Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

I'm using an aeropress, which is basically a plunger (I use the upside-down method so I can brew it for as long as I like).

I use a heaped scoop when using normal coffee, using the aeropress scoop. That's apparently about 3 tablespoons. Doing double seems like a lot! The supermarket only had 180g bags. If I did double then I only get like 6 coffees out of a bag 😱

I guessed saying twice the amount, mainly as an experiment. Make one once using twice the coffee, just to see what it tastes like. Take it from there, maybe less next time if it’s too strong.

Yeah, I'll have a play and see if I can get it tasting good.
