    So I tried an odd thing with my aero...and I'm gonna do it again. I put water in first. So inverted, 250g water in and then 15 g of finely (just off espresso) ground on top. I levelled it and watched each grain of coffee sink through the brew for about a minute, I then swirled the whole lot...

    Not necessarily a contradiction... you might not be liking that concentration... ultimately you will have broadly similar amounts of particles floating about in your coffee, obviously more with a longer pull gets through but the ratio of dilution is different.

    Oh dear.. perhaps its just the dilution level not being a good fit for you Give it a shot

    Morning all... supping a flat white madebwith extracts latest iteration of dr strangelove. A little too roasted for me - certainly picking up on some really thoroughly delicious sweetness, cola edge, berries, a little cocoa... but its got a slight 'dark/trad ' espresso edge which i dont tend to...

    Go for a lower output see if it helps... I very rarely deviate from 1:2 (although have been playing around with 1:5ish long shots based on conversations with roaster at cartwheel/Scott rao videos/the old matt perger coffee shot)

    Using the bottomless just means you can see how the coffee is coming out of the puck... which is tricky to know when using spouted. Youre aiming to see that the whole of the underside is coming through with coffee, and that it pools in centre to come through as one column. If your coffee comes...

    Yeah- Matt Perger is the main voice for saltiness being an indication of under extraction. Its strange that you're going for such a long shot and getting major under extract though... you could be getting uneven extraction across your puck I guess? Are your grinds pretty even? How is the...

    Hey Gareth... How's it all gone with fixing your roaster? Is multi roast sub now over do you think? I had an overabundance of coffee due to Christmas/picking up the multiroast so paused other subs- now running low and wondering whether to trigger another sub back up? Cheers

    Ignore my post in the other thread... all makes sense now!

    Hey... I got an email on jan 9th saying next installment was coming up soon... roasting on or around the 11th. Ice not received anything so assume there's been a delay?

    I did the same... nailed it at the end of the bag. I mirrored the outcome of the espresso with filter and went a higher dose for same water level as normal v60. Tbh I think it worked well even longer for filtered coffee... it was certainly a killer bean, and really highlighted how playing with...

    This is bang on... short pull on ngopi unlocks a world of sweet deliciousness. Pulling longer brings out a bit of a sickly taste - i think its the acidity. Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

    Hahaha... tbh I think it was just a delonghi rebqdged 'silvercrest'... my parents bought it for me as a Xmas pressie one year. Was atrocious.... but, without it I probably would never have really gotten down with speciality at home/the eventual gaggia so, you know, it served its purpose Sent...

    Just run the ngopi through v60.... tighter grind than normal using the espresso as a guide. This is it!!! So so weet, bursting tropical fruits, little bit of a strawberry funk, resinous ... complex, deep, rich and thick. Total total win. This bean is amazing Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

    This ngopi coffee is weird... good weird! Sip of espresso- super acidic, very sweet- a bit thin. Think I need to go finer to try to slow the shot down a bit- and maybe it'll also benefit from a shorter ratio than 1:2; help thicken it. Just poured in milk....its bloody marvellous, but still very...
