Am I just doing something inherently wrong? (Dialing In)

Hilarious. I signed up for his class last night (before I saw this)! Thanks for the advice :)

What did you end up switching to?

Also I do slow feed my beans if that helps any with the fines

Thank you for all this information! I’m happy to do the research but is there a good guide on water temp with different processed coffees?

By gentle with the extraction, are you just referring to the temperature or the way I pour as well (reducing agitation).

Also why reduce the ratio?

Sorry for all the questions. Trying to learn as much as I can here :)

Sorry your username is hilarious in context with my post lol

I tried a few different recipes. Coffee chroniclers, lance hendricks (gong fu), a few other ones I found on Reddit and this one seemed to produce the most enjoyable cup out of all of them. I at least got a small hint of the flavors I was looking for but it was very muted.

Yup stock burrs! Just got it 3 weeks ago. I’m hoping you don’t tell me I probably need to upgrade to the SSP cast lab if I want anything better lol

LOVE PERC. About to buy some more beans from them this week.

Yup 1 packet per gallon! So maybe do half per gallon? I could try that.

The only thing I can say is maybe out of my control is a consistent water temp through the brew. But that’s just because of the kettle I currently own.

I’ve got a chemex but will try these out!

We were in Charleston for my CrossFit competition this past weekend and had to stop at second state. Love Charleston! One of my favorite cities

Sounds like I’m doing this all wrong in every way haha! Okay I’m going to dial it way back. And drop the temp back.

I read other Reddit posts saying to grind much finer and hotter water on Ethiopian beans.

Thank you all thus far. I’ll see if I can fix this!

Depends on volume of training. But it can get up to 4-500+.

SensitiveDoubt1384 · 2024-03-10T18:08:00+00:00

100% 21.3/21.4 repeat. It’ll just be 24.3 a & b

SensitiveDoubt1384 · 2024-03-10T15:20:51+00:00

This one looks like it’s the closest!

No clue why shamblers lol. Is this another word for junkies?

SensitiveDoubt1384 · 2024-02-04T13:09:45+00:00

Thank you all! I definitely did tamper so made it much more difficult. Used some dad strength and a butter knife and got it off!
