WAKE UP AND COFFEE

Delicious coffee.

[endo]

just looked up their shop, is the coffee good?

[Alex]

Very, it's close to me in Hackney. I can pick you up some beans and put into your next order if you like @endo

[endo]

thanks @Alex I might get back to this

Can vouch for dark arts coffee, I think it’s delicious and their 1kg bags feel pretty reasonably priced. I also have that shirt @bryaneidins70  I really like their merch.

Coffee at Tylersport.

This is a The Barn brazilian single. Taste is great but I don’t get any noteworthy crema with single roasts… any idea/advice?

Had to give my wife one of her Xmas presents early, as we were entertaining for Hattie’s second birthday and needed more coffee production volume than my Kalita provides.

This Ratio Six is an excellent machine. Almost as good as a meticulously poured Kalita cup and I haven’t played around with grind size yet. I love that it has a stainless steel shower head shaped drip so that blooming and brewing have more uniform distribution of the water. It takes my Kalita 185 filters fine, which is a bonus. And the thing is built very well with a great carafe.

I love to see a room full of two-year-olds after a few decent coffees…...

[mclaincausey]

I wouldn't, at least not at our house

They didn't partake of the mimosas, bloody Marys/Marias, or beers either

I don't have much experience pulling singles, but it might be that your puck is not allowing enough back pressure to build. Maybe grind finer or distribute the grounds in the filter better?

That said, my advice on crema: if the shot tastes good, don't overthink it. Crema tastes awful, anyway. Try skimming it off with a spoon and you'll see what I mean.

Thanks for that input @Mike_Lima_Papa I tried different grinder adjustments but you are right, the puck gives less back pressure with singles then with robusto blends, taste is fine nevertheless
