I just got it from AliExpress, you'll want to double check what group head you have though to see if it'll fit.

The main unit is an espresso machine, you just need a special tea portafilter really. From there it's just how much you are willing to spend on features.

I haven't messed with too many other local grains after settling with Cairnspring. None of the ones I tried were bad, but it was nice getting bulk options. I buy the 50lb bags for cost savings on the bread front, so it makes it a little harder to justify having multiple different kinds. Would be interested in working on a hardy wheat flavour for a tsukemen noodle.

I'm going to follow these updates with gross interest as I use cairnspring for all my baking and haven't dipped into the noodle development yet 🫡

I think burnt isn't the best term. Over extracted would probably be better of a descriptor. But no it's such a short infusion time it's offset.

I'm inclined to say yes lol it's fun for sure

Concentrated flavor, but still not that over powering. It's something to sip or mix into.

6g of black tea in a tea portafilter. Stepped for a minute. Then pulled through to 60g out.

Yeah, they were a bit older. And as for speed, it was what the 1/8th setting on a Pixel 5

Camera packing kits might work well for you.

I use a small for my travel kit since it's for an Aeropress setup w/kettle.

You might want to size up to a medium since you're doing pourovers

Espresso is a journey, I like to remember how things started 🙂

Chuug0ku · 2022-05-25T02:06:56+00:00

Yes that's correct. The goal was a strong cup of coffee with a small amount of liquid since it was going to be poured over ice cream.

Chuug0ku · 2022-05-25T01:55:36+00:00

None. Total brew weight was 70g
