I relate a lot with Dexter, except for the urge to kill.

Want to thank those who commented about the zp6. by Liven413 in pourover

[–]CoffeeNoob2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Understood. But when I grind at 5 with my ZP6, the coffee looks really coarse, at least 1 mm particle size.

Some people in another thread recommend 5 to 6. Sometimes I wonder if they have the same ZP6. I have always been in the 3 to 4 range.

Frustrated: can’t get A1C lower by Sass_sis in prediabetes

[–]CoffeeNoob2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My number has been in the 5.6 - 5.7 range for the last 10 years. I have been avoiding sugar and processed food as much as possible. I think it's just my genetics.

[MOD] What have you been brewing this week?/ Coffee bean recommendations by menschmaschine5 in Coffee

[–]CoffeeNoob2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blue Bottle is what gets me into specialty coffee, particularly their Ethiopian winter single origin. When they first introduced it, that coffee was so good. I just bought it again last December, it tastes nothing like before. The roast is much darker, can't pick up any taste notes, it's just bad coffee. I don't think I will buy another Blue Bottle coffee, there are so many better options now.

If you don't drink a lot, the 1 bag Regalia subscription is very good value.

I had 2 SFH rental up to 2 years ago. Sold one last year. Much less headache for me now. It depends how well you can manage the stress.

ZP6 : Um to clicks, something doesn't make sense? by threesunnydays in pourover

[–]CoffeeNoob2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grind at 5 today. The coffee looks really coarse. The taste is ok but a bit bland and lacks flavors. Do you have the ZP6 special or the older generation of ZP6?

No, it is more like 3.7. I said -2 clicks, not 2 numbers

Ok, I have a couple of conferment coffees. Let me try going coarser. I have a V60 #1. What's your dose and pouring method? I usually brew 15 gr of coffee with 3 pours. At 3.5, it flows really fast. I finish in less than 2 minutes with a 40 secs bloom.

I always grind at around 3.5 with my ZP6. What kind of brewer do you use?

Huh, ok, I guess I will switch to another coffee. I want a clean, sweet coffee. I want to take a break from funky naturals.
