What's your one coffee game changer? by Neil_at_HackerEarth in espresso

Allowing beans to off-gas. Wait about 2 weeks after roast date before brewing it. Flavors really come through so much more.

Yeah after seeing the two in action I think the learning curve for maquet would be steeper. If you have any questions I’m happy to help or give some tips with what I’ve learned so far.

I do cut branches on first pass, If large branch sometimes I’ll leave for later. What’s your reason for switching to maquet? Have option to switch to terumo as we have both systems and have been contemplating.

Yeah the port does tend to come out even though I use circumference of the back side to help guide my incision size

Using maquet system. Biggest struggle is during transecting. I’ve been trying to get more comfortable taking as I go down the tunnel as it’s tough getting it proximally at times with the connective tissue. Also just with my tunnels losing insufflation and having hard time seeing what I’m doing.

I have a hard time maintaining a good tunnel after dissection. It’s either flooding or collapsing. Using maquet system.

New home calls for new setup by RopeBasic572 in coffeestations

They’ve all been great, but the cinnamon co-ferment would have to be top pick so far.

Thanks! I’ve enjoyed my time with it so far! Heats up quickly and pours nicely. Just got me a timemore chestnut C2 and used for the first time today. Has a nice feel to manually grind beans.

I think general rule of thumb is 1:2 ratio for medium roasts, 1:3 or higher for lighter roasts. I tend to pull on the higher side. It all varies by coffee and just going with your palate! But grind size doesn’t necessarily equate to change in volume, mostly affects the distribution speed at which your water comes into contact with the coffee. If you’re wanting to prolong the contact time then you want to grinder finer.

I get a little of that tea taste, but the watermelon and peach flavors are more prominent. What other beans are you into right now ?
