This is our second K-Classic. We had our first one for many years, so when we had to replace it, we wanted nothing else but this exact kzread.infoUgkxBrV-RbF5Nk0Rlt9i15aao-YMzqzTG8Vf model. We use it for about three people everyday in the morning. The taste and quick brew is one of the reasons we like it so much. There are so many choices of brands of coffee that we would grab what was on sale and test the different brands from there. I would definitely recommend trying different brands of coffee to find the ones you like the most because there are brands that quite frankly taste horrible.

Haha. Oh man. Remember when Keurig was all the rage?!

Used this yesterday and today to excellent results. For my 10oz (280ml) cup of coffee I use 20 grams coffee at medium fine. (I pre-heat the Hario, pitcher and cup) Give it the 60 gram initial pour with stir (I use the fat end of a bamboo chopstick), wait 30 seconds and pour 110 ml of water in that circular motion followed by a gentle swirl of the Hario. When the water has filtered through (I don't time it - just wait for the water to fully filter out) I do the same with the remaining 110 ml of water. I use a bartender spoon for the final stir in the cup. Sounds like a lot of steps but is actually very straightforward. My new mantra is 20 60 110 110. Super easy! Barely an inconvenience! 😉 This is using a Single origin Guatemalan La Candelaria light roast. Will be interesting to see how it hold up with other roasts.

I had a very similar problem, where I would pour for bloom and the water would disappear instantly and the coffee would turn into a kind of moist puck. I found out that is was because the coffee I was using was really old and had sort of dried out. The bloom was also less active because the coffee had already off-gassed a ton. If you can, try finding a coffee that you know has been roasted within the last month, either by buying a bag that has the roast date on it or maybe going to a local coffee shop and asking them to purchase a small amount of beans.

I do the same ish 😊

Awesome ty, looking forward to trying out my hario when it gets here, also cool to see you still reading and responding to comments I do have a question, I pretty much always use pre ground coffee, lazy I know but in the past I haven't really always had the energy to deal with the extra energy and upkeep/cleanup of grinding my own beans Personally, how much of the flavour profile of a coffee do you think is lost when it's pre ground? Since my one cup v60 is less cleanup than my cafetiere I'm considering spending money on a proper grinder, I've found a coffee that's become my regular and I'm not sure how much of a difference buying it wholebean will be and if it would be worth it

@therobmcgee

My pleasure to answer questions. I think for preground, it depends. Are you getting the bag ground by your local shop and drinking on it all week? If so it’ll be fine. If it’s a bag that’s sold preground I think you’ll see a stark difference in flavor.

How many grams should I use in my V60 if I have pre ground coffee?

@therobmcgee

2 жыл бұрын

I would just follow the same recipe for now and see how it tastes. Then I would suggest adjusting your water amount before adjusting the coffee amount. So if you start with a 17:1 (grams) water to coffee ratio and it seems too weak or sour, go to 16:1. And so forth. After you find that ration you can adjust your coffee to suit the size of your intended brew. For example I use a 16:1 currently and want to yield two cups, so I do 640g of water and 40g of coffee.

Hello shouldnt I first warm the ceramic v60 up?

I can't for the life of me get a good cup of coffee. I'm beginning to suspect beans and grinder. I have a 3 year old Baratza Encore used almost daily to grind 60g or so of beans; is it time to replace the burrs with the M2 from the virtuoso? Also, my wife and I traditionally like medium roasts; do you have a recommended brand and flavor for us to try? I really want to rule out the bean. Thanks!

I like Variety’s Road House, Stumptown’s Hairbender, Blueprint’s Tekton, and Onyx Geometry (to name a few). How’s your water taste? Are you using tap or filtered? Could be part of the issue. I went to FLA to visit the in laws one time and found the tap water to be undrinkable and made terrible coffee. Let me know what you find and good luck.

Right, double the weight or a little more depending on the coffee. So 30g of coffee means a 60g water bloom. 35g coffee means 70g water bloom. I think you'll find that it's just enough to saturate your grounds. And yes 17:1 but I also like a 16:1 here and there. Good question!

As someone who know nothing - what difference does it make whether you pour all temhe water at once - and what’s the point about waiting for 45 seconds etc etc?

@therobmcgee

11 ай бұрын

Great questions. The reason I like to stop at least one time is to do the swirl and flatten the coffee bed out so that the water is draining through evenly. For the "bloom" you can wait 30-45 seconds to let the CO2 out, which is supposed to A) allow the coffee to saturate with water more completely, and B) taste better because you don't have that gas mixing with with your brewed coffee.

I use this brand of filter for many, many, many years and never experienced this but, I must admit that my other cones didn't have such huge hole in the bottom.
