Could you do a vid on Xbloom brewing? I have one and enjoy it, but there isn't a lot of high quality content on how to tune brews with it and it seems like there are some slightly different considerations.

Hey Lance I have the Breville Barista touch, what are your thoughts on the built in grinder? I don’t think it’s so great but not sure what to do. It’s a conical burr grinder, I’m sure you’ve used it before. Let me know what you think or if I should upgrade to a Niche or Ode brew Gen 2 grinder!

I did enjoy the video, very informative and interesting and it's good to have a resource like this that isn't just another V60 recipe. One thing I'd love for you to get into properly sometime is water chemistry. I live in an area with, what I perceive as, very very clean and soft water. How do I know if my tap water could just be perfect for coffee and what can I do to augment it? I've heard of Lotus water and third wave water and whatnot but I'm not sure it's the right thing for me. Would love to learn more about this deeply complex topic.

I can't stress enough how important this video is. I actually stopped going on reddit because I always end up more confused than informed. This really reignites the joy of making a pour over at home. EDIT: Glad to see you're a an IDLES fan.

I even thought about quitting coffee for good because I just couldn't repeat my results. One day it was magnificent, the next five days it was barely okay. But after slowly but surely tweaking all those things Lance talked about in this video, I finally got there. Now, instead of quitting coffee, I quit tweaking coffee.

It's easy to get confused from by /r/Coffee, because Reddit has some hardcore enthusiasts and experts, and mostly temporarily embarassed experts. There is so much conflicting advice there, and I almost quit coffee as well until I found these videos on YT. I am wildly grateful I didn't have to quit.

Just tried a decaf pourover at 89 degrees with a 1:15 ratio with a coarser grind size in 3 pours and its the best decaf pourover I've ever had. Thank you Lance!

Yeah, thanks for mentioning decaf! That was such an unexpectedly helpful bit for me.

Definitely one of the better videos on YT. Thank you for bringing it back down to earth. I'm just past the honeymoon phase of the rabbit hole and was really getting tired of all of the pretentious flavor note, $4000 grinder, swing a dead cat over your head at midnight crap.

@@nyanuwu4209 Trying not to be pedantic but no. Flavor is whole point, flavor notes are made up and often don't translate well across different experiences. To me they're a fin example of things that get tiresome in specialty coffee.

Always a great balance between light hearted banter & a deep philosophical discussion on the effort we seem to all put into coffee for the joy of extracting something wonderful or a bit better than yesterday. Thanks for ironing out a lot of stuff we don't really need to concern ourselves with & for the key points to start with.

Long time watcher, first-time "commenter". The time and dedication you instill in your work has slowly dawned on me (that's purely a me thing, not a you thing). I get a giggle, I learn a lot and I feel better after watching one of your videos. Kudos to you Lance, with no absolutely hyperbole all I can say is, "Love your work, buddy".

I'm a crazy coffee cook, who loves coffee. I roast and get things wrong often. I'm drinking a particularly bitter cup today because I roasted too far into second crack. It happens, and I still love coffee!

The SO Coffee nod 🩶 LOVE that place, miss that place.

I absolutely loved it, the tone, the content, the extras. It really felt like those moments when youre having a tough time and some wise person sits us down and declutters the mess and shows how to enjoy life. Thank you Lance

I love that someone finally tries to give confidence and solid, understandable, advice that you can use in your everyday life. Much love 👏

This isn't just one of the best guides I've seen, but maybe one of the best videos on this site. Exceptional work Lance.

I'm a crazy coffee kook and I crave crazy coffee Love you timeless enthusiasm and selfless dedication to sharing your experience and expertise to us aspiring home coffee kooks. Much love ❤️

Great, watched the video and now I crave coffee at midnight. Also, the fact that Lance didn't touch many other variables is exactly his point, this info is good enough for us to make good enough, repeatable coffee. I love the approach. I went to all the phases mentioned in the video and now, I just want to taste a good cup and not waste beans. I think it's important for each of us to find the balance and what works for us. Some might like to play with different brewers, some with different grinders, some with different water etc. The important thing is not to overdo it and not be wasteful. I had great bags of coffee that sometimes I wasted trying to dial in and get that 1% better cup and... it's not worth it. Coffee is meant to be enjoyed and I am glad we get videos like this, with lots of information and real advice!

Coffee at midnight is what decaf is for! Good, specialty decaf, obviously.

I really appreciate how accessible these videos are. they're flexible and informative, it is super helpful and makes me want to try more with coffee. ❤

I for sure crave crazy coffee! Very few people I meet say the same, but to the folks that do, I love ya!

thank you so much for this video really highlights how getting the basics down can get you 80-90% of the way to where you want to be. I just want to make that first 90 min of my day just a little bit brighter

Hands down the best and most comprehensive informative and practical guide on pour over I have seen. I am among those who started pour over really excited but got really lost, partly because unlike for espresso I could not find something like this on pour overs. Really appreciated it Lance!

I appreciate a simplification. I bought a Hario V60 months ago and have been terrified to use it already. This gives confidence

You can always use the little v60 jar to make a nice immersion brew and then just pour it on the filter after 4 mins and have a lovely coffee every day

Possibly your best video yet. Great work.

Thank you Lance for keeping this video short & simple, or in other words, KISS. I Love learning new things, but sometimes I have to take it step-by-step (baby steps). Since retirement 4 years ago, I have taken on yet another adventure, becoming a HOME barista. Thanks to you, Morgan, and Sir James! 🤗😘

Thanks Lance for keeping it REAL as always!!

yessir! Amazing video Lance! Easy to get caught up when theres so much information out there. You touched on a bunch of solid principles that we should stick with and then change over time to create our own coffee experience.

This was a great video that hits me at just the right time - I've been doing this enough to understand what Lance is talking about and I haven't been doing this long enough to have worked out the main idea of the video. Thanks!

Lance, this video was very informative and thoughtful for those who have felt an enormous amount of stress in this brew method. I am grateful for your content because I can easily share it to all knowledge levels of coffee enthusiasts. Thank you

Lance Hedrick video? And I'm about to make coffee? And the video is about pourovers? What a great start to my Saturday!

Consistency is the key to success.Really good advice here, thanks

KZread needs more videos like this and more people like you

WOW! I remember your first video from 3 years ago - this journey is amazing. Your videos went up from okay to top notch! Keep going!

I'm deep in the pour over rabbit holes and loving every minute of it!

Yeh, I started my coffee journey around 2yrs ago now, and this video has helped satisfy a lot of my concerns around my brewing that just never made sense. Brew styles and recipes are merely guides on how to approach making coffee, but bottom line is that it's all about what tastes great to you, for your coffee and the equipment you have. Thanks Lance!

Loved this one lance. Great points and overall a very detailed, yet simple guide

That intro was just SO beautiful and perfect, and the whole vibe of this video is excellent. I love it. Thanks for making my Monday morning a little brighter. ❤ I fell down the espresso rabbit hole so hard i can barely see pourovers from here, but heck yes i immediately clicked watch and I'm so glad i did. Someday I'll make it to PouroverLand, and when i do I'll definitely start right back here.

Love the back to basics approach man Great video as always !

This is actually the exact video I needed right now. I really appreciate you~

I rencently got in to coffee, and even more recently, pour-over. A thing that I figured out pretty quickly is that there really isn't a right or wrong way of brewing pour-over. Take some inspiration from people like Lance or James to get going, but play with it a bit as well - do what you want, see what difference it makes and note if it was good or bad. Also note that you are human and you can't expect to be 100% consistent every time I primarily use a Hario Switch and I recently had a coffee where I would let first bit of water steep for 2 minutes, drain for 30 seconds, close the switch before adding the rest of my water and then letting that steep for another minute. I cannot express how amazing the coffee tasted 😍 I then tried the same method on a different coffee and it was god awful 😆

The opening is just so relatable. Now I need to brew my coffee and chill them for tomorrow.

Thanks you so much, what a great informative. There were so many times where I thought "damn, a dialing in guide for pourovers from Lance would be nice". And here you are, clutch as always.

I’m a crazy coffee kook that runs an outdoor booth at the farmers market, and these tips were very helpful!

Thank's Lance! That's some 95,25/100 content right there !

Thanks for the guide Lance. I m often not happy with my results so hopefully this will help. Gonna try this tomorrow morning.

Butt talking is favorite kind! This video hit the nail on its head. I appreciate how it focuses on the enjoyment of coffee rather than being the over-analytical beings that we can be. Don't get me wrong, I love over analyzing my pours or dreaming about new gear sometimes, but at the end of the day, brewing and enjoying a solid cup of coffee is the most important part.

These are exceptional videos, dude thanks!

Absolutely fantastic video Lance!!! For a long time I was buying and changing to all these different brewers and filters with mediocre results, sometimes great results but those were outliers, but normally mediocre. A couple years ago I finally went back to the V60 and made sure I was always using good water (Lotus Water 😉) and a good consistent brew method and the results have been mind blowing! Starting over and focusing on those variables that truly make a difference and trying to actually understand what's happening during the brew have made the biggest difference.

Perfect video for me at this moment. Thank you.

I’m a crazy coffee kook. I fell asleep half thru so I had to rewatch. 😅 Thanks for the videos Lance!

This was the best into I've seen for a long time

I enjoyed the heck out of this video. The content was good and the cinematics were really well done.

Thanks for a very common sense approach to the pour over. You've echoed how I start my day (research on morning coffee be damned). I've had guests who rave about my coffee, then seem a bit disappointed when I show them how simple my process actually is. Next time, I'll just direct them to your amazing video!

Need more videos like this! V60 is my daily driver and now I have some more ideas to play around w/ my brew!

This video is timed way to conveniently for me, I've immediately subscribed. I've just invested in a new grinder. I used to have a very cheap hand grinder with could be adjusted, but it was very inconvenient to adjust and it didn't have any markings. I still prefer to hand grind, but I now got one of actually decent quality and one that is externally adjustable. The latter being important for me because if adjusting isn't convenient I'll likely won't do it much. I'm going to get some higher quality coffee for my next batch and start dialing in again. And this guide will probably come in handy for that.

This is like horseshoe theory with coffee nerd. Where when you get nerdy enough you recognize that no recipe is the recipe.

Lance, I love the extra attention given to DECAF in your videos, and how they take a bit of a different baseline, but still can be just as tasty! It's emboldened me to put more care into my bean purchases in that category, knowing delicious results are actually possible, as opposed to simply "good enough with whipped cream" when I tried the exact same recipe I would've done with "full strength" beans.

Fantastic video! that's exactly how I do my pourovers- same recipe and some to lots of tweaking depending on the coffee. Thanks for this Lance.

Fantastic video Lance

Genuinely super helpful and accessible!

I wish I had this video when I started making coffee at home. Great video Lance.

Excellent mini MasterClass!

a pretty good summary of your past blooming/pourover videos 👍

I have definitely become a crazy coffee kook, to the point that I got a part time job at a local coffee shop on the weekends. And Lance, you sir have made the education both fun and approachable.

Really nice distillation video, Lance!

Crazy coffee kooks. Fun vid. Easy approach. It also the tools to dial further. Dig it. I got a coworker a K0 and a v60 and he’s been enjoying it. I set him up with the 1-2-1 recipe.

I just used this new method to make El Salvador Anerobic from SW Craft Roasters this morning and its a banger! Fantastic, and its alot easier than what I used to do what was like 5 different pours after my bloom.

You know what helped me...japanese osmotic flow technique. Grinding coarser, dark roasted coffe, and 86 celsius water and you pour in the center the whole time. Simple, repeatible, and fun! Thank you so much for this video, I actually enjoy coffe now more than ever before when I timed and tried to control everything.

Coarse grind. No hotter than 95. Process of elimination and I like your process. Years of experience in a 15 minute video.

I watched this video late at night before bed and I'm really mind blown. gonna watch it again in the morning to get it in there :) (is it just me or is his water too clear and satisfying?)

I'm a crazy coffee kook and I crave crazy coffee. This video is awesome, and definitely timely as I sit and obsess over that point of diminishing returns with flavor/extraction/etc. Sometimes it's good to have a reminder to step back and just enjoy things instead of focusing on the minutiae.

This is the best video you've ever made

Enjoyed the video. Thanks for sharing.

I’m a crazy coffee kook, and I crave crazy coffee 💜💜💜 thanks for all the efforts you put in to these videos, truly impacting my life every morning.

My go to brew method lately is I start running hot water in the bath fill up the tub. And pour my medium course coffee in. Immersion brewing. Wait 3 minutes then enjoy.

Based on the video title I could see you are really taking that last post into consideration- preach brother 🙏🏿

Loved all those images of coffee when you were adding water. If it weren't late I'd make some coffee now.

I'm not sure what's more epic? Lance's videos or the stache

Thank you for sharing with everyone

Thanks Lance. Very informative. I’m coffee crazy!

I wish this video came out a year or two ago! It took me so long to realize how a lot of these factors work (and that I can change them). Big change for me was usually doing a 2 min bloom because I prefer a lot of my coffee pretty soon off roast. Thanks for this video 🙏

Thank you Lance!! Just got my V60 in today and this was perfect timing

Great video! Great information !

Thank you Lance.

the big thing that was holding back my pour over for a long time was over agitation, trying to get a flat bed. I only had decent luck with a reservoir pour over. Now I don't even give it a swirl at the end, just a quick vibration, and it's finally good.

Great video Lance. I'd just made a coffee before I sat down to watch this, and had been wondering about my coffee cups with this recent coffee I bought. Over the course of my coffee journey, I've more or less settled into a base recipe of 18g/300g, and water between 90 and 95°c depending on the roast. My grind size defaults to 17 clicks on my Timemore C2, and I go from there. I travel a bit for work, so I like to hunt out a local roaster wherever I am and buy some coffee. Sometimes the coffee draws down too quick, sometimes too slow. Sometimes it's a bit weak, sometimes it's too punchy. I tweak my base recipe to find the sweet spot. Ultimately, I've come to realise that Reddit and KZread and everyone can say what they want - but if I'm enjoying the coffee I make for myself, then I'm heading in the right direction. The only thing I haven't yet done is make the switch to filtered water. My tap water is pretty ok where I live, but I am curious to see what else I can get out of my coffee with filtered water!

Great video. You're totally right about being overwhelmed to some extent. I got a 1zpresso k-ultra as a nice upgrade, and got a v60 (and aeropress) that has fully replaced my coffee maker for the morning, and it's great and better and delicious. But I'm looking up a new recipe every 3 days lol, trying to experiment and find 'the best' way to make coffee. Finally realized I needed to get a sort of test bag, so I got a nice local roast and have been noting small and large adjustments to expand my taste and really be able to identify what drastic changes in recipe can do, so I can hopefully start to dial in smaller steps.

Thanks Lance, your videos really helped me a lot along my coffee journey. So much so that I noticed getting worse cups from making things too complicated. It’s good to go back to the basic steps and thanks for reminding all of us 🫶🏻

Thanks Lance!

These days I always have to do a double take to know if I’m watching real channel or the cracked one. Love them both!

Excellent video

You're an asset to the coffee community sir.

Thank you Lance
