How are you brewing? (self.coffee)

I made a post around a week ago that really took off, and figured we are probably going to see a small spike in activity due to the reddit migration, so I thought we could give it another go!

There are always tons of posts about what beans you are brewing, but my question is HOW are you brewing those beans this week? Sticking to the tried and true v60? Pick up a new Orea and still figuring out the best recipe for it? Pulling some particularly sweet shots on your latest beans haul? Let us know below! What's your brew method of the day/week?

I've been replying on my v60 daily now, never fails to make a good cup! Maybe I'll make an aeropress once every so often each month for a change.

Recently started making Japanese style iced coffee and that's been fantastic for the warm weather!

I have also been experimenting with a Flair Neo, but I've yet to make something I'm entirely satisfied with.

So as a foreigner who has lived in Japan for 15 years, what is Japanese iced coffee, specifically? Really weak instant coffee with coffee cubes mixed in? I'm not trying to be rude I honestly don't know

I'm using James Hoffman's recipe as found here. I can't say that weak instant coffee with coffee cubes sounds particularly enjoyable!

it’s hot-brewed strong directly over ice

@nikmis But Japan so polite, so clean! Iced Coffee is water and americano type coffee, sometimes espress mixed with water. If you want the good stuff go for the latte one liter cartons with sugar and milk in em. That's what Richard Sensei drinks (apparently).
