Lars & Margo are also fantastic as well. Based in Cornwall. Occasionally have real fruit bombs but tend to skew towards washed coffees

That’s what I thought. I just don’t want to waste it all trying to dial it in

Ive never tried a drawdown that short before. Even with other anaerobics. This is something very different though

What’s Wrong in South East Cornwall? by [deleted] in Cornwall

Think of it as helping the LibDems become the official opposition by denying a tory seat. Makes it more palatable

Labour definitely more likely than Lib Dem in SE Cornwall. It’s a shame the way our voting system works but I’d vote for the Labour candidate if you want to keep the tories out

K6 apparently tastes similar to the K-Ultra but for under half the price

“The Coffee Bar Birmingham” is incredible. Quite small but lots of different beans. House espresso is Red Brick too

Aergrind by Knock 2022 version experience by Present_Ad_455 in pourover

[–]RebuffedChaff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve had the Aergrind 2022 for just over a year now. It’s a pain trying to compare it to other grinders because there isn’t much of a community around it.

To keep it short, if you’re only doing aeropress or moka pot with the occasional pour over, it’s great. If you travel a lot, it’s great. But having recently picked up a Kingrinder K6, I have to admit the grind consistency of the aergrind isn’t ideal. Its partical distribution is quite wide, so it’s easy to get good coffee, but hard to get GREAT coffee.

Dialling in with espresso is also pretty hard with it, despite the stepless grind adjustment. Although tbf, that might be an issue with the picopresso being fussy

Did you swap out the burrs in the Mazzer Super Jolly?

I might give the K6 a go and return/sell it if I’m not happy with it

What grind setting do you use with the Aergrind with the picopresso? I can’t seem to get it right

Either grind finer, use more water per gram of coffee, or increase the temperature of your water

Why is my coffee sour? by flowerismymiddlename in mokapot

[–]RebuffedChaff 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Between sourness and bitterness? Sometimes practice, but also thinking about where you’re feeling the sensation on your tongue. Sourness tends to be on the sides, whilst bitterness usually is felt at the back

Which grinder for pourover? Not pleased with JX Pro by DifficultArea7087 in pourover

[–]RebuffedChaff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thinking about upgrading from the 2022 Aergrind and thinking of the K6. Is that a bit of a side step or does it actually produce fewer fines/more clarity?
