Depending on where you live it's called drip coffee, filter coffee, batch brew or even just...coffee.
In this video, Josh from our Coffee Science & Education Centre grabs a trusty (& affordable) Breville Precision Brewer to demonstrate how to get maximum flavour from this brewing method.

I've just picked up a Breville Smart Grinder and Precision Brewer and I'm looking forward to tweaking the settings for the perfect brew. Going to pick up some nice beans tomorrow and then have at it. Good video mate, new subscriber.

I’m a huge fan of the Breville Precision Thermal. I made pour-over coffee for my wife and I for years, and frankly just got tired of spending so much time making two separate batches every single morning (or 4 batches with an Aeropress). The Breville is expensive, but it gets as close to the quality of my own pour-over as possible. The default “Gold Standard” automatic mode is excellent, and manual mode lets you control every last variable on a really fine level. Can’t recommend it enough!

I just got my Breville Precision Thermal, but am struggling to get extraction, even ending up with dry grounds on the edges. I put the french press screen on top of grounds (in cone filter with 64g coffee and 1L water) and finally got halfway to a good cup. Finer grind will be next tweek, as I am still using the coursest setting on burr mill...

Great and informative video as always! Could you please advise on grinding size using the Smart Grinder Pro for V60 method? I usually use light roasted coffee and grind between 46-50 as recommended, according to the machine's manual. Do you think that this is ok?

@SevenMilesCoffeeRoasters 3 жыл бұрын

Thank you 🙏 . In terms of grind settings, it is difficult to provide universal recommendations due to variations in the roast & density of each coffee & variations between grinders. As described in the video, to find the ideal setting I would suggest brewing batches using the same coffee/water ratio, but grinding slightly finer each time. If the sweetness & balance improves, then keep going. If bitterness starts to dominate the flavour, then try grinding coarser.

What settings would you recommend starting with for a medium roast using the mybrew feature?

@ntq1ty 3 жыл бұрын

Nice clear instructions! Have you any tips/rules of thumb for jumping between batch volumes? Say, I've got the ratio and grind dialled in for one cup of 18g:300g and then get visitors show up, I'd like to be able to brew a multi-cup batch straight off and won't have time to dial it in again (not to mention that as a home user, getting it wrong gets expensive on coffee quickly at larger volumes). I've seen people suggest varying the ratio as well as grinding coarser for larger batches. What would be your approach? Is the time it takes all the water to get through from start to finish a useful indicator?

@SevenMilesCoffeeRoasters 3 жыл бұрын

That is a pretty good rule of thumb that you'll need to grind a little coarser as the batch size increases. However, personally I generally don't vary the ratio on batches up to 2 litres. On commercial brewers, the brew ratios might change a little (by adding bypass water, etc) to achieve the same flavour balance of the smaller batches. It's certainly worth noting the brew time, but in the end, adjusting the brew by taste is only way to be sure.

@michaelch7529 Жыл бұрын

What brand/type of filter are you using? The white filter it came with is too big for the cone basket.

@billpiotter8190 2 жыл бұрын

Two others factors that can affect taste - a bloom phase (or the lack of) at the start of brewing and how well the incoming hot water evenly wets the grounds in the brew basket. A machine may or may not have those options.

@Scientist_Salarian 2 жыл бұрын

That’s why I love my Breville Precision. I can control the bloom time down to the second. Only machine I’ve ever used that rivals my own pour over coffee. Expensive, but worth it.

@shannonayres9566 3 жыл бұрын

Hello. I appreciate the video. Do you ever modify the water temperature to match the roast level? For example, the Breville allows you to make the water hotter or colder than what the gold setting recommends. Would you go with a finer grind size and a higher temperature? Or is it better to leave the temperature alone, and just confine yourself to one variable?

@baristadrifter 3 жыл бұрын

Temperature shouldn't be adjusted to match 'roast colour' but to match flavour :) Some coffee's are more soluble inherently and don't need much energy to extract stunning flavour, and others do require it. Roast levels certainly have an impact, but aren't the deciding factor as to why you would change temperature. Flavour is the driving factor. If it's too acidic and sour, you may raise to extract more, faster, if bitter and over-extracted you might lower the temperature to highlight more complexities and draw out less from the coffee. It really is based on coffee to coffee.

@SevenMilesCoffeeRoasters 3 жыл бұрын

I really should have written it down - from memory it was just over 5 minutes. In the Gold Cup setting on the Breville , the flow rate and pulses are preset. However, it is possible to enter custom settings in the 'My Brew' option.

Hi, I'd like a filter coffee machine for home, mainly to make 1 or 2 cups. Can batch brewers do 1 cup? It seems a batch brewer which can do many cups is over kill for me, but the automatic aspect is good for simplicity at home? The manual processes seem better for 1 cup, but more complicated. So i'm not sure if i should get a batch brewer or say the V60? Can i ask my coffee provider what they recommend for ratio and grind size for the beans i buy, then if i need to further calibrate i'll just change for each single cup i make going forward for those particular beans? Tks

@Scientist_Salarian 2 жыл бұрын

Most batch brewers can do single cups. My Breville Precision Thermal can do as little as 4oz, although it’s an expensive machine to just do that little.

60g coffee per liter is way too much for me. The coffee is bitter and thick and no matter what I do to the grind, it will still taste like crude oil. I use 35g per liter and the results are ok, but still not great. What am I doing wrong?

Ah here we go very nice! Yeah I was trying to figure how one finds actual COFFEE in Britain or Europe because most people in Europe seem to think that "coffee" is warm milk with 60 mg of caffeine. I saw one guy on KZfaq claim that coffee is served in a small 2 oz (56 mL) ceramic cup with a spoon, and you're supposed to drink with your pinkie extended! It's like no, dude, that's TEA...that's not coffee. Unless you're Jean-Luc Piccard, that's not a man's drink. The process described here -- whether you do it by manually pouring the water or using a machine as seen in the video -- results in a real man's coffee. Dark, very strong taste, high caffeine. I take my coffee the way I take my women -- short, dark and strong. 🙂

Respectfully, there is no comparison between coffee that comes from a $30 Mr. Coffee and a $350 Breville. My wife and I have the Breville, my in-laws have the cheap machine. Night and day.
