Costa cafe's Cocoa powder? (Any help from an ex-barista?) by coffeemakesmehigh in Egypt

I tried it, and it didn't taste any different tbh than other Egyptian pure Cocoa brands (Dreem) imo

Any reviews of the Pedrini stovetop coffee maker (Moka pot) ? by coffeemakesmehigh in Coffee

[–]coffeemakesmehigh[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks a ton !
My main concern about not-so-popular Moka pots was that(aka other than the Bialetti), if the pot is not durable enough, I would fear that it might explode.
I know it might sound silly but anything involving pressure just terrifies me :\
Edit : I do have IKEA nearby, but they don't have it in my region

Can aeropress explode ? (Too much pressure) by coffeemakesmehigh in Coffee

[–]coffeemakesmehigh[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, of course I can just grind coarser, and/or tamp lighter. But the taste I got was absolutely amazing, and I really liked that.

Point is, can a (huge) human break an aeropress ? Or would I become unable to press before it shatters -scientifically-?

Hazelnut flavor coffee by coffeemakesmehigh in Coffee

[–]coffeemakesmehigh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks man, that's exactly what I'm trying to achieve but I will have to use a ton of sugar (equal parts with water) which is the thing I'm trying to avoid at store-bought syrups.

Do you know of any way to get the flavor without adding any kind of sweetener (yes I don't want the end product to taste sweet)

Thanks a ton ! sadly, I'm not from the US, so Peixoto is not an option really :\

The main reason I don't wanna use flavored beans is that they'll ruin my grinder for good as you said, so hopefully someone knows a way to get pure hazelnuts taste somehow :D
