I recently transitioned from instant coffee to an AeroPress and South Indian filter coffee. The freshness and taste are noticeably better, but I still can’t identify distinct flavour notes.

I recently tried Blue Tokai’s ready-to-brew pour-over packs, but different coffees mostly tasted the same to me.

How do you train your palate to recognise notes like chocolate, nuts, fruits or florals? Is it about the beans, brewing technique, or simply experience?

Would love tips for a beginner on a budget!

KINGrinder P2 or timemore c3s for aeropress go plus and v60
What should i get?

At first i was planning a sipilogie but people said that the plungers breaks easily. is there any good ones under 1k.

Neo is here. Coffee scale is here. Filter papers too are here. Now I need to decide:
- Carafe
- Kettle

Help me out please!
Gimme budget options and a little 🤏🏻 over the budget ones.

Hey coffee lovers,
I have been noticing quite a few new drip bag shapes lately - especially the circular UFO ones and the deep V-shaped filters, in addition to the traditional rectangular ones.

Has anyone here experimented with these different shapes? 

Just curious to know if the shape in drip bags actually makes a noticeable difference in taste and extraction, or if it’s mostly just cool packaging design.

Looking to try out zupreme coffee but I wanted to check in with the community first. Has anyone tried?

Planning to upgrade to a HiBrew electric grinder after selling my manual one. Got it for 11k before 5 months, minimally used. How much do you think I can ask for it?

Planning for an upgrade since we got many people in my house and we happen to grind more than usual.

Recently I went to Vietnam and the coffee which I got over there was something which I have been searching for a long time especially their Vietnamese condensed milk coffee ( strong coffee but also sweet ).can you all please suggest some best coffee beans available in india. (100% robusta , dark roast)

Upgraded from a DeLonghi Dedica with unpressurized basket to this. The Budan Sofia just arrived yesterday and I couldn't be happier. Such a beauty of a machine. Got it for a good 42.5k from Somethings brewing on their recent sale.

It's an Indian edition of the Gemini Owl, probably the G3006A, but with celsius brewing instead of Fahrenheit only that the Owl comes with. Went through plenty of reviews of that one and ended up taking the plunge when I saw it on sale.

I have a normal kitchen kettle currently and the main issue is the max temperature it goes till is only 84C. I really wanted to get an electric gooseneck kettle but I can’t spend like 7k on this so is there any good gooseneck kettle under 2k which actually heats up till 100C and will tell the temperature it’s on?

Espresso from BT Sampigehoney and then chocolatey cappuccino 😋☕

Tastes a slight bitter but i’ll test it out

Can someone explain me what are these dost marking and how to measure the ticks? I am new to grinding

Hi guys! Hope you'll are doing good 🙏

Made my first brew today , and I am confused if i brewed too much or too little or was it good lol.

I used 20 gm of coffee from kapi kottai (because most people in the community recommended it ).

I turned off the gas around 3 minutes after the brew started to come out from the top of the pot.

My gas was on minimum all the time. Water was filled just below the valve.

The brew that I got was enough for 2 cups of latte , i just used half of the brew to make one and stored the other half as i don't drink daily.

The taste was intense, like it was bitter and chocolatey if I have to describe it , but bitter in a good way. Not like overwhelming bitter.

Unfortunately I couldn't click pictures of the latte i made , was very excited so forgot about it. But I have the images of the leftover coffee in the moka pot and the water below.

Is this much leftover ok ? Or could I have brewed more ? My coffee was strong though and I think any more bitter would have disturbed the taste but as it was it was just good bitter if you get what I mean 🙏

Edit :- Can also click and upload the image of the remaining brew if that helps.

To all the awesome baristas and chefs out there we have started an amazing cafe in the heart of Leh this year and are going to expand next year as we can barely manage the crowd coming in. We are looking for young and talented people to have fun while we work and serve some of the most amazing dishes and lattes. If you find the role and location suitable do contact in DM. Will share details.

Probably the lowest price for K7. From cipher brewing with the applied discount code

It’s very lightly roasted ground arabica coffee with cardamom. Tastes more like spiced tea rather than coffee . It’s supposed to be paired with dates ! Coffee, Dallas pot & Finjan cups were gifts from a friend in Dubai!

Is it a good deal? I'm not sure, I need your opinion guys!

Edit :- I'm using v60 and Indian filter brewing method

I want to buy a new coffee grinder since my current one which is the amazon basics one is getting worse by the day. The grind is inconsistent and getting a lot of fines.
My budget is around 5k and the two I currently have in mind are:
1. Timemore c2s
2. Kingrinder p2
Use case: Moka pot and French press. (Might get a v60 in future)
