Wake Up and Coffee

[Anesthetist]

I finally got my hands on the revered Comandante and it does not disappoint! I have used it for V60, Chemex, and just now espresso and all three have been an improvement over my Baratza. I am looking forward to play around with it and really dial it in, esp with my V60. It’s a great piece of kit and I cant recommend it enough.

Breakfast & coffee.

Who is this?

Looking good, @twin

I just pulled a bottomless. Yes, it was risky to wear the Cream 1600, but the tamp was even, no coffee squirts

Thanks @weftyarn

My first experience of black honey processed beans - something new from my favourite coffee merchant. Works well with my trusty Walküre Bayreuth coffee maker.

Any chance for a picture of what the beans look like. Just curious as to the roast level used.Thanks. @ARNC

This is an Indonesian that is not wet hulled. This is the second time I’ve had an Indonesian varietal that was not traditionally processed. First time was a Java bean that was grown and processed in Colombia using carbonic maceration, a winemaking technique, to ferment. That was incredible.

This one is using a honey process instead of the typical Indonesian wet hulking process. Once again, I really like the coffee.

I have always stayed away from Indonesian coffees because they’re too heavy on the leather and chocolate and often taste burnt to me. It’s nice to see what the beans actually taste like when different processing is used.

Interesting background info, @mclaincausey

Makes me want to dive in deeper on the process of the bean before it goes into the grinder.
Until now, I’ve only really cared about general flavor/characteristic of the bean, the grind itself and of course the extraction.
