You gotta love James Hoffman! He takes the term coffee nerd to a higher level.Really great videos! I also felt somewhat good about myself when I saw that he liked my grinder...
Anybody still like perc'd coffee ?had a pot a buddy's house a few months back that was superb. Back when I started drinking coffee over 50 years ago that's how coffee was served for the majority of us.
Wow! Some serious roasting gear here... I see a lot of you guys have espresso machines well. What do you use? How do you use it?I'm mainly a pour over guy, sometimes use my moka pot with pretty good results. I do like a good espresso when out and about, but I kinda have to trust the person making it haha. A bad espresso is a sad experience, like when I've tried making it myself.... And grinders: I have a Vilfa svart that doesn't really grind espresso, but is really good, for the price, in the other ranges.Also, at this point, I'd like like to say that just like with hifi, I'm budget conscious (read poor) coffee lover.
Best 'drip makers' ? I'm getting recommendation on this brand as being one of if not the best..........https://technivorm.com/products/thermal/By no means inexpensive but those that have one swear buy it
The only secret is the temperature of the milk, too cold does not release the oils from the coffee, too hot burns the coffee.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_r5kpXPRYothis guy says different...Coffee is roasted at 200 celisus degrees plus? and you think boiling water is going to "burn' the coffee more? skip to the 1:20 mark.
Hey now, that Aeropress thing is made out of plastic. Nobody thinks putting hot water in there and letting it sit for a minute or two is a good thing, right? Whether it has BPA or not, that doesn't seem a purist method. We wouldn't drink our coffee out of a plastic travel mug, would we?
