      ^who is the grinder by, looks so sweet!

      hey, sry for the late reply…the grinder is nothin special, 25bucks from eBay. the brand is called "Haushalt International" ...really nothing special ^^

      Should check out if it's a Ceramic Conical Burr Grinder. The different in grinder types/styles is;
      a)ceramic - it keeps cool and doesn't cause friction/burn the beans
      b)conical - helps with consistent partical sizing
      c)burr - these crush the beans and help open the coffee bean up. Blade grinders slice the bean.

      …

      I hope this is helpful, it does make a taste difference, and I also kind of both love and hate I know this much about coffee :|

      it is, and yes, was really helpful (as all the other info you've posted in this thread)…thanks my friend!

        Ah, Yeah I didn't see the range server in the photo. Totally agree, little more cleaning over all.

        In terms of timing, I clean the range server after the 2nd cup, not at the time of pouring the first (mind you if I was making for 2 people, I'd be different).

        Riddle me this, is the time/effort involved in making 2 cups of Aeropress greater than or less than 2 cups with a V60? I'd say overall it's about the same. V60 makes 2 cups @ once, Aeropress you have to repeat the same routine twice….

            Yes, making two cups would be about the same.

                Rafa, if you have any issues finding a satisfactory mug PM me and I'll ship you one of those Dogwood mugs I posted in the coffee thread.

                  Love my burr grinder. Here's it set to 15 for a pourover. Great uniformity.

                      My grinder's burrs are not ceramic, it's Swiss-made stainless steel. Ceramic is optimal, but to hit a ~$100 price point that was the compromise.

                      Think it, be it.

                        all i read is "swiss-made", so it should be perfect 😉 … 😛

                        that kettle is super nice. too bad i wasn't able to get it...gonna buy a different one now with a bigger spout. should do the trick as well i think! pouring it isn't as classy though as with the one above...

                        and thanks for the offer McKleine...gonna search around a bit more and then we'll see!

                                    MCL the ceramic hand grinders are about $30-50 USD. But they're hand grinders I get that :).

                                          Siphon! Great series Urbs, beautiful photography. Really love the last 2 images, especially the 2nd last; the lighting/focus/DoF is just buttery.

                                            Finn, The Coava Kone needs a pretty large grind size to keep on par. That said the bits on top are the largest bits, it's a fair bit finer than that throughout - the particle size is a little varied. (taste was great, of course 🙂 )
