Hello out there, fellow caffeinated Lemmings!
Got anything new in your brew?
Did you make a mess-o of your espresso?
Did you French pull instead of French press?
Tell us about it for those valuable Internet points!
The same cheap dark roast from LIDL that I always drink
Got the aeropress about a month ago and have not used anything since. Freaking love the results and how easy going it is! Next on the list is a new grinder, but unsure to go handgrinder or electrical.
Been using local coffee, labelled as French Roasted Coffee, it’s pretty nice.
Opened a Single Origin Costa Rica from whole foods. 26 Grind on Encore ESP, did both aeropress and V60. It’s a nice light roast, but nothing amazing.
Heating up around here so I’m onto to cold brew. Basically a fine mesh strainer cup in a jar that I let sit overnight. 40 grams lasts 2 days.
Give it a good shake when I make it. Roughly 18 hours steep then it’s good to go the next day, nice and cold out of the fridge.
If I’m fasting I have it with just an ice block, but if I’m not ill have it with oat milk in a tall glass, maybe 80 coffee, 20 oat milk. good shit!
Espresso using some older beans. Tastes alright. Made using a Z1presso grinder (145 grind setting), and a 9barista stove top espresso machine :)
Also recently bought a shaker for N2 cartridges to make nitro-brew at home. Really good when it gets hot outside.
I just opened a bag of washed light roast Arabica Typica from Dalat, Veitnam. Used a V60 to brew it and a Fellow Opus to grind it.
Quite nice. Floral and fruity not bitterness or excess sourness. Very happy considering the relatively low cost.
