This guy is an absolute legend, I've been brewing coffee at home since 2017, at first when I started I thought it was gonna be a simple process, Just grind some beans and pour some water right? wrong! it was way way way more complicated than I thought, Back then it was way harder to find good information on the internet, it was even hard to find a reccomendation for a grinder or wich brewer to use. Right now there's way more information available online, but the thing is, most of the advises contradict each other.. I've made some really good coffee before trying this method, but I found this channel by searching something like, contradicting coffee tips, or whatever, because I was really confused by people swearing by stirring the bloom, or swirling the bloom, or don't touch the bloom at all, bloom for 30 seconds, No 45, single pour, pulse pour, melodrip, chemex, v60, kalita. high tempature is always the best! no low tempature is better. I tried this method, and it has definitely made the best coffee i've ever had in my life! and I don't see my self ever using a bloom again!, my favourite thing recently has been doing a smaller brew, like 14g vs 185. at 88-92celcius

I think your technic with no bloom works better when you have good water flow control. If you don't have good water flow control, I think it is hard to have a very slow but continuous water flow. I am using the Kelita wave drip kettle, it took me a while to have good water control. Another thing I found out with my pour-over, the water temperature has mattered the flavour. I try to use 80-85c when I want more sweet and fruity flavour and 85-90c when I want to have a more roast, dark, strong flavour. I enjoy having more videos to talk about how to play with the pour-over technic.
@TALESCOFFEE3 жыл бұрын
Glad it got you thinking about your different brew techniques! Yeah, for the single pour you have a very short amount of time to make sure everything is perfect. So it takes quite a bit of practice/skill to actually get the technique down. It seems simple at first, but it is quite complex. As for the water temperature, are you using medium dark roasts? That maybe why, you can also wait a few minutes after the brew is finished and you'll probably have a sweeter flavour at a lower temperature (of coffee)
@TingTingStudio3 жыл бұрын
@@TALESCOFFEE I think I start to enjoy to practice to control the water flow. For the temperature, I tried with dark roast, medium and light roast as well, I think the at least I feel even with dark roast, if I use 80c, I will get a little more fruity flavor.

Thanks Vincent for your videos and method - am loving the results but also I’m having more fun brewing and practicing the technique? Would love your thoughts on how you would “dial in” your brew or a new bean. What variables would you consider changing one at a time, or which ones do you think have the biggest impact on a brew? Eg would you start with water/coffee ratio, and what changes would you expect to see in the taste going up or down? Grind size? Pour speed? Final pour in middle or outside? Stir short or long? Could also be a bit of a troubleshoot guide eg if coffees are tasting like x or y, try doing z Thanks for the purposeful technique dude and for being so active on the videos and responses!
@TALESCOFFEE3 жыл бұрын
So for me when I dial in I have a set brew method that I have as my base. After that I decide based on what the gases are telling me I change the pour speed and water temperature. I never change grind size, it’s all in the pouring technique!

Ahhhhh this is a great comment. Ok so the rule has kinda changed now because I noticed the first 30 seconds of a pour don’t cause much agitation, I guess you can go back to the middle once as long as it’s before that time. . The thought where the agitation is high from moving in and out a lot is still true though. Generally I do back to the middle if it’s fast enough, I just hit the sides to get everything wet first but going back to the middle just to lift all the floating grinds. But once it floats I move to the edges and sink the rest and never go back to the middle because I aim to sink everything by the time I’m done pouring. . Where as in this video I pour down the side to hit my desired amount, it’s a bit dated I’m timing the outside pour movement to match the sinking of all grounds now!
