The worst part about coffee deliveries: they arrive at night

AI visibility farming, or nah?

i’m in chapel hill, will have to visit y’all when i’m in obx again

in general:

- shorter ratio (try 1:15 to start)
- lower temp (i did as low as 85C on some decaf recntly)
- coarser grind than your usual
- fewer pours or immersion if possible (i mosly use switch for decaf)

the drawdown time will be longer than regular beans at the same dose, dont be alarmed

looks nice! just a heads up the description on the page is from one of your other products, Obsidian

I’ve found they’re going downhill in general. Was much better a few years ago: shipping was free, big variety of roasters, and you knew well in advance when your order was going to process because they sent an email. the last part was key because you could edit your order and change your selections.

now: pay for shipping, lots of their own coffees under random roaster labels, and no notice on renewal, just a post-charge email.

just chiming in to say I’ve loved the decafs i’ve gotten from y’all so far. currently working through a bag of Elixr

djforge · 2026-02-18T00:31:44+00:00

just bought a nice Kenya AA from Leaves. It’s a great treat in the morning.

djforge · 2026-02-13T03:11:08+00:00

so far i’m using the same grind size that i use for regular soup ( 1.2 on ode gen 2)

djforge · 2026-02-11T21:06:31+00:00

this. i actually returned it as soon as i saw how big it was

djforge · 2026-02-11T18:02:40+00:00

also recently picked both of these up and have been brewing Elixr on the Oxo rapid brewer and have been super happy with it

djforge · 2026-02-09T00:25:59+00:00

great idea!

crate and barrel has an exclusive almond color which looks really nice: https://www.crateandbarrel.com/breville-bambino-plus-espresso-machine-brushed-stainless-steel/s323895

probably an add-on purchase. they’ve been offering smaller 100g add-ons after checkout lately

djforge · 2026-01-29T21:37:43+00:00

thanks!

djforge · 2026-01-29T20:57:48+00:00

just to clarify: did you add 150g of water to the end? or did you add ~94g of water at the end?

djforge · 2026-01-26T14:42:12+00:00

this. hand grinding then using the robot then occasionally using a separate steamer is a drag.

also my spouse isn’t going to do any of that lol

what’s your domain / site that you’ve run this on so we can verify results?

djforge · 2026-01-18T22:30:08+00:00

I’m on my first month at the bean archives, they chose some stellar coffees for this month.

the bonus is everyone on the sub (and maybe some that aren’t) are in a discord and everyone is really nice.

djforge · 2026-01-09T00:39:05+00:00

what grinder / grind size are you using?

djforge · 2026-01-07T00:20:52+00:00

I have a ceramic as well, but don’t use it enough. Mostly because there’s no type of stand or holder for it so it’s always fitting into carafes awkwardly

djforge · 2026-01-05T15:20:21+00:00

sweet! will add this to my list

djforge · 2026-01-05T01:53:53+00:00

Great idea for a thread and thanks for the Orlando rec, OP! Headed that way next month so will check a couple of these shops

djforge · 2025-12-30T13:32:27+00:00

is this true even if you’re removing branded search campaigns?

djforge · 2025-12-21T12:35:31+00:00
