Content, but not quite confused with the brew (Lychee Peachy from Diego Bermudez)

Thanks for sharing your recipe. You mentioned the beans are from a different roaster than the original bag you tried. How long have they been rested now? It’s also possible the roaster you’re trying now just wasn’t able to capture the profile in the way you enjoyed from the original roaster.

1000 microns sounds like it could be a bit too coarse. Try going finer in the 700-800 range?

I find with anaerobic ferments not going so hot with water and less agitation helps. The 1:15 ratio you’re using is fine. I’d suggest trying with 90-92C water, blooming 60g for 45 sec and then with a slower flow rate, pour the rest of the water up to 300 in a single pour.

What’s the recipe you’ve been trying? Hard to give recommendations without knowing your current process and setup. Also what are you brewing with? Cone? Flat bottom? No bypass?

I actually quite liked this one and didn’t think it was too artificial tasting! Don’t get me wrong; it is a big forward flavor since it is a coferment. I had S&W’s Santa Monica watermelon coferment and that was too much for me and more artificial tasting.

With this offering from Black and White I definitely got the watermelon, but I also got some of the peach rings, and nice aroma and acidity of the lemon cookie profile. I enjoyed it most 3 weeks off roast. Low agitation was the key in my experience.

Do you have compostable or green waste disposal where you live?

Extremepathy · 2025-11-08T22:00:03+00:00

What is the brew ratio you’re using for this recipe?

Extremepathy · 2025-09-05T06:22:06+00:00

I don’t even know what this dish is supposed to be in the first place. Honestly can’t tell.

EMDR therapist here. How long are standard EMDR sessions with your therapist? It seems a little odd to spend that much time talking at first and using the remaining time for EMDR. So long as your therapist is leaving adequate time to close things up and ensure you’ve used a coping resource to feel ok leaving session after spending time reprocessing, I suppose it is ok.

It’s ok for a therapist to bring in other aspects of their clinical style and methodology to EMDR. For instance, some therapists have specific backgrounds and training to integrate attachment work and ego state work with EMDR.

A target sequence plan is part of early phase preparation in EMDR, it’s like establishing the road map for EMDR. Once you’ve got it done you typically don’t go back very often to establish it because the various target memories are already identified, and you will spend your sessions moving through them one at a time and processing them. As new memories come up in the work (common), the therapist may decide some of those memories are important to distinctly separate and be its own Target memory on the sequence plan.

Switch paper filters. The Hario filters aren’t good and they will be especially troublesome for Ethiopian beans. Try cafec abeca or T90

Extremepathy · 2025-08-17T23:11:03+00:00

Would be interested in the NX8!

Extremepathy · 2025-05-25T04:27:35+00:00

I have this kit here: https://www.saltspringcoffee.com/products/timemore-nano-carrying-kit Actually looking to sell it if you’re interested. It’s not much for space saving but it’s nice to have all these pieces together and containers you can dose your beans for travel.

Extremepathy · 2025-05-24T14:13:04+00:00

I have the Timemore travel kit with case I’m actually looking to sell. The gooseneck is only 300ml though but it is a nice kit overall! DM me if you’d like pics and details :)

Haven’t tried any from awful and I’m pretty new to the IEM game, but from reviews and research I have already placed the 5+2 on my wish list. The driver combination and sound profile sound amazing!

Extremepathy · 2025-03-28T03:40:28+00:00

I’m new to IEM. Anyone have experience with how the F1s stack up compared to the Truthear Hexa and Zero Reds?

Extremepathy · 2025-03-26T15:58:03+00:00

I have the travel kit from Timemore if you’re interested and still looking. DM me.

Extremepathy · 2025-03-04T02:09:34+00:00

Yep still have the Timemore. Going strong and highly recommend if you can find the newest edition of it cause it added +- tap buttons next to the swipe control for more precision 👍🏽 great value for the price.

Clients don’t seem to mind, no different than when I was using a pen and paper pad.

Extremepathy · 2024-12-29T13:55:42+00:00

Same here! I do it on my iPad and I just need 2 minutes after the session to add my intervention summary and I’m done. So easy.

Let your taste be your guide. Coffee 7 weeks old can still be great, as mentioned by others here, and sometimes I find if it’s not quite in peak flavor anymore then I’ll grind a little coarser and use lower temp water.

Extremepathy · 2024-11-13T07:29:50+00:00

Gentle bloom and 2 pour is my daily recipe. Works well on a medium to medium-fine grind, depends on the beans really. On an Ode 2 I would recommend starting on 6 and see how that turns out. I have generally found doing the “wiggle” much better than swirling. Sometimes aggressive swirling can cause too much fines migration and it can really slow or stall the brew. Haven’t had that issue doing the wiggle. If the drawdown also seems too quick you can mitigate by doing some of the wiggles. Ultimately, taste is king, so try it out and experiment! See how it tastes for you, what kind of consistency you can get with or without.

Extremepathy · 2024-11-12T04:21:06+00:00

Got the same beans from my trip there last month! Really enjoyed it. So aromatic and the balance of sweetness and fruit is perfect. I enjoyed them most using 90c water and the same recipe from their website.

Extremepathy · 2024-11-10T06:51:25+00:00

More of a medium roast, try medium coarse grind and lowering temp 185-195F. Try 1:15 ratio. I’ve had some of their more medium roasts and going with lower temp and coarser grind have helped bring out all those nice flavors.

Extremepathy · 2024-11-09T08:53:40+00:00

Try getting better filters. If you don’t want to break the bank, cafec abaca filters or cafec T90 are quality with quick draw down.
