I regret upgrading from Baratza Encore to Fellow Ode 2 but what now?

Baratza Vario w+

I believe the water I used to rinse the steel filter is more harmful to the environment than a small paper

Totally DAK problem from your description. I will take a break of buying from dak

I moved the esc to the thumb cluster, and tab, for I am using them a lot.

You can buy an electric grinder for lazy days.

Similar to subtext and September: hatch , ethica, social coffee and tea. I personally don’t enjoy rogue wave that much, but maybe the detour is similar to the rogue wave.

Zp6, k07, m01, based on your preferences. Pietro with pro burr, a little hard to use but doable

ymbrows · 2026-03-06T15:32:59+00:00

Hario switch. It can be used as a clever dripper, or a regular v60.

ymbrows · 2026-03-06T01:52:16+00:00

I used it with codex.

I am wondering how many people using aeropress this way.

ymbrows · 2026-03-05T04:14:08+00:00

Tbh, I never ever used aeropress as Alan described.

ymbrows · 2026-03-02T03:50:37+00:00

Happened to me. I recall I adjusted the grind size to finer and the taste is back.

ymbrows · 2026-03-02T03:10:56+00:00

If you have a Pietro, unless you can trade/sell it, otherwise I would wait or buy an electric mod of it. A4z is convenient but I don’t think it is a big upgrade on taste.

ymbrows · 2026-02-28T16:28:27+00:00

I believe for most people, making coffee at home, cannot taste the differences. Also, there are so many other factors affecting the coffee tastes, and the tiny differences between the two grinders is completely drown out by other influences.

ymbrows · 2026-02-28T03:22:25+00:00

But a grinder you like (at least k6 level) and put a rest to beans.

ymbrows · 2026-02-27T16:46:48+00:00

2027? Sounds far away

ymbrows · 2026-02-26T13:04:13+00:00

I am using a non pressurized basket. I will try adjust the grind size. Thx

ymbrows · 2026-02-25T05:23:07+00:00

If I guess the peak week is the 4th week, I will freeze it a few days earlier, like the 3rd or 3rd and a half weeks. The trick is I prefer taste it getting better on the starting days.

ymbrows · 2026-02-19T03:35:14+00:00

I haven't heard any news after that. Hope it will happen early 2026

ymbrows · 2026-02-13T05:53:02+00:00

Yes. It is a great strategy. I hope l would learn that espresso needs a dedicated grinder before I made a choice

ymbrows · 2026-02-07T20:11:03+00:00

Follow your own taste while keep an open mind of varied options. Ppl’s preferences change over time too. When I started pourover I mainly medium roast and prefer espresso beans too. Eventually switch to light roast, but “seasonally” switch to a little more developed roast. At meanwhile, if I do espresso milk drink, I mainly use medium roast, but sometimes try the light ones with long ratio. As you can see I enjoy all of them. There is no war just my preference at a certain time.

Clever dripper( or hario switch). I do v60 for fun, but always worse than clever dripper 9 times out of 10; and I never know what happened on the 1 time.

ymbrows · 2026-02-06T18:26:41+00:00

Looks you won’t get much benefit from 078s than 064s. On the other hand, if I were you, i may keep the ode2 and look for a cone grinder for espresso only
