc.

>>21398563
I think it'd be perfect for me if it weren't fuck off big. The aeroccino and nf pro are objectively worse products, but I really do like how small they are.

A hand held frother and microwaved milk is an even easier process to store and clean too, I just wonder how comparable the actual milk is to a dedicated heated frother.

>>21398580
I'd bitch about the size if it didn't work so well. I've been waiting for something like it for years. Only thing "better" on the horizon is the Meticulous Milk but that'll be hundred more for an actual standalone countertop wand.

In 7.5 hours it will be coffee time

>>21398470
Why another heat-and-spin machine instead of something like a Flair Wizard?

>>21398659
Same :)

>>21398719
7.5 hours from now or from when you sent your reply.

>>21398696
Flair wizard wasn't out at the time(and is just an overpriced bellman). Also my coffee bar is in my office so no stove. Dreo works great with a Flair 58 and kettle.

What's the best place to get some of these classic, extra thick espresso cups? I found two Italian made ones at my local flee market and I'm very happy with them, but I'd like to have some extra to serve guests.
I don't think I've ever seen a thick-walled espresso cup sold at a store, they're all very slim, regardless of the price. Even on amazon I could only find medium thickness. I like to drink my espresso in small sips, I need cups that I can effectively pre-heat.

Look for a restaurant supply store - issue is they might only sell them in big cases that you don't need.

what cups do you use for filter coffee? espresso cups too small, tea cups too big, water cups ok but ugly

>>21399191
An assortment of cheap, standardized cylindrical mugs I have gotten for free from various companies trying to advertise.

>>21399193
those seem to big for the quantity of coffee i usually pour, though it's nice you don't have to worry about spills with a half empty cup

Neat experience. Nice little mouthblown crystal tasting glass. Or my Torch Little Glass for something bigger and more durable.

They're called gibraltar glasses. Libbey makes them here but they only sell them in bulk for restaurants. They come in various sizes.

Rinse, pull out the little magnetic spinner, rinse that, and wipe the (large and convenient) pitcher out with a sponge. ~1 min. Or be lazy and just run another cycle with soapy water. If you don't let milk foam sit and dry you're not really going to have to scrub it. Their heating program is pretty spot on. Minimal scalding.
>>21399048
Notneutral Vero line is great. Heavy commercial glassware. Great shape, color options and big wide facets to hold onto.

>Their heating program is pretty spot on. Minimal scalding.
I have been using my Aeroccino to heat up non-coffee drinks lately while I wait for my microwave to get fixed. Would it be good for this sort of application? Is the base where the magnetic spinner connects sealed like it is in the aeroccino, so that the liquid could never touch the inner machinery?

>>21399374
Yep. It's just a mini (induction?) milk kettle. The magnetic spinner doesn't actually connect to the 'base'. It sits on a post in the pitcher. Pitcher and base are completely separate.

>>21399388
Thanks for the recommendation; it's coming Saturday. I don't have an espresso machine but I'm sure I can make something enjoyable with my Aeropress.

I remembered that this brand existed. It's like a knock-off Libbey, but you can buy them in a set of 6 (instead of 36) and they're cheap.

Little more shilling to tip the scales. My notneutral cortado glass weighs 350g. You could probably crack open an entire coffee shop of skulls and it'll be fine. You drop it on tile it might just bounce and break the tile. Expensive, but you can buy singles instead of a case.

>>21399048
I'm very confused why all the links you got recommended are for glassware. Maybe I haven't had enough coffee today, but I think you want something like https://shop.mokaconsorten.com/Extra-dickwandige-9-mm-kleine-Espresso-Tasse-Sorrento-weiss-Nuova-Point-62-ml or https://shop.mokaconsorten.com/Moka-Consorten-Editon-Besonders-dickwandige-10-mm-Espresso-Tasse-Bar-Italia-XS-weiss-56-ml

Those aren't thick enough imo

how to fix V60 recipe coming out too acid for a specific coffee bean? just grind finer?

I have a comandante c40, would it be worth it swapping to a ZP6 since I only drink pour-over? Or would the change be minimal?

>>21399568
Water chemistry.
>>21399585
Different isn't always better. But it might be. Only money will tell.

>>21399340
Any Europoor solutions for this?
The glasses are beautiful so the 20$ pricetag doesn't bother me, but 50$ shipping for an item the size of a golfball is obscene.

>>21399769
Gotchu. Netherlands, spain, sweden. If they don't have what you want shoot them an email and see if they can't get it on their next shipment. I really wish the amethyst ones were out when I bought mine. They're perfect.

had a SICK 4 hours sleep
now, coffee time.

u guys wait for your frozen beans to get to room temp before grinding or nah

>>21399348
1:16.6

>>21399834
Single doses no. Entire bags yes. Pull them out the night before so condensation doesn't fuck them.

>>21399834
Should be fine. There might be some condensation, but most people spritz their beans with water intentionally these days anyway.
Do one shot each with frozen and unfrozen beans and report back.

Are there any commercially available manual grinders with very large burrs/handles similar to pic related? I'm very autistic about cables and outlets, I currently use a Flair Pro + Commandante red clix, but grinding for more than two people is always a hassle.

The 1000 folded nippon machine ojiisan is using is probably a vintage piece that makes atrocious coffee, but you get what I mean.

>>21399866
>very large burrs/handles
hows this
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FL65i1XhVec
this is basically as big as you can get in modern grinders

>>21399873
>$1650
Probably a fair price all things considered, but a little out of my range. Maybe I can find a used one.

Looking at getting a bean to cup machine, below 600ish. For everyday use either at my work or at home I will decide where I want it based on size.

If you could choose between

Delonghi Magnufica Evo
Gaggia Prestige
Philips 5400

>>21399911
Check out the Craig Lyn hg1 prime. Weber workshops used to be Lyn Weber. Same burrs. There'll be an aussieanon around later to tell you all about it.

i would have linked the hg1p but the handle(flywheel mostly) is not as large.

That big flywheel is very sexy. The HG-1 looks like a science experiment, a little too sterile for me. The HG-2 looks like she belongs in the kitchen.

>>21399977
Yeah. So do me a favor and take a good thread starter.

>>21399985
i agree, i would have bought it if i had an extra 900 dollarydoos at the time.

lmao that's some quality banter
If they had put a realistic price they'd have sold out for sure. A bripe and a Japanese millstone grinder, do you need more?

>>21399568
What's your grind size? I went finer and finer with no results so I had to up the ratio. Dropped by 5 grams and now my cups are perfect.

I am concerned about coffee prices

>>21391432

coffee prices have not changed

Sounds like monkey, so I'm guessing that shit coffee that comes out the ass of monkey.

>>21392044
holy fuck that thing is over complicated. Probably makes a fine cup but darn dude. It would take like 10 minutes to clean the damn thing and re-assemble it.

>>21395172
If I am trying something new, or looking for equipment I will reference his channel. I watched his video on the Breville/Sage Precision Brewer before I bought one.

>>21397998
wtf are you talking about. Just drink water then you turbo spaz.

>>21399191
regular ass mugs. My favourite is from a national broadcaster. We got some from Zoo trips. Some from a book store. I think we have one somewhere with a picture of a horse on it.

>>21400779
rightly so.

new beans get stuck a lot on the grinder, what's the deal here? humidity? it's not hard to remove with a brush, but curious why so big difference between this and previous beans

>>21401140
different beans have different sizes and densities
density also depends on roast level
also some burr shapes/sizes have more or less trouble with certain bean sizes
but this also depends on rpm
and yes humidity

>>21399487

>>21400819
Supermarket coffee prices have doubled in most western countries, actually. Specialty coffee has only increased by about 20-30% I'd say, so it's not as notable if you buy good beans.

>>21401293
>Supermarket
WHO GIVES A FUCK

>>21399585
Unless you have barista championship judge level taste buds, it will probably be an incremental improvement at best, and you'll get higher variance in taste from every other part of your setup.
>>21399636
Depends, mostly on roast level and brew method. Hoffmeme has a video about it. Search for "coffee resting Hoffmann", can't be bothered to find it for your rn, sorry, but good luck and have fun!

>>21401299
Calm down, I'm just saying. How many cups have you had today?

Trying the big cup today. Usually my batches are bad when I make the big cup.

how much better is specialty coffee vs supermarket ground coffee? say a folgers or something is at 5/10, where would an Ethioian bean from a local roaster that you grind at home and make yourself rate? Im considering getting into coffee but i cant see myself becoming a hobbyist, im mostly just interested in making my daily black coffee taste better

>>21401499
>how much better is specialty coffee vs supermarket ground coffee?
infinitely
>where would an Ethioian bean from a local roaster that you grind at home and make yourself rate?
500/10

>>21401499
it's completely different because comercial coffees are very homogeneized and blended to avoid surprises to the buyer. it's not "bad", but it's very generic and roasted to remove any character

>>21401562
Nah it's bad. I'd rather not drink coffee than drink Folgers.

>>21401482
Stop making big cups.

>>21401499
Having switched to single origin coffees 5 years ago, I cannot go back to REALLY shitty coffee. That being said, I consider myself in the middle ground between being a hobbyist/snob and not. Now, I can appreciate when its good and bad, but I struggle to care enough to get really really into understanding processes, and growth altitudes, blah blah blah.

I just never knew how flavourless, soulless and burnt tasting crap coffee was until I had something decent. I typically buy whatever the cheapest single origin beans are from local roasters, I have never had geisha beans, and the most I have ever spent on coffee was $95USD / 5lb. (Unfortunately our typical beans just went from $66/5lbs to $80/5lbs)

If you want near-hobbyist level coffee with almost no effort, and you are used to Folgers made in your Walmart coffee maker get the following:
1. Nice beans, anything single origin that's cheap from a good roaster.
2. Burr Grinder - Baratza Encore (Buy used)
3. Breville Precision Brewer (Buy Used)
4. Kitchen Scale. (Brew 60g of coffee for every 1L, or a portion thereof)

It will change your coffee life, and all in, cost you about $200.

how shit is american bought grocery coffee compared to eu?
I mean even Lidl preground coffee is not bad
although I don't remember the last time I've had speciality coffee or have then need to go beyond normie brews
if you cap out your brewing method a store bought coffee is good enough for me
