$$$$$$ Coffee!!!

[ExtraSlow]

My kettle does have settings. I rarely use them.
I do full boil. Rinse cup, let grounds bloom, then pour. Not boiling by then, but don't know temp.

[msommers]

Ideal coffee brewing temp is ~94°C +/- a couple degrees.

To go full aeropress nerd can see all the competitors techniques here. I’m surprised how short they’re brewing for

[ThePenIsMightier]

Isn't boiling temp ~94-96 °C at this elevation?

Tuomas Merikanto would disagree with you.. all those wieners above are all over the place though… but basically everyone of them is under 94C. I still stand by the fine grind being the reason for low temps.

I roll with 200F for coarse French press grind and 208F for my brewer

Looks like Monogram has a sale on. Does Beyond have a particular favorite bean or collection that would be worthwhile to try? I prefer a punchy flavor profile. I grind my own beans and use a Moka pot to fill a thermos in the mornings.

Of course they have their other series (which I can't find on the website) in the black and gold packaging, which is representative of the $$$$$$$$$$ thread title

Eclipse Coffee out in Canmore has a blueberry one that is superb

@msommers thanks for the recommendation! Bought that one, Marta Alemu, Mahiga AA and Tinoco. Let's see where I land!

Since this is the utility coffee thread, how are you dudes doing your aeropress? Like it makes half a cup of strong coffee, and I want a full cup, so it seems good with a half cup of water added. Is that the normal way? The one youtube with some dapper British guy didn't do that, but he has an accent, so he may not be trustworthy.

There is so many recipes, but yeah I found best results for a “normal” drip tasting coffee to work as you described…

Basically would stuff 30g of fine ground coffee in there, full aeroPress of water with ~1min of exposure before pressing (inverted brewing too) then would dilute to a regular 16:1 ratio to drink, was kind of muddy tasting till I reduced water temp and got that proper drip flavour out of the beans

I do 20-22 grams for 1:45-2:15 depending on the bean. I give it a good stir at the beginning and then inverting it after 45s-60s.

It's all about dialing in the grind size and brew time.
