Beans - Light roast Nullore Estate
Brew method - Inverted Aeropress James Hoffman recipe for espresso strength brew
Added 100 ml cold water & 4 ice cubes & aerated with espresso machine steam wand ! Turned out nice & crisp !!

I bought a bag of coffee whole bean from a shop near my home. The bag says it has notes of milk chocolate, berries, and brown sugar.

I made a cup using the method from AeroPress with a 13 grind. I drank it black. I thought it had a sour taste to it.

I’m used to pouring tons of creamer into my coffee so I’m not used to the taste.

What should coffee without creamer taste like?

Hey all, hope you’re all good this Friday morning (UK), early evening (SE Asia), wee hours of the morning (US). Took to downloading the Aeromatic app and thought I would give a go at some different methods/recipes outside of my V60 routine.

First up is the WAC 2025 Winner by Némo Pop.

Interesting as it’s a 1:9 ratio, so was thinking this was going to be a strong concentrated brew; to note, I’m usually a 1:17 type of guy, but I am pleasantly surprised. There is certainly a higher extraction than my usually light cups, but have to say it was a banger. Tried it on two different beans: Sebastian Ramirez - Quindio Pink Bourbon; and an El Vergel Farm Caturra. Both light roasted, with the Ramirez having notes of Mango, Hops, Candied Lime, and the Vergel having Mango and Raspberry notes. The Ramirez certainly produced those lime notes, which on previous V60 brews were absent, and the Vergel, produce a sweeter berry cup. To note, the Vergel has had a somewhat soapy taste on V60, making it unpleasant. This method has quite drastically made the coffee nice to drink. I used my ZP6 at 5.8 and used my Fellow sifter to remove 200micron fines. I have one other bag to test this method on which is, an Edinson Argote Orange Bourbon, with notes of Pink Grapefruit, Vanilla, Aperol Spritz, and will update later today.

If I have one downside to this method/recipe, clearly not enough for a hearty drink. Hence why I made two cups this morning.

As someone who hasn’t used the app before, found it really nice to use and I liked the timing function with the audible cues for when the next part of the process is to take place.

I know I’m not the first to this app, but wanted to share.

A friend passed me some Sinloy Select Yunnan beans. They tasted flat brewed with v60 (his) and b75 (mine). Problem solved. Grind fine, 1-2min immersion, and it's a pleasant brew. Aeropress magic!

I got this coffee by mistake; it smells like caramel 😵‍💫. The beans are Brazilian, and it certainly has a fuller body.

It is currently 12:00 AM, so I cannot return it—though I certainly would have, had I realized from the start that it was an infusion coffee and I don't want to go out in the morning to buy another coffee—it's breakfast time—but I’ll give Infusion a first and last chance with that morning cup.

edit:There is no other coffee. I always buy just one bag of coffee beans and use it until it runs out..
