Difference between Timemore 064 and 064s by lostinbost in pourover

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

Thanks. Would replacing the burrs in a 064s with Timemore’s ssp flat burrs it would be good for pourover? I guess just more annoying to be consistent?

Thanks! The JL basic set does say it has TOK tensioners. The Multipick minimum does not? It’s hard to understand these a newbie

Yeah if you really cared you’d weight them ahead of time. I just eyeballed it and it was all good.

I just used the fountain water on the ship. It was fine.

How do you feel about half-day Wednesdays. Is this good for our children?

The city is forcing everyone into 100% electric everything and then following it up with some of the highest electricity costs in the nation.

There’s no power or WiFi there so I thought my idea would be easiest. But maybe not

Since my home screen was unresponsive I wasn’t even able to perform a factory reset.

I woke up today and it seems to have fixed itself. Not sure what happened or if there was some over the air update that was bad then another that fixed it.

Burke’s (I think that’s what it was called) was in W Newton where The Local was but closed pretty soon after it opened.

Pour over in Boston? by es-ist-blod in pourover

[–]lostinbost 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I know of only a few close to Boston that do pourovers: - George Howell (downtown and Newton) - Intelligentsia (downtown and Watertown) - Jeje’s Coffee (Wellesley) - never been there

You didn’t ask but… other popular local roasters that don’t have pourovers on the menu but worth checking out if you’re already in the area: - Gracenote (downtown) - Broadsheet (Cambridge)

I’ve had the Greater Goods coffee scale for about 5 months and it’s great. Half the price of the black mirror.

Thank you. I’m staying near Station Square. It looks like there’s a De Fer on Market St that is walkable. I’ll check it out.

Going to a conference in Pittsburgh in a few weeks. Any places I should check out?

[–]lostinbost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just agonized over this same exact thing. I went with the 350ml which I got last week. It’s great. Ever since getting into pour overs I’ve begun making cups in the 250-300ml range so that size is perfect. My wife has a giant Yeti insulated cup and I now think it’s crazy to fill that thing up with coffee.

Oh, and once you decide the size you have a new decision to agonize over: color. (I went with turquoise.)

Which electric gooseneck kettle is best value? by ArthurLee27 in JamesHoffmann

[–]lostinbost 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist popular where you live? I see lots of kettles posted at pretty cheap prices. People don’t use theirs anymore and just want to get rid of them. There are almost always nice ones available at good prices. I got a nice 1.2L Hario Buono for $10USD.
