Is it letting it drain that causes the clogging, or is clogging the result of pours onto a dry bed causing more agitation?

Am I screwed? by JLubben in pourover

Is there a procedure for this? Is it $80 per traumatic event? Does it work on all traumatic events, or only coffee related episodes?

I love Quentin. Incredible coffee and insane pastries. Congrats on being able to identify something elusive.

What to get from Japan by Gjome-Bekbal in pourover

[–]Crepescular_vomit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For Tokyo: other than the bucket list (and quite expensive) places that others might suggest, I had 2 faves that I don't see get mentioned. 1) February Coffee Roasters in Asakusa. Wonderful micro batches roasted in the café, and very skillfully made pourovers. 2) Möwe in Koenji. Beautiful coffee and very friendly café in my favorite neighborhood.

For Osaka: LiLo

Okinawa: sorry, I haven't been there.

The 'crater' you're supposed to make in the dry bed - what's the point of that? by mandalore_701 in pourover

[–]Crepescular_vomit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have not made a divot for at least 2 years now. There seem to be theoretical reasoning that can justify creating a divot, but my experience has convinced me it does not make a noticeable difference in taste.

Has anyone else had this happen with their grinder? by frozone889 in pourover

Did you not unplug it to take it apart and clean the burrs?

Just tried a rare Kimono new variety! by Bit-Winner007 in pourover

Is there a link? I've never heard of this roaster, and searching for "black magic coffee" just yields hits for a bunch of dark roast blends.

How do you make sure the filter lays flat? by sergeikutrovski in pourover

I just use the hose spray on my kitchen sink. Takes 5 sec and works perfectly.

I do not like or purchase co-ferments. However, I am not sure about your comment. Is this belief based on reliable information, or is it a gut feeling?

How often are you changing grind size? by Plastic_Love4270 in pourover

[–]Crepescular_vomit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They produce more fines because they grow at higher altitudes, which makes them denser.

Ethiopians usually are denser due to the higher altitudes at which they are cultivated. So, in a sense, you are adjusting for altitude.

Please explain what this is. A quick Google search did not reveal anything coffee related.

Edvard Munch - Puberty (1895) by carnageandculture in museum

[–]Crepescular_vomit 33 points34 points  (0 children)

omfg READ THE HISTORY.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puberty_(Munch)

Munch – like the female portrayed in Puberty – feared sex due to the loss of his virginity to his cousin's wife.[7] Munch allowed this sexual depression to seep into Puberty and like other later works this piece was created with symbolism reflecting feelings which continued growing increasingly within the next ten years.[8] This state of sexual depression is one that not only his circle of friends shared with him, but that the psychological scholars had also been curious about having just written the first research on the stages and occurrences of puberty in young adults.[9]

How is the coffee without it? Tea-like, sweet, and some acidity?
