That's one I haven't tried yet. I have a cat that likes to destroy everything, and I find even want to introduce that to the equation yet.

If you've got about 25 minutes, Lance Hedrick actually made a video pretty recently about exactly this topic!
Ain't that the fun tho? The experimentation? It's what I love about it.
That's what this community really should be about! Having fun with the coffee we have, but having even more fun with the journey to the next best cup. I know I'm constantly trying and learning new things.
I was so surprised how much more I enjoyed his method over my previous attempts. Don't get me wrong, I still think most French press attempts turn out pretty good and are much harder to screw up than a v60. But after switching to Hoffmann's method it has been consistently solid
Hey, pour over is just a good old classic. You can't really repeat the ritual or flavors you get with it anywhere else. And sometimes the most simple is the most enjoyable.
I've been looking at the flair 58 as a potential entry into espresso. I have a JX Pro, which I have read should be serviceable to grind for espresso.
How have the shots been on your 58? Only complaints I've heard are in relation to preheating, anything else that you love/dislike?
Very much understandable. I just love the morning ritual of making a good cup of coffee, and after tons of practice and hundreds of different beans, it's fun to mix it up with different brew styles and recipes!
French press is just so consistently awesome. It really only makes a bad cup when the beans themselves aren't all that great.
My wife loves the aeropress for her iced lattes. I just use the aeropress with the prismo attachment.
V60 is definitely my favorite, but as I continue to collect more gear, I almost feel guilty if I dont go back and use some for a little bit. So I'll go on binges with my French press, the Stagg, chemex, aeropress, aeropress with prismo.
And if either James Hoffman or Lance Hedrick drop a new video highlighting a piece I already have, you better believe I am gonna go back and try what they are suggesting.
Dude, I know you can't say why, but I sincerely hope you come back after your...excursion? And update us all with the results. And may e tell us why when you have the chance.
Just coming in here and saying you can't shit for 3 days. What on earth is this.
I'm rocking the one that's almost a Tiffany blue. The wife got to choose the color as long as I got to choose the machine!
