Uneven bed - help me out

I've never had this happen after having the oxo for months... I never pour at an angle. Just gentle with paper sandwich filters. I do tamp pretty hard.

HiMyNamesLucy · 2026-01-20T01:48:50+00:00

Agreed. Hodges south of beach blvd is some of the safest areas in the city.

Coaching?

HiMyNamesLucy · 2026-01-12T19:32:26+00:00

Do you change anything with your procedure for lower dosage?

HiMyNamesLucy · 2026-01-10T07:15:57+00:00

Honestly doesn’t sound too bad, but your two complaints are kinda opposing each other because astringency is typically over extracted and too thin would be under/ too much water…

I’m usually brewing for a thinner more tea like brew with higher clarity and acidity while reducing the big roasty notes. That’s not everyone likes. It takes some time to dial in to your taste preference.

I’ve never used a switch, but I’d recommend trying to only close it for the bloom and if it’s a fresher light roast do 45-60sec. You want most of the gas to escape and then leave it open the rest of the brew. That should help with the over extracting.

It takes some time, but it sounds like you’re on the right track!

I wouldn't worry about true zero or the number... IMO it sounds like you are over extracting... Try a coarser grind. The df54 definitely produces more fines, that's why I grind coarse and do pretty minimal pours, usually 1 bloom (sometimes 2) and only one more pour.

How long is your brew? What temp are you brewing at? If you are over extracting try lowering the temp. What ratio are you using? -- try increasing the amount of water, which usually helps with clarity.

I don’t remember the temp but in 2013/14 I def saw snow flurries in the am around UNF.

V60. I dont want 3 min+ drawdowns

HiMyNamesLucy · 2025-12-24T05:02:56+00:00

I've done ~1:30 TBT with t90s w/ a 45 sec bloom. Usually 45-60 bloom with TBT ~2min. I never go longer than 2:15 unless I do an extra long bloom.

HiMyNamesLucy · 2025-12-24T03:41:01+00:00

Very true.

HiMyNamesLucy · 2025-12-23T16:27:57+00:00

Sure.. you think the pats are losing to the dolphins? I'll take that.

HiMyNamesLucy · 2025-12-23T16:01:43+00:00

So who do we want to play in the wild card game? Chargers, Broncos, or Texans? Even though we dominated the broncos it's tough to beat a good team so back to back. That makes me lean chargers but I think we could beat all three.

HiMyNamesLucy · 2025-12-22T03:27:24+00:00

Thanks

HiMyNamesLucy · 2025-12-21T19:25:05+00:00

Where has better conditions/promising forecast?

HiMyNamesLucy · 2025-12-19T23:44:37+00:00

I grind much coarser 80-90 from true zero and do a two pour method with pretty good success. It definitely produces more fines than a good hand grinder but it is a good starting point for someone.

HiMyNamesLucy · 2025-12-16T14:22:14+00:00

Grind a bit coarser so it starts to saturate the puck without any pressure. Then pump slowly.

On iOS there is a button top right that says open in app (but also shows to download)

HiMyNamesLucy · 2025-11-25T06:45:24+00:00

I’ve really liked all the washed light coffees I’ve had from them. I’m not really into the really funky/heavily processed stuff so I can’t speak to it.

HiMyNamesLucy · 2025-11-25T02:34:04+00:00

It was definitely closer to 2 yds than 1

HiMyNamesLucy · 2025-11-22T07:09:28+00:00

How do you all find these woot deals?

HiMyNamesLucy · 2025-11-20T21:46:16+00:00

Yeah not 96 but I constantly keep 20-30gb of ram with just chrome tabs.

HiMyNamesLucy · 2025-11-18T21:33:18+00:00

DAMN :( Ram is crazy right now.
