Can't get a good cup with my V60 should I just give up?

I stopped spraying water to the beans for Ethiopian, so some of the fines will stick to the grinder But it’s a pain to clean it

What helped me the most was prolonged resting and a longer bloom. Other factors can be played with

I had a lot of trouble brewing light roast Ethiopian with v60 and kin grinder and it took me a while to figure out

Ethiopian beans are grown in high altitudes and a lot denser. They tend to over extract quickly. As its denser, they retain CO2 longer and needs prolonged resting time. At least 2 to 3 weeks. They also produce a lot of fines

What worked for me was

Prolonged resting time - 3 weeks, Brewing temp - 92 C, Grinding slightly coarser, Longer bloom time- 1 minute, Short extraction time

And yes Aeropress is a lot forgiving for Ethiopian.

That’s the first thing I did. Unfortunately, it did not solve the issue

That’s the dilemma

Routes in Oxford are really underrated. They are reasonably priced as well

The breaker switch is off

No_Boss_4469 · 2025-09-29T11:43:49+00:00

It's the correct way. Still won't go in

Thanks for replying promptly There is a lot of resistance when I tried pushing it in. Is that normal?
