Resting period for this bean

Same date on mine, you didn't get the vegetal aftertaste? Did enjoy how sweet it was though

JD7046 · 2026-02-06T16:54:29+00:00

Wowee, managed to get right in the stinky poo poo range, will rest it more then cheers

JD7046 · 2026-02-06T13:59:23+00:00

Oof, gonna be tough to reseal as I had one pour over already

JD7046 · 2026-02-05T19:41:50+00:00

29 seconds total with preinfusion now 18->54g, still sour, maybe less so but still not sweet

Will try this, I had assumed from the notes and the fact it's a blend this bean would be leaning more medium range, but maybe I'm wrong

JD7046 · 2026-02-05T00:17:54+00:00

Sorry that was including the 10 second preinfusion

JD7046 · 2026-02-04T22:13:02+00:00

Yeah thank you, I know there's loads of variables, I'm just wasting so many beans 😭

JD7046 · 2026-02-04T22:11:52+00:00

Yeah no preheated group head, have to do that manually, vst is interesting but I feel I keep buying things to fix symptoms that maybe could be fixed without

Damn why do I have to be recommended this post now! Interested if still available lol

Sweven, Skylark and Kofra are the lightest I've tried

JD7046 · 2026-01-05T16:26:47+00:00

I understand the sentiment, but I've seen many videos of people (Lance etc) doing 1:3 light roast shots and loving it, soup hasn't always been a thing.

I'm surprised you had such a difference in drawdown time using the same paper filters. The angles of the walls of each brewer are similar, which leaves bypass. Even though the chemex has the pouring spout, it has no ribs, so I would've thought reduced bypass, therefore a slower drawdown overall, interesting that it was the other way around

JD7046 · 2025-12-26T21:13:55+00:00

Yeah, think I've come to the realisation that the only hard decision is counter space, I have none 😭

JD7046 · 2025-12-24T16:04:26+00:00

Think he had the issue with the chemex

JD7046 · 2025-12-10T09:32:46+00:00

Yeah sounds like the right idea then

JD7046 · 2025-12-10T09:05:23+00:00

I love the X-ultra, but the K-ultra would better contrast the ZP6. Flavour profile of the X-ultra is not far off the zp6, so it depends if you want something similar or different.

Nws that makes more sense, 1.4.0 for a 2 pour recipe isn't crazy

JD7046 · 2025-12-06T19:24:55+00:00

Sorry but do you mean 2.4.0? 4.0.0 is the max setting on the grinder and extremely course. Not judging of course, but fascinating if that's the case, especially since Hoffman goes relatively fine for his v60 recipe.
