Behmor worked great, but I couldn't hear the crack through the door- anyone have trouble with this for 1lb batches?

My grinder on my breville is toast after 6mo, so I'm taking that fucker apart. Might have to 3D print a few replacement parts, this isn't going to be fun

Don't think so, but I suppose I could call 'em up

Jhet posted:Have you tried those travel mug filling drip coffee makers? You could even be awesome and grind the beans for her. I mean, they're not amazing machines or anything, but they're like $25 and would taste a lot better than a Keurig. This is the answer I'd go with- there's even some models that do both that and the pot, or either.

Qubee posted:Cold brew coffee instructions, go! Got some properly ground coffee beans from a local roaster, so all I need now are foolproof steps to make some banging cold brew. So many conflicting recipes online, some say 12 hrs, others say 24. Some say 1:4 ratio, coffee : water, others say 1:8. 12 hours for min extraction, 24 for max extraction. 4:1 for concentrate, 1:8 for stuff you don't futz with. I do 18-24hrs 1:8ish ratio in a 1-gal jug with a nut milk bag containing the grounds and it comes out great every time. You really don't need to overthink it, the extraction happens too slow to seriously gently caress up

alnilam posted:Oh man I switched from doing like 2 batches of pour over every morning to a bonavita BV1901 and our mornings (especially with a baby) are so much easier. Now I'm eyeing my manual grinder too and wondering if I should go electric and save the 3-4 minutes of grinding it takes. Is the Capresso Infinity still a good option? I will basically only ever be making pour-over/drip from it so I don't even really need adjustable grind size. Yeah, that's a good one! I enjoy mine

Depends on the bean but yeah I've had much better luck with the behmor 1600 plus, though I don't think you need to roast a pound at a time eh?

Definitely, it's an investment for sure. I had to talk myself into it even with gift cards. Don't regret it though

silvergoose posted:Israeli coworker just said she can't drink brewed coffee because it just doesn't taste like what she's used to...which after some interrogation I figured out it's Finjan style, like Turkish coffee? That muddy stuff. Is it good? If done well it's pretty okay, just like most methods

Gunder posted:It makes a great cup of coffee on the cheap, but it won't taste anything like an espresso. It's more like a french press in my mind. Can confirm! All my co-workers swear by it though, and barring a moka pot, is probably the easiest coffee maker you can buy that can be portable

Keeper Garrett posted:Looking to start making real espresso, had a Moka Pot for the last 7 years. This Breville Barista Express has good reviews. I would also use the frother extensively. Is there anything else I need to know? It's okay for what it is— I love mine, but I know it's not going to give me results like I'd get with a more serious setup. I'm sure many people have better options for each of the tasks (grinding/frothing/espresso), but as an all-in-one it's pretty worth it

mediaphage posted:I think a lot of these machines are like audiophile speakers. They get you 90% there for less cost and effort but there’s always more money or time to spend if you want to. hahaha that's a really good analogy, I'm borrowing that Keeper Garrett posted:Thanks, a decent all in one seems to be the best bet for me at the moment, and it is affordable. Mine has served me well for about 3? years now. I will say that harder beans tend to make the motor gently caress up on the burr grinder, so be sure to shop-vac out the dust every so often so you don't gum up the works. There will come a point where you have to take some things apart, but don't worry about it: the tutorials and cleaning products you buy are really straightforward. e. if you don't know what use the hot water thingo is, my wife uses it as an instant tea kettle. It's also pre-programmed to shut off after about 8oz of water makes it through, so it's decent for americanos I guess?

I set a timer on my phone for 30-60secs before that thing goes off

Flash Gordon Ramsay posted:I've always been impressed with the build quality of Breville stuff though Yeah, I mean I've had to rebuild the grinder in my barista express a couple times but that's because I was an idiot. For an integrated machine it's easy enough to take apart and reassemble. 4 years service, limited swearing

Tippecanoe posted:Ooh, I've wanted to get a Behmor for a while now. How do you find it? does it get real smoky indoors? I like mine, but it definitely does put off some fumes. Put it near an open window and/or an air filter. preferably in the garage or something like that
