Thanks for the great review ! When you showed the idea or a level included on the dripper I said "omg" loudly because, yes, I would love that. I love to see these ideas for recipes ! Here are a few comments that came to my mind watching the video: - Totally agreed about needing to pour in circles with a gooseneck. I haven't found I needed to pour in circles with a non gooseneck kettle, making things even easier. - The waves on the shower screen help reduce water retention. - You can also steam preheat the dripper by placing it on the kettle when you boil your water (without a kettle lid). - Your second recipe is very close to something I called "paper clip" because I was hacking existing dripper with a paper clip valve. You can use N steeps, divided in equal steep times and water volumes, to maximize extraction with the least amount of total water and therefore reach very high TDS. The higher N and the longer the individual steep times, the higher TDS you can achieve. For example, with N=2 and ~5 min steeps I used to achieve 3% TDS. - You can use blooms as short as 15 seconds and still get a good bed saturation. Chris Feran seems to be a fan of those. - The valve will become less stiff with time. - Another detail. I usually start the bloom pour with the valve open. Maybe starting with the valve closes will reduce fines migration a bit, and maybe it will reduce the efficiency of prewet a bit. I'm not sure the difference is significant. Thanks again for this great resource !

I had the pleasant experience of reading this lengthy comment without having looked at the name attached to it and thought, "gee, this person has really gone deep with this after only having it for a short time and they really know what they're talking about." The valve comment maybe should have given it away but I was reading quickly. Then I looked up and saw "@jonathangagne2135" 😎 Ok, that explains it. Nice to have some designer commentary right up front. I'm looking forward to getting one once international sales open up again. I had one in a shopping basket but left it to purchase the next day and in that time things switched to USA sales only. 🤦

Thank you for this video. It made me pull a trigger on Pulsar and I'm glad I did. One of the ways I use it with light roasts is to just dump grounds in, then fill it with water off the boil, steep for a few minutes (no agitation, so grounds are on top and gravity helps with extraction). Then stir or swirl to knock grounds down to the bottom, open valve so water percolates through grounds and add any remaining water that didn't fit before. The result is strong and full of all the flavors the beans hold. It's overwhelming even but sometimes I just need that kind of brew. Oh, and if I do other recipes, regardless of the kettle (gooseneck or typical) I always just pour in the middle of the shower screen (there's no hole there). Seems to work great and the bed is flat every time.

Been brewing with this for the past week using Jonathan Gagne's recipe and this is the only thing that's convinced me about zero bypass/low bypass. I've played around with low bypass before and wasn't ever particularly impressed but the first few brews from the Pulsar were just so intensely sweet and full bodied. You can definitely taste the difference with the higher efficient extractions with no bypass water. The faffing about/workflow are overshadowed by how good the brews turn out. It's kind of nuts how good of a brewer it is. The only thing I'm not looking forward to is having to buy more filters online eventually. Not a fan of anything proprietary but maybe a big enough hole puncher/cutout could save me the time/effort lol

I love immersion brewed coffee and after my Aeropress started crazing I put some thought into replacing it with another one. However, why should I continue consuming plastic? I purchased a 500ml glass beaker for an immersion vessel and then use a simple Melitta cone filter holder to filter the water coffee mix after a two minute steep. It works perfect and was cheaper than any fancy immersion brewing system and an easier cleanup than a French press.

After seeing the final design looking so rough, you have to admire Alan Adler’s thoughtful design for the original Aeropress. The fact that you have to precariously balance this device on those crude looking “legs” while you tweak that equally unfinished looking valve is a total dealbreaker. Gagne needs to hire a design firm. But that will push the retail price into three figures.

I've considered using the aeropress but there's a lot of stuff to pack and this looks a fair bit simpler. Also if I'm making killer coffee on travel I'm going to be very popular and need to be making more than one cup per day.

I was very interested in this brewer since I heard about it months ago. However I recently got myself the brand new Cafec Deep 27 dripper and have been brewing my best cups to date with amazing consistency and simplicity. The Pulsar still intrigues me but the workflow seems rather bothersome compared to a basic cone dripper. Maybe I'll bite the bullet at some point but right now I'm on such a honeymoon phase with the Cafec that I can't imagine replacing it. For anyone with the Pulsar: how does the taste profile compare to a v60 for example? Can the brews be as acidic as a v60 or do they have more of an immersion quality to them regardless of the recipe?
@VivaLaKnox11 ай бұрын
I am a sucker for acidity and had the same concerns. Happy to report that I got some of the most delicious battery acid out of this thing!

I can't say that the results I'm getting are overly unpleasant, if anything they're usually slightly sweeter and more balanced than cupping, however that's just not what I'm aiming for with bright coffees. Would be thankful for any suggestions. Maybe the crux of the issue is that I usually make 2 cups at once in the pulsar (however all the ratios are being followed), idk.

Looks like a Difluid R2. Yup at 11:38, you can see the refractometer has the "READY" with a blue D. That's the Difluid R2.

Is this available in the market

It was available on Scott Rao's website but sold out recently. Several worldwide resellers will have more in stock soon. I suspect it will sell out quickly every time it lands somewhere until they ramp up production which should be soon too.

From what I've read, BPA-free is just a marketing gimmick. Many of the plastics that are labeled BPA-free are actually far more toxic than plastic with BPA. Consumers rarely if ever know what chemicals are in BPA-free plastic. And very little research has been done on them.

All plastics, polymers, and their byproducts leach, so this brewer would be an amazing product if it were made of glass and stainless steel instead.
