I'm glad you enjoyed it! If you are looking for a suggestion, I have the Fellow Clara. It's a bit pricey, but it has been absolutely awesome.

I honestly just love Fellow products, I have yet to be disappointed by anything they've made. To be fair though, I know many have been dissatisfied with their Carter line of travel mugs, as many have gotten a roasted garlic smell in the mug that they can't get rid of. But I've currently got 4 of them, and haven't experienced it once.

I'm just more curious than anything, but why do you have the boiler set for 4 degrees above boiling?

That's a beautiful looking machine, I can see why you'd want to get that! I still don't know which machine I'm going to get, thought I think I want to start with something like the flair 58 and maybe a nanofoamer.

Chemex is still one of my favorites. You first enjoy a meal or drink with your eyes, and the Chemex is easily my most beautiful piece of coffee hardware. I just love the classic look of it.

Yeah, I watched this video recently and it has me leaning towards the Varia Aku.

I would highly recommend taking a peak at James Hoffmann's method. I feel it has been the most efficient method in removing that sludge at the bottom of the cup.

Definitely a bit jealous.

I haven't quite gotten into espresso, but when I do I think I will go entirely manual to start. I already have a JX Pro, which should be serviceable to grind espresso. Then I'm thinking of getting the Flair. I need a smaller scale to fit the flair, so I was considering the Lunar, but it sure is pricey.

I love the precision down to that 0.3 lol

Absolutely wonderful setup you have there. What scale do you use when pulling your shot, and what is your final output?

Sometimes the simplest is the most delicious.

Sounds like anaerobic fermentation! I have had some seriously funky and delicious beans that went through that process. I even saw one that did the same, but introduced peaches into the fermentation to attempt to impart some of that flavor as well.

I made a post around a week ago that really took off, and figured we are probably going to see a small spike in activity due to the reddit migration, so I thought we could give it another go!

There are always tons of posts about what beans you are brewing, but my question is HOW are you brewing those beans this week? Sticking to the tried and true v60? Pick up a new Orea and still figuring out the best recipe for it? Pulling some particularly sweet shots on your latest beans haul? Let us know below! What's your brew method of the day/week?

Free speech is speech that is protected from government regulation or persecution. This is a private platform, and therefore Nazis and their speech can fuck right off.

So yeah, they are absolutely to spew their hateful speech without legal repercussions, but we absolutely do not have to let them do so here.

So, this looks like the start of a relatively new community (at least for me), and we surely have some new people coming over from the coffee subreddit, so let's get some conversation going!

What's your current favorite brew method? I've been really getting into my flat bottom brew lately, with the Stagg XF. I just feel it's been a bit more forgiving than my v60, and it's been pulling out some pretty solid tasting notes in my latest beans.

What're y'all brewing with?

EDIT: I absolutely love the traction this post got! And I love seeing all the methods everyone is using daily. Thank you all

 

Hey all, I'm just looking for some solid story driven games on Xbox gamepass, that are equally fun to play. I had been recommended the Mass Effect series, and while I believe the story will be great, the first game is an absolute slog to get through right now.

What are some good story games that are equally entertaining in the actual gameplay that are currently on gamepass?

Heck, even just games with solid gameplay will do, if the story is serviceable.
