That's fair, only takes me about a minute though. But no need to change anything if you're already happy with your results 👍
BTW, for a different take on how much of an impact chaff has:
Very interesting, thanks for the link.
Had not heard of Ray Murakawa’s channel before, but I like his style! Thanks for sharing.
I'll pick out defects if I spot them, but I don't obsess over it. Re: chaff, after some experimentation, I don't feel like it makes a significant difference in my cups for the most part.
That’s really interesting, thanks for sharing. I find that some beans have more chaff than others, so I might selectively employ this. What methods do you prefer for your brews? I’m typically brewing pour over with v60 or Orea v3.
I use an Aeropress and stick to Hoffman's Ultimate Recipe mostly.
Too late for this morning. Tomorrow, I'll take a closer look at my beans but I don't recall seeing anything that I would think of as chaff.
It becomes more obvious when you first grind the beans very coarsely. I have an old grinder standing around that I have set to very coarse permanently, so I don't have to spend too much time adjusting & readjusting. When you blow on the grounds, the chaff starts flying out, for most roasts I had it's a decent amount, probably enough to affect the taste of the brew.
