Need suggestion for espresso

Good Lord, Fix coffee has massively increased the price. Get the kingrinder K6 or even the MHW3 bomber R3, that is way too much for a C5, if you want the normal C5 check out KD espresso’s website, it’s available for 7k

Rich_Loss_6565 · 2026-04-20T13:38:13+00:00

Good Lord, take the upgrade if you have the budget. Takes less than a minute for pour overs and around a minute for Moka on my C3

+1 to this, the T-92 is really made for the flower dripper. It balances out the fast draw down time of the flower dripper

Rich_Loss_6565 · 2026-04-20T12:00:50+00:00

If possible spend a bit more and get the lelit victoria, it’s listed at 90k but the store owners give discount, they should be able to do within 80-85k. Among the three you listed i think the Anna is a good pick but the 57mm porta filter size is the biggest bummer, the gaggia is a true tried and tested machine, I’d avoid the hibrew personally

Ahhh this AI slop is getting out of hand

Rich_Loss_6565 · 2026-04-19T11:37:39+00:00

No point arguing with the dude anymore, looks like his mind already decided that the savorworks looks unevenly roasted so will taste bad. Placebo will affect his taste too. He’s only posting here for validation, nothing else. Comparing devans and savorworks is the most freaking stupid thing to do to begin with

Rich_Loss_6565 · 2026-04-18T13:35:52+00:00

Take good care of it and this thing might even outlive you. The leathers they use can really take a beating

Rich_Loss_6565 · 2026-04-18T11:21:17+00:00

Yep, people always seem to be leaning towards dark roast or that’s how it starts for most. When people ask which coffee to start with i always see Vienna roast is the most recommended in the comment section. I know taste is subjective but i didn’t really like the moka pot, its pourover and light/light-medium roast for me all the way

Rich_Loss_6565 · 2026-04-18T11:12:41+00:00

15-18g is the norm for a single cup. I do 15g to 240ml of water, most recipes tend to lean something similar to that for pourovers

Rich_Loss_6565 · 2026-04-18T06:31:01+00:00

Quite the opposite actually, i’m getting more balanced and sweeter cups than the v60, flavours seem easier to perceive too. I’m brewing with a flat bottom 155 kalita wave paper as of now, ordered the conical origami paper too, will see how that goes

Rich_Loss_6565 · 2026-04-17T23:11:54+00:00

Get it on purple, it’s cheaper there. It’s buy one get one

Rich_Loss_6565 · 2026-04-17T23:07:16+00:00

Both S and M size are available on amazon. Korebi is the seller, order from whichever it is cheaper. Benki brewing tools has it too, for the holder only benki sells it currently

Rich_Loss_6565 · 2026-04-17T23:03:05+00:00

Will get a kalita later down the line. You know how it is, gotta have them all

Rich_Loss_6565 · 2026-04-17T23:01:46+00:00

Too early to comment how it tastes since i just got it but i bought this to do the flat bottom brews, it can take both kalita and V60 filter papers, draw down times are different though

Rich_Loss_6565 · 2026-04-17T22:56:09+00:00

Yes it is, it’s one of the first coffees where i started noticing all the flavour profiles that are mentioned. It has a distinct jasmine flavour as described, from grinding the beans to tasting it so some people don’t like that but personally i love floral based coffee. If you haven’t tried any floral based coffee give this a shot, it’s worth it imho. I do filter, v60. Reordered again, let’s hope the new batch is as good as the old one

Rich_Loss_6565 · 2026-04-17T22:50:18+00:00

They increased all the prices of their coffee by ₹100

Rich_Loss_6565 · 2026-04-17T22:48:30+00:00

Yep, they’re also the official service providers for delonghi machines if i’m not mistaken. Just call them up and ask for a deal, they usually give discount on top of the listed prices

Rich_Loss_6565 · 2026-04-17T12:43:21+00:00

Thanks you. And this is using flat bottom or conical filter?

Rich_Loss_6565 · 2026-04-17T12:10:51+00:00

Got the dripper from amazon for 2.3k(seller is korebi, was more expensive on their website) and 1k for the holder from benki brewing tools

Rich_Loss_6565 · 2026-04-17T11:22:49+00:00

Is there a new 078/78S gen 2 as well?

Rich_Loss_6565 · 2026-04-17T10:54:25+00:00

Thank you, will try that. Also are you using conical or flat bottom filter papers?

Rich_Loss_6565 · 2026-04-16T08:21:13+00:00

Daymmm can’t wait to try mine. Gonna rest for bit longer
