Yes, if you want a hell-strong coffee. I make espresso boiling water over coffee in espresso maker. Add some milk and sugar and leave it to cool off. The cofee is very strong but sure tastes good.

Aeropress & manual coffee grinder. I used to use a french press, nothing wrong with those either.

Different beans need to be ground finer or rougher, brewed for different lengths of time, and require different grind-to-water ratios.

I'm not a coffee snob but I find experimenting to be enjoyable, and it is tastier.

My setup is so non-electric hat it is hardly very /g/, heck I even often use an old-fashioned fire-based oven to heat it (during winter, since the oven helps keep the house warm)

manual coffee grinder + bialetti moka pot or whatever the correct expression is in english. I've two, the 3 cup one and the 6 cup one

my usual way of actually drinking it

daily reminder that (most) tea and all coffee contain what even the fda considers dangerous levels of fluoride

out of a keurig.

I actually work for a coffee company, and grind about 80,000 lbs of coffee every time I work.
So in a sense I grind my own beans, but long before they get packaged into kcups and delivered to my door.

still tastes pretty damn fresh out of a kcup. its not the worlds best cup of coffee but some of the kcups i would say are in the top 10 percentile of good tasting cups of coffee.
critics might say its underextracted and they're probably right, but It tastes right to me.

I can say after working at a coffee company for 5+ years and getting elbow deep in fresh grounds on a daily basis, I'm still not sick of drinking coffee.

>>60005554

As the op, I just wanted to post my genelecs and maybe get some coffee discussion and my waifu Bridget Regan

I just bought a french press. Is it true that coffee goes stale a week after roasting?

>>60005747
nah...

>>60005747
stale is objective
the coffee loses a lot of gasses within the first 48 hours after roasting. grinding also releases a lot of gasses. If you consider coffee that has completely degassed to be stale, then yeah that shit is stale

most people don't consider degassed coffee to be stale, but it definitely loses something.

>>60003473
I roast my own beans and then grind them and make espresso. I think it's worth it, better than almost every coffee shop I've visited.

Right out of the bag the taste is comparable but ground begins to lose it's flavor before I can use all of it.

Day-job barista here, grinding your own coffee is great if you want to get some extra liveliness out of your cup. If you want the quick-and-dirty on the cheap, just get some nice pre-ground stuffs. I'll always advocate for something a little nicer.

Turks got it from Africa, Ethiopia in particular if my memory serves me. Then Turkey, then Italy, then the rest of Europe, etc.

Moka pots are great, although I've never had luck myself. Strong stuff, but no need to get anything really high quality, since it's an imprecise brew method imo.

>>60005747
French presses are so easy and do a decent cup consistently.

What I don't understand is why manual burr grinders are so damn expensive, when it's a literal quality of life downgrade. The bare limit is $60 if you want one that isn't full of plastic parts that rattle and deposit literal metal shrapnel into your coffee as the burr grinder mechanism literally grinds itself to bits.

My regular mug is 16 fl. oz, I'd need 20g of coffee and it would take probably 10 minutes of hard grinding every fucking day, why do people even bother?

>>60003697
Maybe because there is a coffee thread already? Try posting in there

>>60008255
no there isn't

the question of the beans is really this:
are you willing to either grind by hand or spend some actual money on a proper electric grinder?

good hand models can be cheap, but it is really quite bothersome if you don't like to get that involved. I grind by hand but I do it only because I like that kind of manual activity

but good electric grinders, won't you have to drop more than, like, 100 moneys on one no matter what. at that point you really need to look at your whole setup, what level of coffee you're willing to buy, etc. grinding makes a difference but the difference is smaller than what you get from the rest of the process + the choice of coffee itself. you should definitely experiment a little before going grindin', try out a moka pot, try out a french press, why not aeropress, etc...

>>60008205
Don't lie.
You could replace the hand crank with a power drill and it would still take at least a minute of non-stop grinding to grind 4 cups worth.

Grind consistency is such an overblown meme, the easiest way to make non-shit coffee is to brew below boiling temperature.

got one of these, takes 5 full minutes of grinding action every morning but i'd say it's still worth it. automatic grinders are expensive and i only have one coffee a day.

I drank preground medium or light roast for years and always needed sugar and cream or creamer but recently started grinding dark roast and have been enjoying it black, especially if I cold brew. Though sometimes I'll add cream or sugar

I'm still using one of those cheap blade grinders and a cheap french press, I'd like to invest in a burr grinder and a pour over station for when I want a hot brewed cup.

Tried one the other day and they think Dark Roast is "Extra Burnt"

>>60014701
I google them. Always. Unless I feel like taking a risk.

That said, I'm not much of an experimenter. I have a few local places I trust, I buy them when I want quality and some basic generic market stuff when I just want something that works.

>>60003473
yes

>>60014701
Trial and error.

>>60014695
Never tried it myself.

But some people I know said ti was different, but not mind blowing.

Fairly sure it's just a meme.
People like stuff that's expensive.

>>60014483
Yes, great isn't it?

>literal /ck/ threads allowed on /g/
>all these autists who use a hand powered burr mill

i swear to fucking god you should all kill yourselves.

>>60015135
Yeah, surely part of its "well-knowness" it that the productin method sounds p weird and it costs a lot.

>>60015135
If it's different and not absurdly expensive then it could be worth it for the experience. If I was particularly wealthy I'd try black ivory coffee but $50 for pretty good/interesting coffee is beyond my limit.

>>60015237
It isn't absurdly expensive to try, you should be able to get 100g for under $50 and smaller amounts can be bought, but it'd be pretty expensive to drink all the time.

>>60014618
it happens to everyone, it causes blood vessels to swell (vasodilation) which can result in headaches if you have too much and interfere with the glymphatic system during sleep

>>60014634
good idea, didn't know about these

>>60015148
it is too much excitement, I prefer a calm serene state

>>60014634
Mate "tea" may be worth trying out, too. Roasted mate has almost a coffee-like taste.

>>60003473
>>60003626
^ This.

I use an electrical one, I had it for 10 years, still working just fine. I wanted to use pre-grinded bags at first, but they almost blew up my shitty coffee machine.

Since these "beans-to-coffee" machines cost a fortune - if you want to buy a good one - I just opted for this version. It works fine.

It's also cheaper than bags.

>Hand-crank fags on a technology board
Get an espresso machine or fuck off you autists.

Nice meme asshole you make it yourself?

The mongoloid sub-species grouping is generally accepted as the origin for middle easterners along with Africa (which is historically a much more conplete origin theory anyways)
No wonder they're all coming home to Scandinavia

I make your mom sit on my beans until they are ground properly

>>60003473
IS this a fucking question?

Ground coffee is dried up shit

The oils and gases need to stay tucked inside that bean until ready for optimal flavor

Also don't buy shitty store shelf beans. They've been collecting dust.

Get your whole beans from a local roaster or coffee shop who gets their beans local. A $10 coffee mate will be a fine grinder.

Lastly, use a French press! Clean it after using immediately!

Granulated sugar is fine, it dissolves more readily than raw shit. I just use half and half.

NEVER put flavored beans in your machine.

I buy the 2 lb bags of Melitta medium roast Columbian beans, best price/quality option for me that I've found, tried a local roaster but wasn't crazy about the taste and they are much more expensive. Sometimes I get Kicking Horse since they're the only whole bean coffee the closest store to me sell, but they're also much more expensive and I drink a fair bit of coffee.

Always black, no sweetener.

>>60020506
>local beans

Not a thing tho

there's nothing wrong with manual grinders
grinding takes less time than it takes for the water to boil

at home either use my aeropress or use the grounds from the burr grinder in the drip coffee bot

at work i just use the coffee machines that, i definitely want to learn how to use the espresso machines, they're pretty sick

>>60021482
Everybody in this thread, take note of what an intelligent post looks like. Everybody be like this, applying logic without meme interference.

>>60004806
as someone who spent a lot of time in Turkey, this is pretty accurate as far as memes go.

>>60003473
I buy my coffee beans from a local roaster who roasts coffee to order and ships it overnight to you so you get it literally the day after it was roasted.

I use a Barzata Virtuoso electric burr grinder

I use a Bonavita electric temperature controlled gooseneck kettle

I use an electronic scale

And I brew using a pour-over method using a Chemex with unbleached filters.

After having tried French press, Aeropress, Chemex using a metal filter, serious espresso machine, and moka pot, this is the approach I have settled on as yielding the best tasting results.

>>60014338
you can get an electric grinder for literally the same price as a hand grinder. there is no excuse.

>>60020506
$10 coffee mate grinder is shit. Burr mill is the only way to get a consistent grind size. Manual (hand crank) burr mill is about $15. Electric can be under $40.

>>60020506
>acts elitist about coffee
>adds sweetener
lol

>>60022502
Chemex uses the exact same process as an automatic drip coffee maker, but it's $50 and appeals to autists.

>>60024466
You know, except for the ability to precisely control the temperature of the water, the evenness of the pour, or precisely monitor the time required for extraction.

Which is to say except for being able to control all the variables that matter.

Idiot.

>>60024288
a $10 electric blade grinder takes 15 seconds to grind.
a $70 handcranked burr grinder takes 15 minutes

>>60025543
15 minutes? My $40 electric burr grinder takes about 30 seconds for enough to make 5 cups.

electric blade grinders are shit. do you ever look at the grounds after brewing? see those huge pieces almost entire beans that floated to the top? that's a demonstration of how shit electric blade grinder are.

>>60025584
handcranked burr grinders are $12 on amazon.

>>60025584
>almost entire beans

Why does every hobby and pastime have elitists that foam at the mouth when people bought into their pastime at a fraction of the price?
You're basically an audiophile, except for coffee.

>>60025611
Not really since those things can easily cost $1000+

>>60025611
Except for the minor problem that particle size is directly related to how long it takes to dissolve the desired soluble compounds from the coffee onto the water as a matter of grade school chemistry, and thus self evidently grind consistency is of paramount importance in getting coffee that extracts at a relatively uniform rate.

Moron.

>>60026028
You've never even used a blade grinder.
Fuck off.

>>60026056
>Randomly chopping items into smaller particles is, at random, likely to produce a relatively even particle size
>Even though EVERYONE repeatedly points out that blade grinders produce horribly uneven particle sizes

Idiot.

>>60026079
Like I said.
You've never used a blade grinder.
Unless you're making espresso, grind particle uniformity is a massive fucking meme and if you're making espresso, you've already fallen for an expensive meme and probably own a $1000 prosumer garbage plasticky steam powered coffee maker.

a lot of people in this thread have strange or objectively wrong ideas
a burr grinder is really important for a decent cup of coffee, think about it in terms of surface area: the more consistent your grind, the more homogenous each bit's size is, the more uniformly they're exposed to water and thus extracted in the same amount of time. more on why that matters here https://baristahustle.com/blogs/barista-hustle/coffee-extraction-and-how-to-taste-it
if you want to get into making good coffee, a feldgrind or lido 2/3 is the bare(ish) minimum for this (they far outclass electric grinders priced above them, as you aren't paying for housing/motor, and they both grind very fast), the low-tier hand grinders (skerton/minimill et al) really aren't worth it once you start caring
for brew methods, french press is pushed a lot because it's older and simple, but I think a clever dripper is the best entry point. as long as you can dose beans and water by weight and control water temperature, you can experiment a lot
in terms of beans you want to find something roasted within a matter of days (coffee offgasses and loses orders of magnitude of aromatic flavors within two weeks, and a fair degree within one) with the roast date printed, and something from a single farm/location (clearer definition/notes rather than muddled inoffensive flavor). there's probably a roaster with these near you if you live in a city, else you can order beans online, but again, try stuff at cafes to get a feel before you make the plunge and buy a pound of something you don't enjoy

coffee's neither a black box or all bullshit, it's mostly simple ideas and experimentation masked by a (kind of self-imposed) image problem, but most baristas and roasters are pretty into it and would explain whatever to you if you seem curious and ask
it's pretty fun too

>>60027805
it's a clever dripper, if you can't find one there's also the bonavita immersion dripper along the same lines
the idea is that it's both immersion, like a french press, and drip/percolation brewing. the bottom bit is detached from the top but connected by a plug which stays down because of gravity, so you put a filter and grounds in, fill it with water, and leave it for a bit, then put it on your cup or something which pushes the bottom part and thus plug up, and lets the coffee filter out

>>60026127
>Unless you're making espresso, grind particle uniformity is a massive fucking meme
yeah nah cunt even french press and the like turn out far better when you've got a nice consistent grind instead of shit that's half gravel and half powder

Don't you have some Arch or ssd threads to post in?

t. grew up with blade grinders because none of us knew any better

>>60027978
these are also sick for making loose-leaf tea

I prefer tea
I use to drink coffee when I younger/a kid but now coffee doesn't settle well with my stomach a lot of the time, even the good stuff

>>60003473
I eat a spoonful of coffee grinds, chase it with a sip of hot water and let my stomach do the brewing.
