Mmm, depression coffee.
Jk. I usually switch to other caffeinated drinks to mix it up, like tea or mate.
I make myself a pot of Arabic coffee on the weekends: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arabic_coffee
It takes about 10-15 minutes during which you have to actually watch the pot to make sure it doesn’t boil over, but it’s worth it.
I think Bodum products are cool, just never used one myself
I feel kind of bad about it too lol
A close friend of mine that I used to work has a brother that designs Bodum products
He was always proud of that, and I would always forget about it and never try their products in support of his work
Whenever I’ve needed a Bodum equivalent product I’ve always just bought the first one I found and it’s never been at a place that has Bodum
I’m a fan of Kyoto cold brew and am thinking of getting a tower so I can brew it at home in the summer.
But I also just got a lever espresso machine so that’ll probably keep me busy for a while.
What does this achieve that a bottle in the fridge doesn’t other than costing 298$ more?
Honestly once I went aeropress I could never go back.
My partner loves the aeropress.
Fair enough! I just like being able to break the routine every now and then to do something new. It’s actually becoming a bit of an issue 😅. I’d love a space on my kitchen wall to display all the different brew methods I have and would like to collect more. Right now I’ve got a gaggia classic pro for espresso, Bialetti for moka, a pour over brewer, cold brew carafe, this vacuum brewer, aeropress, a chemex, and just a regular ol’ drip machine that’s kinda been retired by now. I’d love to find an affordable Europiccola to refurbish!
I waffle between a v60 and an aeropress most days, but if I’m feeling it and I’ve got the time, then I’ll use a vacuum pot.
I don’t really switch up the brewing method any more, I basically only drink steep and release-style pour overs.
I mix it up by getting new beans shipped to me on a monthly basis. Keeps things fresh enough for me.
I use my French press most of the time and a single serve drip when I’m in a hurry.
Kalita Wave 🌊
My standard is a moka pot. One of those and I’m good all day.
Tomorrow for brunch I’m doing Irish coffees with waffles.
I use a French press every now and then. My kids bought me a fully automatic espresso machine a couple of years ago and that’s my everyday brew. Press 3 buttons and done. I’m getting lazier as I get older.
I used to have a large metal commercial vacuum brewer. It was great for large gatherings.
Clever dripper at the office during the week because it is super simple and the least time consume way to get a filtered cup of coffee.
V60 brewer or Kono brewer (with V60 filters) on the weekend with better coffee beans. Recently I have been favoring the Kono since it has less bypass.
I’m a french press kind of guy.
Before I got my gaggia classic, my routine would be v60 on weekdays before work with an aeropress here and there and moka pot on the weekend. The process of moka pot brewing feels so zen to me
Please tell me how you make good espresso on that machine? I cannot for the life of me make anything good without milk
I alternate between French Press and Aeropress.
With the Aeropress, I alternate between metal filters, and paper filters because both taste slightly different.
If I run out of beans or ground, then instant it is!
I put the aeropress away after the cap jumped a thread and a shot near boiling water all over myself. 2nd degree burns are a bad way to start the morning.
