I'm glad you enjoyed it! If you are looking for a suggestion, I have the Fellow Clara. It's a bit pricey, but it has been absolutely awesome.

I honestly just love Fellow products, I have yet to be disappointed by anything they've made. To be fair though, I know many have been dissatisfied with their Carter line of travel mugs, as many have gotten a roasted garlic smell in the mug that they can't get rid of. But I've currently got 4 of them, and haven't experienced it once.

I'm just more curious than anything, but why do you have the boiler set for 4 degrees above boiling?

That's a beautiful looking machine, I can see why you'd want to get that! I still don't know which machine I'm going to get, thought I think I want to start with something like the flair 58 and maybe a nanofoamer.

Chemex is still one of my favorites. You first enjoy a meal or drink with your eyes, and the Chemex is easily my most beautiful piece of coffee hardware. I just love the classic look of it.

I would highly recommend taking a peak at James Hoffmann's method. I feel it has been the most efficient method in removing that sludge at the bottom of the cup.

Definitely a bit jealous.

I haven't quite gotten into espresso, but when I do I think I will go entirely manual to start. I already have a JX Pro, which should be serviceable to grind espresso. Then I'm thinking of getting the Flair. I need a smaller scale to fit the flair, so I was considering the Lunar, but it sure is pricey.

I appreciate the feedback. I do absolutely love my v60, but also always looking for new and interesting ways to make coffee. You have definitely given me more to consider. Thank you!

I love the precision down to that 0.3 lol

Absolutely wonderful setup you have there. What scale do you use when pulling your shot, and what is your final output?

Either the Clever or the Hario Switch will likely be my next purchase. It just seems like a fun new way to make coffee, and the cleanup also seems particularly easy.

Absolutely no memes please. Right now, r/games is easily the subreddit that I miss the most, and it's because it was entirely news and discussion focused. I sincerely hope I can turn to this community for most of my gaming news, and don't want to see an influx of memes.

My cat had recently knocked my clear v60 off the counter, and so I had switched to either my chemex or Stagg XF. But when I was at my local favorite roaster, they had just gotten in a shipment of red V60s, so I snagged one, as well as two different bags of Ethiopian beans.

Feels good to be back to my favorite conical brewer!

So I have been grinding in my Fellow Ode at 4.1, with SSP burrs. Getting the water up to 98C, and following Hoffmann's v60 recipe for some particularly tasty brews.

I mean when I search for communities in jerboa, if a community is in my instance it just won't have the instance listed in the name. But if I searched for gaming, for example, gaming@lemmy.ml still shows up.
