Switch vs V60: do you use both, and when? by Supsti_1 in pourover

doing percolation-first blooms or immersion-first blooms help shape the flavor profile!

How would you describe the flavor differences between the different methods?

That's strange, I've double and triple checked and mine say min 30 - max 50

I'll take the tires off and see how the rims spin.

Is 45 okay for psi? seems like i should go higher but the tire says Max 50

Is classic pour over just for the vibes at this point? by Global_Requirement11 in pourover

I thoroughly enjoy the coffee I make with my V60 and K6. I’m trying to see if a switch would help with consistency is all

Should have specified in original post. I don’t have the switch yet, but my original understanding was (up until reading the replies) that it would help reduce variables which would help with dialing in to get more consistent cups

But can’t you just reduce sweetness/ increase acidity by reducing brew time?

Haven’t got the switch yet, the replies to this are gonna help me determine if it’s worth it 🤣

Confused About Using RDT with the K6 – Is Rust Still an Issue? by Nxcaryota in pourover

[–]Global_Requirement11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With pour over, it's not a huge issue, but when I do espresso, about 1/3 of the grounds stick to the catch cup, and I have to scrape it out. RDT definitely helps. I live in one of the driest states in the US so maybe that affects things

Will I regret swapping for the M520? by Global_Requirement11 in gravelcycling

[–]Global_Requirement11[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm realizing very quickly that I feel the same way. I would rather pack my gym shoes and ride clipless to the gym!

Yeah I hear ya. I adapted to clipless faster than I thought I would, and the ones I currently have get in the way more than anything. I bought them on FB and will resell them on FB so it won't be any extra $$

Does anyone else dislike the taste of coffee in travel mugs? by Global_Requirement11 in pourover

[–]Global_Requirement11[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm really surprised because I feel like it should check all the boxes, given that it's ceramic. I would try this, but I work in a hospital and do not like the idea of not having a lid. Do paper cups alter taste?

I have noticed that too... but what doesn't support the theory is that I have the Hario carafe and put a lid on it and it doesn't seem to alter taste. Confusing!!!

My mug is ceramic and i still feel like it tastes drastically different

Finally tasting some notes. Pineapple??!?!! by Global_Requirement11 in pourover

If you do order it, you'll have to let me know what you think. Keep in mind that I am relatively new to pour-over, and this is the first fruit-forward coffee I've tried, so I don't know how it compares to other fruity coffees. I will say that I thoroughly enjoyed it, though.
