      Going to treat myself to a pour over set up this weekend, got myself hooked thanks to my friends at stumptown.

      Nice!  I love my Chemex and also have a single cup Dolce Caffee that work fantastic!  Make sure you get a scale too - it's crazy how one gram extra or one notch different on the Burr grinder tastes..

        I've been looking at the kalita wave, just for one cup also. Then I got told they were a lot of work as you have to keep pouring the water every 30 seconds or so. Going to look into it a bit more tonight.

          You dont have to pour every 30 seconds. I am lazy, I pour very slow so I just have to pour once, but slow 🙂

              When I read online it said it was the best to get, so i think I'm going to go for it still!

                Love pour over coffee–the hands on approach makes you an active participant in the end cup (Pour speed combined with grind rate, etc...)

                I enjoy using Hario's V60--size 02

                Slate coffee uses both the Wave and the V60 for in house pour overs (different baristos have personal preferences and some use one maker's rig for certain varietals and their competitors for others.

                I'm in the market for a French Press (family size)  any recommendations?  The idea of an insulated carafe sounded appealing

                  Nice set up!  I've never tasted Cemex brewed coffee (Seattle coffee works uses one at their "slow bar").  I am in need of a real scale (use a mini mart special to weigh the beans) to better control the flow rate.

                  Love intelligencia's stuff.  So many great roasters out their!

                      I'm a big fan of Chemex,been using for way over 20 years. I make iced pour over with it. Fill the Chemex halfway with ice,and brew as You normally would. The combination of the melted ice and the water poured over the coffee gives you,in my opinion, the best iced coffee you'll ever have. I drink it all year long. Use a Bonavita kettle to keep my poured water at a constant 200 degrees.

                            Something I really love for single cups is called a Clever Coffee Dripper. Check it out.

                                Nice one David. v60 is what most of the world chaps use. It has the ability for a perfect cup!

                                Due to the variability it can deliver, I mostly opt for a Kalita cup which won't hit the same highs, but is easier for consistency.

                                  Somehow, usps just provided some outstanding service and it was delivered today!  Now to wait for the filters and to buy a kettle.

                                    How many grams of water to coffee do you use? I usually do about 350 mL/25g in my Chemex but havent tried it with ice. I just might tomorrow though [emoji1]

                                      I've also had the same coffee scoop forever and through trial and error I've found that 13 scoops of coffee works perfectly with my Virtuoso grinder set to 16. I use the 10 cup Chemex,about 50oz of water. My brother in law,who is a total coffee geek,keeps bugging me to weigh how much 13 scoops of beans weigh because if I ever loose the scoop I'm fucked. In reality I can also eyeball how much coffee is in the filter and know if the coffee is going to be too weak or strong. Sorry if I wasn't much help.

                                            Coffee looks good, but your outfit looks great Twin. The look fits you well.
