What grinder and settings are you using?

Would help with video conference calls, but 265 is fine for now.

I'm tempted by Lucid products right now.

You get the fancy filters for the aeropress. ๐Ÿ˜‚

Yeah, it's a much smaller investment and does great if he's got an existing hot water kettle he likes.

I think you would have the issue of getting closer to the beans, but might be worth a try if you already have one.

Not needed for aeropress. ๐Ÿ‘

A lot of hobbies are like this where people can start with lower cost options and then upgrade.

On my journey I was using a blade grinder for a while and I think it's a good starting place, but when setting up to a burr grinder, I recommend to not go entry level, mid level is going to yield a better investment.

I picked up the Encore ESP for the following reasons:

  • I'm lazy and would be tired of manual grinding
  • Coffee making not exclusive to me in the home
  • Nice set of burrs and easy to clean
  • Ability to add bellow to decrease retention
  • Equal to price of a months coffee if going out

For machines, the aeropress is a great low effort and cost entry to making great tasting coffee.

Great post to get a discussion going. ๐Ÿ‘

This looks like a way better interface over Synology photos which is fine, but missing the search and map feature. You need to see if they are hiring ๐Ÿ˜‚
