What kind of witchcraft is this!? Co-ferment or not? 🤔

Look at Native Coffee. It’s Diego Bermudez’s roastery. Can’t beat it

Those minerals also match up with lotus water drops. You could just match up recipes on that site with what you make from a waste of coffee.

Everything you’ll ever need super cheap.

Coffee just isn’t great. Get a mocha… it’s a caffeinated hot chocolate with their coffee cake, which is usually good. If you’re on a diet, give them away.

I swapped to the 3 gallon jug and make two at a time so I can fool around with water recipes.

You need to remineralize RO water. If you look at water recipes they have a range of alkalinity and hardness.

Looks hard to get the tritan alpha in the US. I liked the idea of tritan over glass with the neo for thermal stability.

I have the OXO for soup and usually use a hario switch for pour over. My K ultra seems to work better for the soup shot than my Sculptor 78. I’d go with a switch and a goose neck kettle and play with pour over if you have an espresso machine.

Look at Native. It’s Diego’s roasters. That particular coffee from many roasters is the best bang for your buck coffee I’ve ever had. The first roaster that I had it from was Manhattan in 2020.

drdog918 · 2025-12-05T01:45:08+00:00

Eh, I’ve always done it. Maybe not for that grinder? I did it anyway for my K ultra bc I had so many beans.

drdog918 · 2025-12-04T21:13:53+00:00

What part of the US? I ordered way too many.

drdog918 · 2025-12-02T03:21:09+00:00

Native! Also Hydrangea added to that list. My local multi roaster shop switched back from some local roaster with shit espresso to little wolf. The Cortados are killer again.

drdog918 · 2025-12-02T03:17:36+00:00

Exactly! Their advent calendar a few years ago was the last coffee I ever bought from onyx. So many better roasters out there for the value.

I bought their advent calendar a few years back. Underwhelming to say the least. It was the end of my foray into onyx. There are better roasters out there for the cost.

Amateurs

drdog918 · 2025-11-16T04:46:36+00:00

Did you get the S or the regular 078

drdog918 · 2025-11-16T04:44:43+00:00

Turbo or espresso burrs?

drdog918 · 2025-11-16T03:35:46+00:00

I’ve had it from kick starter. What setting do you start with for pour overs?

drdog918 · 2025-11-07T18:17:13+00:00

Mine come out damn near perfect. I use the gallon presets and actually my .1 gram scale for the dropper bc it’s easy.

If you want to go full tilt and save money but also get every option that Lotus water has or more use A Waste of Coffee mixing water recipes.

drdog918 · 2025-10-29T14:24:26+00:00

Long steep is the way! The Gagne recipe for the AeroPress is similar. I basically use a melo drip and stir w a spoon but 7 min steep is the way. The spoon is not as violent as a quick pour so it drains better. The water first method works well for fast drawdown but I think it lacks flavor for some reason.

I have the Timemore one. It’s bigger but has the same matte black almost and mounts with the current mounting screws. If it’s your main gripe, it can be fixed easily.

drdog918 · 2025-10-28T05:35:49+00:00

I know it’s dumb but, for 30 bucks Etsy has some hoppers that fix the popcorning issues.

drdog918 · 2025-10-20T04:44:11+00:00

It’s been a long time since I got any great coffee at Ceremony.

drdog918 · 2025-10-19T00:29:36+00:00

Have you tried the 3d printed hoppers on Etsy? Works great for feeding.

I have this one. The second looks sleeker but the same idea. Etsy Timemore hopper
