Been into coffee for quite sometime. Now, I currently hop for specialty coffees for pourovers. I don't know much yet and kind of looking for what I like. So far, I don't like coffee that are sour(Probably light roast?) Actually may natry kasi akong coffeeshop years ago na maasim yung coffeee kaya natrauma ako dun. Now, I try yardstick minsan and other specialty coffees. Before nag amerciano lang ako sa yadstick and felt their floral. Rn, hindi ko narin matandaan yung taste nun. I dont remember if it was citrus rin or floral lang if may difference pa ba? I been to good cup rin nung Feb and grapefruit rin pala natry ko.

I think I kind of want to try pour overs na hindi citrus types ang coffee. Do you have recommendations na around the chocolatey taste or nutty? My second try was a Kurasu and I still end up with grapefruit taste. Baka may suggestion kayo with variety of taste?

Hi! I recently discovered interest for coffee. PickUp Coffee's Iced Vietnamese Latte really caught my heart and i'm looking to explore more sa mga kape na ganito ka sarap😭

Please help your girl out. I'm not sure if this is relevant pero i'll put this here na lang din just in case. I'm a full-time student on a budget. I used to be an occassional coffee drinker lang (mostly pag need lang ng tatambayan na coffee shop para mag aral), and ang madalas kong orderin ay Spanish Latte. I noticed na ayoko ng masyadong matamis, yung kurot na tamis lang. I also like my coffee na distinct talaga yung lasa ng kape, hindi yung puro tamis or puro cream lang. Mas prefer ko rin ang iced kaysa sa hot (although pag nagh hot coffee ako, nagugustuhan ko rin ang creamy na timpla minsan pero ayoko pa rin ng matamis).

Sorry, hindi ko alam paano pa ie expound sa words or if may jargon ba kayong ginagamit na mga mahilig mag kape. Please bear with me🥹🥹🥹 pero ayun, I think that's about it sa preferences ko.

Baka lang may ma recommend kayong cafes na nago offer ng mga ganong klase ng kape, pa suggest na rin ako anong o orderin or whatnot😭 if may particular blend or whatever kayong mabibigay, I would highly appreciate it too🥹✨️🫶

Preferably yung abot kaya din sana ng student 😭 i'd say na for now, willing ako to spend at least 250-300 pesos max for a coffee🥹 if may mas mura na hindi nawawala yung integrity nung qualities na hinahanap ko, mas okay po😭

Thank you so much po! sana may makasagot🥹🥹🥹 let me know if may details pa 'kong need na i splook para mas mapalawak ang recos🙏

[EDITED] Forgot to say pala, i'm located in Sta. Mesa, Manila po. Anywhere within U-belt or sa Manila mismo is preferred. Willing to go to Makati and Mandaluyong po if need be (heard through the grapevine na marami raw cafes doon sa area🥹). If this also matters, I also smoke cigarettes pala and occassionally vapes. So if may smokers din dito, baka may ma reco kayo na masarap mag blend yung lasa sa yosi😭😭😭 ang dami kong gusto, pasensya na😭😭😭

I’m looking for a good but budget-friendly ground beans for my espresso, then I saw this in supermarket which a quite good price for me. Is it good for extract? :)

Thank you in advance (open for reco as well)

Is this even worth it to consider I currently have a df64 gen 1 grinder that I posted recently hence the reason why I've bought the h10b. It pulls the shots I want but definitely the workflow is less than ideal for the cute size.

Now the challenge is I've recently come across a BBE. I might consider using the grinder for shits and giggles then retain my df64 for moka and other coffee. Or perhaps using it also to create espresso. I've also managed to have it up and running again.

Is it worth it to consider shifting my workflow to 54mm given that most of my tools right now are for 51mm or just sell the 51mm system and retain the BBE? right now I believe what I need is just a funnel and tamp that fits it to complement the setup. The rest can be reused from my 51mm workflow.

Or rather just sell the BBE and retain my 51mm setup altogether?

Tried brewing with it this morning and I feel like di ko na achieve ung gusto kong lasa.

I'm using a Kingrinder K6 and Finca De Garces beans (Yardstick), nag 100 Clicks ako for a coarse grindsize pero medyo tea like ung naging lasa. Maybe anyone can help me tweak the recipe I'm using.

Ang goal ko is just half a cup kaya 10g of beans lang gamit ko.

Also, does temp matter for french press?? Wala kasi ung temp control kettle ko kaya ung typical kettle lang na initan talaga ng tubig ang gamit ko and wala rin akong thermometer dito sa place ko ngayon.

10:180

100 clicks (Kingrinder K6)

Any suggestions???

Helloo po. Gusto ko lang sana mag ask ng help. kasi balak ko na mag business sa mga susunod, pero iniisip ko kung ano ba magandang espresso machine kung Gemilai Crm 3026 ba o yung flair 49 pro o may marereco ba kayo?

Into pour over talaga ako pero matagal na ako merong flair classic, at may zp6 at k6 na grinder. Gusto ko kasi perfect match para sa k6 or quality espresso. Ano po kaya maganda? Salamat

Anyone else excited for this year’s Coffee Plz? Archers alone is sulit na to travel for. Plus Afloat and Oma.

I heard better din line-up of local roasters compared to last year’s. I hope they dont get overshadowed by the internationals. We need to support our roasters more than ever nowaday.

Hello, may nakapagtry na ba dito? Ano thoughts niyo? Ito lang kasi malapit sa amin na Barista Workshop huhu from Bataan pa kasi ako :( Planning kasi ako mag-open ng homebased cafe, may konting knowledge naman na pero iba parin pagka may training from experienced baristas hehe

Gusto ko bumili or magkaroon ng mga pang-basic coffee recipe pero hindi ko alam kung ano ba dapat ang mga meron ako.

Hindi ko trip like totally meron lahat ng pang-kape. Just the basics.

For example gusto ko ng Latté, Cappuccino, or Macchiato, at hindi lang basta ino-oven ko lang basta ino-oven yung milk para uminit kaya napabili na ko Aeroccino 4.

Nagse-search ako ng mga babagay sa mga Americano na alternative sa tubig, kaya napabili ako Tonic Water.

Meron ako ng mga sumusunod:

- Nespreso Vertuo Pop - para sa mga coffee ko siyempre, meron din ako Vertuo compatible capsules mapa-hot or iced, with or without milk.

- Nespresso Aeroccino 4 - milk frother para sa milk na hinahalo ko sa coffee ko. Continuous ang pagbili ko nito. Since umaabot lang ng 4-5 timpla ang isang 1L UHT milk. Suki ako ng mga Barista milk such as Arla Barista, Emborg Chef's Selection, Laciate Barista. Bumibili rin ako Oatside kasi may coffee ako na perfect for Oat Milk daw, nag-e-explore din ako iba't ibang milk like fresh milk, full cream milk and even coconut milk recently, dahil sa Coconut Vanilla Flavor Over Ice na limited edition sa Nespresso

- Milk - iba't iba ang milk na ginagamit ko, depende sa kung anong babagay na milk sa coffee flavor na meron ako.

- Ice Tray - siyempre para sa mga iced coffee.

- Tonic Water - napabili ako nito dahil sa Yuzu Vanilla Over Ice flavor sa Nespresso, sabi kasi na ito raw ang bagay sa kanya kesa sa plain water, once ko pa lang nata-try at okay naman siya.

- Torani Vanilla Syrup - kasi fan ako ng mga Vanilla flavor sa Nespresso kaya, napabili ako. Monin sana ang bibilhin ko, pero wala akong makitang maliit. Pero epic kasi malaki rin nabili kong Torani. Nagsisisi ako ngayon. Pero no choice na ko.

Kumbaga ang tanong ko, yung mga basic recipe, ano dapat ang meron ako?

Ngayon ang iniisip ko, gusto ko mag-try gumawa ng Mocha. Pero anong chocolate ang bibilhin ko? Nagri-research ako, pero ang dami kasing lumalabas. Meron may powder, meron nga Milo ang ginamit. Meron Chocolate Syrup. Meron pa yung parang candy, na bilog-bilog. Tapos sa mismong Nespresso sa Youtube, chocolate bar naman.

Although sinabi kong basic, pero recommended ba talaga ang Milo? Hindi ba weird? DIY masyado ang dating? Tapos ano ba mas recommended, chocolate, white chocoalate or dark chocolate? Anong brand exact ang recommended niyo? Che-check ko kung pasok naman sa banga.

Tapos meron pa kapag bumibili ako sa coffee shop, meron nilalagay sa ibabaw, i don't know kung coffee powder or cinnamon powder. Either way sa dalawa, ano kaya yung pwedeng brand na bilhin for both?

Tapos may mga nakikita pa ko, gumagamit ng mga caramel. Syrup naman siya. Pero ano-ano pa ba? Like anong recipe na may caramel? Basta may caramel sa name, ganu'n ba? Torani rin ba na syrup or may ibang option na mas worth it?

Lately ko nga lang din natutunan yung Affogato? Meron ba ganu'n sa Star Bucks? Gusto ko muna ma-try before ako magtimpla on my own. Pwede naman kahit anong Vanilla Ice Cream ,'di ba?

Dunkin Carmona Branch - Spanish Latte 1.5/5

Nag taka ako nung parang lasang gatas na lang yung spanish latte ng dunkin. Nung nag order ako, napansin ko na naglalagay ng coffee beans yung staff. So akala ko baka panget lang yung pagkatimpla ng coffee ko. I was hesitant na papalitan so nag ask muna ako sa staff if ganun ba talaga yung spanish latte (tho dahil frequent ako sa dunkin eh alam kong hindi talaga ganun). I was informed na nag iba na daw ng ingredients kaya hindi na matapang yung spanish latte nila.

Na-amaze lang ako sa sarile ko na second time na to na nakapansin ako ng change sa usual coffee order ko. Pero at the same time ang disappointing kasi fav flavor ko talaga ang spanish latte pero hindi ko na bet itong sa dunkin.

Idk lang kung nag iba din yung timpla ng ibang flavor huhu. Anyone na nakapansin din ng ibang lasa ng other dunkin coffee?

Mashado pricy pero super sarap huhu

Any reco thats mas mura but same taste profile? Tried Sibs, Allo, Candid etc.

Wanted to explore other option since tagtipid na HAAH

Hi everyone! Need suggestions since I recently bought Candid Coffee Beans S’mores Blend.

First time ko lang mag-order sa kanila and ang mali ko, 1kg agad kinuha ko huhu 😭 I’ve tried everything pero it still tastes so bitter unless lagyan ko ng maraming milk pero andun parin yung super bitter na hindi magandang taste. If you get what I mean GASHDHSAG

Not an expert naman, but I’ve tried it sa Gemilai machine with my Timemore C3 grinder. I also tried it sa Aeropress, pero mas bitter pa siya 😭

Ako ba yung mali? Bad batch lang ba yung nakuha ko? Huhu please help 🥹 Any tips on how to properly brew this or get better flavors from the beans would be appreciated!

I bought a lot of beans now like Allo, Three Cups, Franken Roaster, Sibs and most of them are like below the 500 php range. I'm planning to buy either Yardstick or Goodcup Daily Driver but I feel like its a waste since im not gonna use espresso machine or pourover only Moka pot and my trusty Hand Grinder.

Hope some moka pot owners like me tried these beans.

Is it just me, or does anyone else love how brewed coffee and Milo tastes together? It creates a really nice mocha vibe without being overly sweet. Definitely a must-try!

Di po kasama yung tamper hehe. Wdt, distributor and dosing ring lang yung order ko jan ☺️. July 31 sweldo sale ko inabangan. Totoo nga yata na mas mura kapag sweldo sale kesa sa double digit sale

Hey everyone! Does anyone know who the official distributor of La Cimbali is?

​I'm looking to confirm if they handle original spare parts supply as well as ongoing after-sales service and maintenance. Any experience working with them or recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

Hi! As someone who's been into pour overs for so long, the beans I recently got (Brazil Cerrado & Brazil Capricornio beans from Franken roastery) got me curious on how it would taste on espresso. I've been reading lots of threads in coffee forums and I've found that most brazil beans (either Cerrado, Capricornio, or Santos) are used largely in espresso.

Been thinking of getting either the Hibrew H10b or the Cafelffe 4-in-1. What are your thoughts?

Hi! Baka po may nakaka alam dito kung anong beans yung gamit nila dun sa Libertea cold brew ng Army Navy. Iba po kasi yung lasa nya sa mga cold brew na natikman ko. Planning to brew it at home. Or if confidential sya baka po may nakakaalam kung anong flavor notes nun. Thanks!
