Do you have a rough ratio of coffee to water?

Excellent.

This machine is an absolute piece of junk and you cannot trust that you will get a working unit. My friend has one,hasn’t had a problem. I bought it on their recommendation. I’ve had to have three repairs done to it already and I haven’t even had it five months not to mention the warranty is ticking away while I am busy shipping it back-and-forth to these people who can’t even take a phone call and only respond to you via email, it’s really the worst

When I use 60 grams of coffee to one liter of water in a Ninja coffee maker it is very strong/ bitter?

You are wrong on 3 things. Firstly, the Breville and Brewsly don't have a boiler, it uses a thermocoil/thermoblock heating system. Secondly, there is temperature adjustment on the Breville of +/- 2 degrees. Lastly, there is a PID on the Breville. Just trying to provide feedback, but there was almost no comparisons between the machines other than cost and build quality. You could have compared the espressos brewed between the machines blind folded. Or talked about pros and cons of each machine rather than talk up the Linea Mini because of its price/ Additionally, the lack of knowledge and fact checking between the machines such as the heating system type really made me question your competence considering you are a "coffee KZfaqr".

I TRIED NITRO COLD BREW ONE TIME. I COULD HEAR MY HAIR GROWING LOL.

I believe the people who prefer scalding their tongue are mostly older people who came of age drinking pre-ground coffee from a tin. Not the 3rd wave of higher quality and lighter roast. With the tinned coffee, you need it hot to not taste so bad. You’ll hear the same people say the specialty coffee isn’t ‘coffee’

Don’t ask me to subscribe right to beginning let’s just watch this video and see what happens here❤

On one hand, I’m really wanting a very hands-on brewing method that isn’t a pour over…on the other hand, I get annoyed at cleaning a French Press, let alone this -.-

You had me at nitrogocize:)

Yes I use a scale and two of them. I put them side by side and they are even a gram difference. I use one in my roasting shop and the other in my coffee bar.

I'm curious about the taste profile if there's any significant difference between flavour clarity / body. The ESP has a bit higher RPM so that might translate to lower clarity and higher body (which is actually what I'm currently looking for since I have high clarity grinders already).

Wrong! The Opus is just more complicated to dial in maybe due to the micro adjustment but it actually has more granularity so you can adjust the grind size more precisely for espresso!

When you add the mesh filter, do you push it down into the hole? I can’t tell in any instructions online. I wasn’t sure if grounds would get past it if it was pressed in and slightly wrinkled at the sides. Very helpful video!

I would have liked you to talk about the impact on brewing times, which seems important to me because besides the porosity of the filter, it is the second component which has a major influence on the taste.

I got this on sale for about $1400 USD

Got a Gen 2 with SSP burrs included. Pretty damn excited

You had me laughing on that 3rd recipe section. I'm sitting there watching you stack the Clever on the carafe like "Oh, he's going to show us the hidden internal release mechanism now... ". Good on ya for leaving in elements of what makes us all human. Nice touch and great video.

Thank you so much! Today I bought mine, I really didn't know how to use it but you explained so well.

Love the Video Hate Your atittude… - Da una Hueva horrible escucharte - jajajajaja pero es un gran video. ¡Gracias!

Sor,, I

Now I understand my grandmother’s old stove, top coffee, percolator

Best review of this machine, I’m sold

Lol, this guy making mountains out of molehills. “I don’t like going outside, cuz the sun can be so bright sometimes. I mean it looks cool, but there are just so many pitfalls” - this guy.

You mean to say Dark roast good for espresso beans, like cappuccino, Latte?? Light roast good for another black coffee bean's like pour over etc??

I want these cups 😳

I do have one comment. The water tank. I have over head cabinets. Id have to pull the unit out on those rubber feet everytime. And my worry is splashing getting everywhere with the water reservoir. Also I was wondering what seperates the water reservoir from the rest of the machine.

Question? If the gold cup standard is 205 with the coffee cut medium. Then, would the packed coffee need a rougher grind or a higher brew temperature? Seems redundant to me to cut coffee medium for a non flower taste and pack the coffee tight. Just asking.

80 bucks!? I found one on temu for $22.50 ☕

man i'm so curious but very skeptical it'll be cool. I don't need a portable machine anyways lol. I just do thermos pourover if I need to grab coffee with me.

I have used a French press for many many years and i have yet to encounter sludge or bits .i do it the basic way the Bodum instructions say ,no problems ,no issues just great coffee every time

Really enjoyed the review. It was very personable and easy to digest. I appreciate the straightforward and honest feedback for those of us interested in this machine. Cheers

I make pour over coffee with an old Melita plastic cone filter holder that is probably 45 years old. It makes delicious coffee lol.

Hi Steven, loved the video! Im in between this and the Profitec 400 or 500. Any thoughts?

When you pulled the plug out to release the brew, I chuckled.

Not an authentic recipe

After a lot of research finally bought a Mignon Zero grinder, it's a amazing piece of art. However I've been struggling with the very little amount of information about the different settings in the dialing knob. I couldn't find so far any microns per mark chart (from zero point) for example. In some cases I saw information about the 3 full turns in the dial (from zero point) being the total range of settings from turkish to french press (0 to 1400 microns), and some others that mentions that is only 1.5 full turns for the full range (again, 0 to 1400 microns). So, pretty confused right now, is there any piece of information about this? Is the full range for the Mignon Zero 3 full turns to the dial knob?

Fuck

I'm totally confused. You seem like a Kevin barista. I respect your opinion of course. Maybe put a mind set on as a veteran. Ohh ouch happy brewing you "k"ant!!

I would really love to hear your opinion on Flavored coffee beans, like those made at Bones coffee.

And excellent presentation. You gave me all the info I needed. I use a French Press having lost my drip coffee maker to age for the third time. I was thinking about Pour Over as a way to make a quantity of coffee if I have visitors (a rate occurrence). I don't mind metrics in measurement even when I have to refer to a conversion. And I figure, if it floats your boat at least we're getting down the river.

230CAD…. FOR A KETTLE yikes! (The fellow one)

There's a stand for the steadiness issue, plus wacacco has a pressure gauge for it now too

I think relying on wifi to control settings and removing the buttons is a step backward. I almost got this due to a good discount today (20%+10% for first time buyer) at Chris Coffee, but due to that wifi control with no direct button, I ended up buying the ECM Mechanika Max. The wifi option is good for easy initial set-up and firmware upgrades in the future (assuming they will continue upgrading it). A new technology implementation will always have bugs and issue and without direct controls on the settings is a bad idea.

Black rifle is bad MRE coffee. Nasty brand.

You can do as good with a cheaper machine.

Deathwish is also pretty bad.

I noticed that you said to warm your water to 195 to 205 degrees. Does it work if you use room temperature water? I'm going to be drinking it as ice-coffee.... Or is it that the hot water serves to 'activate' the brewing of the coffee?

I just get that blue mountain coffee from Jamaica.
