      Would you ever consider trying iced pour over? For me it’s the best of both worlds,as less hot water passes over the grounds I find it to be a little less acidic,and you’re still able to preserve your water to coffee ratio. There’s quite a few YouTube videos.

        Anyone else here swear by an aeropress? Constantly blind test beats £1000 machines. Get your grind, weight, and water temp right and the coffee is incredible…

          ^ sure but that's for filtered coffee not an espresso. even a moccamaster for batch brew wouldn't cost anywhere near 1000quid. even with a set up of v90 would still fall far from that figure.. the good thing about aeropress is it's ability to be taken almost everywhere with you..

              I bought a Wacaco nanopresso on our recent weekend in Brighton. Made my first espresso with it this morning. Need to experiment with hand grind of the beans, water temp, and tamping,  good first result though, pretty good crema . Costs £59.95

                Yeah love it. My favorite way to make coffee… although I like Chemex as well

                  Interesting. Looking forward to hear more about your experiences.

                    @Chap first few espresso brewed and I can't speak highly enough of the Nanopresso.  It's a really quick process, the coffee grind compartment if filled and tamped by the time the kettle is boiled.

                    I made my brother-in-law a flat white with it today, and he was amazed. He owns a Nespresso (never tried one myself), but he says this coffee far exceeded it, and he ordered one there and then. It's easy to use, clean, and assemble. Definite bargain.

                              Hah. That's all I do these days @Jett129 ! I agree. I fill the kalita with ice and have all my ratios dialed.

                              Think it, be it.

                                      Just got this one in the mail a couple days ago. Probably the funniest show I’ve ever seen.
