It does! If it takes too long to extract (too fine grind), you will get over extracted result and increased bitterness, and the opposite if water disappears too quickly and extraction time is shorter. In my experience, for light roast fine grinding and some over extraction is preferable in order to get all the flavour out of the beans, but with every new coffee I get, I adjust it to get the balance I look for in my cup (it is different for every person) Usually, adjusting the grinding for your target extraction, let’s say 3:00, is good enough to start experimenting with different level of coffee roasts!
I’ve an old gaming PC with a decent GPU laying around and I’ve thought of doing that (currently use it for linux gaming and GPU related tasks like photo editing etc) However ,I’m currently stuck using LLMs on demand locally with ollama. Energy costs of having it powered on all time for on demand queries seems a bit overkill to me…
Astrobot! Loving it so far, we started it just yesterday and trying to complete 100% levels, enjoying every minute of it! We now understand why’s last year GOTY…
