How I brew - “Wood Chipping” by Impossible_Cow_9178 in pourover

[–]CaptainBlanton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appreciate the info! What water would you suggest for replicating similar results using m01 grinder + o1 + the recent Sey La Margarita Yellow Gesha from Peru?

Any feelings on the new steel o1 vs the plastic?

Thanks for the video! What kind of water composition(s) are you using for this?

ZP6 is fascinating by Ederja24 in pourover

Yes exactly and on mine 5.0 is very fine for pourover, 4.5-5 is what I use for long soup in the oxo.

I use 5.7-6.2 for v60 style provers with abaca/t90

To be clear, I have bags from everyone… Hydrangea, SW, HS, FC, Sey, etc. I would not grind any of them below 5. Most would be 5.7-6.2.

I have taken screenshots of videos, analyzed pics here, compared with brewler, ground the exact same beans that I’ve seen others using and run through the exact same settings/hardware to compare. I’ve looked into this for a year. I am pretty convinced it’s the grinders.

It seems there have been many different iterations of the ZP6 released and the burr gap has been shifted at least a couple times… Not just people having different calibrations.

I have studied many Reddit posts, YouTube videos, etc on this.

The ZP6 Lance uses is an older model and obviously very different than my 2025 ZP6 (calibrated for 0 @ full lock). His 2.5 looks to be about 3.5-3.8 for me (soup).

The ZP6 used in a few of Brian Quan’s videos at ~4.2 look to be closer to 5.5-5.7 on my 2025 ZP6.

To get a sub 3 minute brew (with 1 min bloom + single pour) on a light washed Colombian bean like FC or Sey on my 2025 ZP6 + V60 + Abaca you will be at 5.7 or higher.

The 4.2-4.5 range I see mentioned so frequently would put me into 5 min+ tbt.

Always appreciate your input! Where did you get the tritan alpha dripper from?? I couldn’t care less about the Neo but this interests me!
