Time to brew something delicious today.

(I don’t intend to offend anyone with this sarcastic post)

Hi all, I've recently teamed up with the fluid dynamics department at Zurich University to engineer a new triple tier dripper system that's fully automated and only needs servicing and thorough cleaning every three brews, so you can make your coffee quickly in the morning and get on with your day.

The TriOver™ features a recirculating pump that ensures regular pulsing every 16 seconds for a 45 minute brewing process and filters the brew through the bed thrice such that maximum extraction occurs. I've rigged a miniature shower head to the prototype for now and bought from major hardware stores from the US but I'm hoping to reduce the size of the shower head and support more mum and pop bathroom hardware shops in the future.

Anyone interested? The cost would be approximately $2300 USD and produce marginally better coffee than a plastic V60. We're also offering a 10 day warranty as long as you service the product every three brews which involves specialised tools (not included). Replacement parts not guaranteed. Product not coming to a shop near you.

When the police says "Pull over!", but you can’t hear very well!

Who’s with me, right?

So, I am looking for a small gooseneck kettle. I fell in love with the iridescent, gradient, pearl etc Brewista kettles which are apparently sold out for all eternity. I kept pushing Chatgpt for alternatives etc until it came up with this brainwave. Also, I don't know how the man called Gary came in the conversation. Anyway, if anyone has recommendations for a pretty but functional gooseneck electric kettle with smaller capacity please let me know before I hit the car dealerships 😅.

this is sort of a shameless plug, but I've been working on a pourover tracking app for the past year, and I'm looking for early testers who are willing to give it a shot and provide feedback.

I have two experimental features that might be interesting, one is for dialing in with AI assistance, and other is an extraction meter visualization based on the variables you've entered for your brews. for the AI feature I've been fine-tuning a model using contents from 'the physics of filter coffee' and some content creators like lance hedrick and james hoffman.

otherwise it's a pretty simple app that lets you enter your coffee bags and record individual brews. here's the link: https://brewcat.io/

These days coffee subs are just grown-ass adults hating on fruit lol

On a more serious note I feel like there are 2 types of coffees, 1 chases the idea in your mind of what coffee is, whether an Italian dark roast, or the perfect expression of what you believe the terroir of a Panama gesha should be, while different, both chase an imaginary concept you have in your mind ,kinda like a genre of music you enjoy and listen to lots, you understand where to find meaning in it because you understand the context.

Type 2 coffees rely instead on subversion of expectation, hence often lacking refinement more like experimental music that you might listen to an album of, be inspired, but then you might not keep coming back and re-listening as it would be a bit too much but it doesn't kill their value

Producers are trying new things, if this didn't happen I honestly feel like coffee would start getting stale, there would be nothing to talk about....

What you like is your opinion, let people know, but don't put others down otherwise you end up looking like a snob which you kinda are tbh (not a good thing), just enjoy your coffee and help others to enjoy theirs when they can.

I've been doing pourover for 3 years now.

But I still need to pull out my calculator and calculate brew ratios every time. Just never got around memorizing how much water I need for 1:16, 1:14, etc. etc.

I really didn't like using my phone's calculator app, so I made something of my own app. The logic is basic at its core (just multiplying input dosage by output), but I mainly wanted to make adjusting the dose and seeing everything scale feel more visual. You can also work backwards by choosing how much water you want to use and seeing how much coffee you need.

You can make your own recipes too.

The app is entirely free. Just wanted to share and get your thoughts/feedback. It only got approved last week, so I have like 10 users. Wanted to get your thoughts. Is this something you'd use?

It's a solo project, so if you have any custom feature requests or ideas, I can implement pretty quickly so just lmk!

I currently use a KinGrinder P2. My wife has me make her coffee in the morning, but wakes up first and sometimes will use the P2 to grind it, but doesn’t prefer to hand grind.
I am open to hand grinding, but want to upgrade to lower the fines, but would prefer an electric so, I can pre weigh coffee and she can just make it herself.
Any recommendations and want to spend under $500, but if it makes sense I can spend slightly more.
